What's new

Who could we get to get better via trade?

They want a first rounder though... pretty well documented. Otherwise there are like 20 teams that probably would have traded for him already.

I was on board with him. Great as a small ball four and would add a "don't eff with us" guy.

Give them the 30th then, which is effectively a 2nd rounder anyway. I highly doubt they'll get more than that, look at what Nurkic and Ibaka have been sent for.
 
In case anyone is interested in pj tuckers stats:
28.5 minutes per game. 7.0 points per game (41% from the field, and 33% from three. 1.4 free throw attempts per game), 6 rebounds per game and 1.3 assists per game.

Definately wouldn't give up a first rounder for that type of production.

He is a free agent at the end of this year as well.

I would probably rather just develop lyles instead, and lyles is under contract until the 2019 season and makes 2.3 million, 2.4 million, and 3.3 million for this year and the two years after this one. Plus lyles has more upside. You have to watch him play to appreciate his impact.

I think favors will be healthier after the all star break and JJ has looked good at the 4 as well and we are stacked at the wings when hood comes back..... No to tucker tbh.

Tucker can guard three different positions, and is averaging great rebounding and steals stats per 36min. Phoenix had every desire to play TJ ahead of him this season, but he hasn't let it happen. He's had another strong season.
 
What about Diaw and JJ for markieff morris?

I want JJ on this Jazz team come playoff time. He's one of the few players on this roster that I trust when the going gets rough.

I'd rather get rid of most of our bench players than JJ at this point.

I kinda want Tucker as our bruising wing-defender to give the Durants and Kawhis of the world some grief. He's got a thick frame, plays like an adult out there. Has a great contract.

I really, really don't think they'll be able to get a first round pick for him though. But I'd definitely send them filler plus a 2nd for him.
 
I disagree

it's pretty consensus across all Phoenix fans, and writers covering the Suns that he's been playing well. Why else do you think he's garnering the attention that he's garnering? If he was sucking a fat one, no one would give a **** about him.

This is like when Bill Simmons asked out loud how Joe Ingles is still in the NBA, when he had already put together two good years for the Jazz.

I have literally never heard his name mentioned this season except on jazzfanz
 
go check twitter.
Don't have it.
We can agree to disagree though. I'm cool with you wanting him and me not wanting him.
 
I actually wouldn't mind trading for Jahlil Okafor. The problem is I believe we all know we need a stretch four. I just think for the asking price it would be worth a shot. He did average 17 and 7 last year in his rookie season.

I'm probably going to get shut down but a lot of people liked him before the draft last year.
Set aside the fact that he sucks, what reasons are out that here that make sense for the jazz to trade for him??
What about Diaw and JJ for markieff morris?
Hell no!!
I just feel like none of these dudes change a playoff series.

Agree
 
Overheard Dennis Lindsey at the City Creek Apple Store trying to negotiate a deal for Corey Maggette or Jimmer Fredette. Followed him to the food court. Will update soon.
 
A guy I have always liked is Ilyasova. 6ers have young studs that pretty much play the same position as Ilyasova in Simons and Saric. Maybe the OKC first round pick? Would be great coming off the bench playing next to both favors and Gobert.

Illyasova would be interesting, but the Sixers have said they want to re-sign him. He fits really well with their team long-term.
 
From my buddy last night.

"Why the **** are they playing Okafur? He sucks so bad. **** that guy. He can't stop anyone. I can't imagine there is a worse defensive player on any roster."

Yeah, but let's get this guy, WC.

There is people on this board that talk **** about Hayward. By that logic nobody else in the league should want him. Dumb logic.

The Jimmer! All he needs is a chance in a Jazz uniform!

No ****, Sherlock. But considering I myself, every other person with a brain here other than you, and every Sixers fan on their forums wants him traded, I think that's saying something.
 
OK here is my 2 cents

I know this is contraversial but trade favors and Burks plus draft picks for cousins and collision.

A front line of gobert and cousins would be awesome. Cousins is a low post scoring threat. There is enough vets on this roster to keep cousins in check.

Back up center make a play for WCS.

Darrin collision
Dwill if he will accept the back up roll

Convince nowitski he has a chance with the jazz for 1 last playoff push backing up favors and gobert

My favorite playoff team would be

Hill, D Williams, exum
Ingles, Lou Williams
Hayward, Johnson
Favors, Lyles
Gobert, wcs, diaw

Or

Hill, collison, exum
Hood, Lou Williams
Hayward, Ingles
Cousins, Johnson
Gobert, diaw
