Jabari Parker

I've been saying it for a long time. Just say no to Parker.
 
It could happen, or it could be Chicago is trying to up the asking price from another team and using Kantet rumors to do it.

The only value Parker has in any trade this year at the deadline is for capped out teams looking to get off some salary that Chicago might want to take on in exchange for future 1sts.
 
This trade seems to make sense for all three teams:

Kings get Kanter and Courtney Lee
Bulls get Zach Randolph
Knicks get Jabari and Koufos

Kings want to make the playoffs and Kanter & Lee would help them. The Kings have a ton of cap space so taking Lee's $13 for next year really isn't that big of a deal.

Bulls save some money and dump Jabari so that makes them happy. Maybe they squeeze a 2nd from NY in this deal.

Knicks want to shed future salary more than anything. If Jabari fits well, they can bring him back. More than likely, they just let him walk in the summer.
 
No idea why the bulls and Knicks would swap parker and kanter. Kanter seems like a locker room cancer and I'd rather sit on my hands unless they throw in some picks
 
Jabari supposedly said he wondered what it’d be like to play for the Jazz. This year is going to be good for him long term if he gets some self awareness and commits to winning basketball and work ethic. I’d be interested bringing him in next year on a cheap make good deal... not interested in trading for him as there is no upside on his current deal. Maybe a two year deal at the min this offseason... like Nerlens got. Play well in a winning situation and change the narrative around him.
 
I hear Erdogan wants him. I bet they’d jump on that pretty quick tbh. GMs missing the obvious connection.
Erdogan no doubt wants him, but what’s he giving up?
 
Kashoggi murder tapes?
Cash?
Kurds?
2.0% GDP on military?
Maybe cash, but Chicago is under no pressure to move. NY may want to take a flyer on Jabari, but Chicago doesn't want what Erdogan's offering.
