For what??? I'm always clicking around looking for scenarios in the trade machine, to the point where I'd say I probably won't like whatever move they make.
It'll probably be a young player plus some assets for an upgrade of that young player. Not sure if I'm crazy about that.
There's 11 players under contract for next season; 7 Of which (Hayward, Favors, Gobert, Burks, Hood, Exum and Lyles) are probably seen as untouchable (not if I was running things but.. anyways)
The one player I'd look to build that type of deal around is Trevor Booker, someone out there could use him.
I know this thread is mostly about the Jazz being 'buyers' I ask why not be sellers?
If there's future assets to be had. It'd be quite the score to land a 1st round pick in 2018,2019 or even 2020 for cheap IMO. Plus selling right now would boost this years draft pick, and there's plenty of excuses ready-made for a failed playoff push this year -- Plus next season the playoff push will be very real and that's ultimately what matters.
My issue with buying now is couldn't these holes could've been fixed in the off-season?? Why pay more, now, just a few months later, because you didn't have the vision to obviate these issues in the off-season???
Tibor Pleiss appears to be just as NBA ready as undrafted Free Agent Robert Upshaw... What a joke -- the plan was to go with league minimum players behind Rudy?? I see that as some sort of concession from the FO, TBH.
I don't think they'll do much tbh. Just stringing the fans along here. The time to strike was in the offseason.
I do hope they trade Ingles and Pleiss for a pack of bubblegum. Get them off the books for next year. there's so much cap space, cut those losses and try again, the replacements will surely be better. **** I can find younger projects that are better players, tbh.
