Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I don’t know that LA goes for it but this actually solves multiple problems. First, it subs out what I think are the two weakest links in the starting lineup when you consider our makeup as a whole and what direction we need to go. Second, it actually fills both those holes because I’d just start Morris and Mann. Then you get a good bench shooter. His contract sucks, though, but he’s got value in that role. The only thing that would make this trade better is if you could squeeze NAW into it, then you’re looking at Ryan saving another $12M with tax and everything.

We all know it's all about saving Ryan the Benjamins.
 
Ive always been a vocal supporter for Conley and it seems there might be a market for him but I'd trade him for a bag of funyuns just to get his contract off the books.
 
Who says no to this:

Jazz In: Isaac
Jazz Out: Conley

Magic In: LeVert
Magic Out Isaac

Cavs In: Conley
Cavs Out: LeVert

Works on Trade Machine and saves the Jazz $5m

I don't think his contract is that bad. Only two more years and the last year isn't fully guaranteed. I think he'll still be fairly productive next year.

I think a lot of teams are waiting to make trades so they can see how the first wave of free agency plays out.

Once guys like Durant, Irving, Beal, Lavine, Ayton, Bridges, and Brunson make their decisions I assume that we’ll see a lot more activity.

Apparently teams have already started to prepare potential trade packages for Kevin Durant if he becomes available. I’d guess that Chicago, Toronto, and Atlanta are 3 of the teams that are interested in Durant. Which I think definitely slowed down a lot of the momentum on a potential Rudy Gobert trade.

That and teams waiting for the new cap to be 100% set, contract terms to settle, numbers to sort and solidify, etc.

Trades are coming

It's guaranteed for like 14 million. That means any team that trades for Conley is either going to have to be willing to eat 14 million, guarantee his total contract to avoid wasting 14 million, or will have to spend a 1st round pick to get off the final year of his deal. It's basically guaranteed.

Brooklyn might be even better without Kyrie.

Simmons
Brown
Joe Harris
KD
Claxton
Seth Curry
Mills
Cam Thomas
Sharpe
Whatever is brought in for Kyrie

They'd need a second scorer desperately and would have a tough time winning games without KD, when he's on rest management, imo.

I can't stand Kyrie so I think it's addition through subtraction.

Brown and Harris can spread the floor for KD and Simmons. Cam Thomas is a player with a bunch of scoring potential.

If Brooklyn can strike gold with vet minimum type guys provided that Simmons comes back near his old self, I think they are dangerous. I bet they get THT, Nunn, Stanley Johnson, and a pick out of LA too.

Kyrie is one of the elite scorers in the NBA, he'll be a huge loss if they move on.

Brown averaged 9 ppg and is an extremely low volume 3P shooter. Harris is good but not great outside of his shooting. They wouldn't have another other than KD that could score consistently or create their own offense.

There's a reason why the rumors today have been that if the Nets move on from Kyrie they're also likely to move on from KD too.
