Less, crazy conspiracy theory. They refuse to bring us in as the third team getting Niko because they dont want a team they are competing with for a playoff spot this year and next to get better.

If so, we better get in the conversation on Middleton.

Yours is far less dramatic. My conspiracy theory makes for a good daytime soap opera plot.
With that said, you are probably right.

Can't punch what you can't catch. Mirotic would be safe for a couple months at least.

Favors and the moniker for Anthony Davis and a 2nd rounder.
C'mon man. We at least go to throw in Joe Johnson to make the salaries work
OK but only if they give us another 2nd rounder for DL to savor.

• Dario Saric
• Otto Porter Jr.
• Niko Mirotic
• Evan Fournier
• Bazemore/Ilyasova/Belinelli
• Middleton/Parker
• Surprise move that is as shocking as the Pistons getting Blake Griffin
Lots of options that the Jazz could (should) be looking at. No need to panic and overpay for a guy. Go get a deal that you’re happy with. Looks like Blake Griffin was the first domino to fall. Might get a little crazy here pretty soon.

Kevin O'Connor from The Ringer said the Pistons are targeting Hood for Stanley Johnson and a couple other publications have said it too...this can't be true, right? Or at the very least, it's SVG leaking that ****.

Why does Saric keep getting mentioned around here? I've missed both the reason and the answers. He seems like a great fit in Philly.

Only because I was reading an article somewhere that they might quietly have him on the trading block in an effort to sell high and put a different type of talent around Simmons/Embiid. Can’t remember where I came across it. I think it was a little blurb from a Pennsylvania local newspaper. I’ll see if I can find it.
Okay
Jazz get Mirotic
Pistons get Hood and JJ
Chicago gets Stanley, leuer and a 2nd from both teams.

As far as I know, it's really raw speculation. He'd be a great fit with the Jazz (stretchy + playmaking), and I know there has been some discussion about him being a potentially moveable piece for Philly, particularly because of Ben Simmons. One of the big draws with Saric is his playmaking ability, and that's pushed to the margins a bit by Ben Simmons. Could be they can trade him to get someone with skills they are in greater need of.
trade hood favors for gordon and fornier.
why would magic do this? cuz they are the magic. they always do some weird trade. it's our turn now!
