Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

If I'm the Lakers, there is no way I am giving up those 2 fitrst round picks in a deal for Kyrie unless he agrees to sign an extension immediately after the trade is completed.

Yeah, I’m sure he will if that was on the table though.
 
The nice thing is that we really aren't, not unless we get a good value for him. We can keep him or move him later if we want. The big concern is that right now is his peak value and he supposedly has a lot of suiters. The secondary concern is that he has redundancies with Kessler but isn't really superior to Kessler at anything but an occasional corner 3.
This is the perfect response.

That's why he wants to get moved. They would have his bird rights and pay him this offseason... or give him an extension.
 
I think it would be Conley to Brooklyn (maybe Sexton if they are looking forward) with a mix of KO/Beasley/JC/Vando going to Brooklyn/LA. We may take Harris' contract and Russ. I think they would want to try and win with KD before blowing it up and we can help put a bandaid on this.

Kyrie man... what a guy.
 
I actually respect Kyrie for giving them a heads up that he wouldn’t re-sign there. Now they can get something back for him.
Okay... but don't. Ky knows that he can't get paid in a place he wants to be. So he forces his way out now so that the team has his bird rights. He knows he was gonna be left with getting paid a little more over a short period with Brooklyn or trying to get a team to do a sign and trade... or taking the MLE somewhere for a year where he wanted to be.

This was not a favor to the nets... this is Kyrie thinking about his money... full stop.

At least this way the Nets can get something for him even if at a discount. If he walked this summer they would have nothing in return.

Brooklyn should have paid him then.
 
Hey, at least Irving said he was going to leave instead of someone saying he might stay and then in the offseason go to a bunch of different organizations for meetings, wouldn't even go to Utah for a meeting at all, and had a recently signed Rubio fly in from Spain to waste his time at thus person's house.
 
Do they need a middle team or can they trade directly? Lakers and Nets I mean.
Do they want to reunite Russ and KD? If not then they need some help.

Toronto could step in here... Utah... maybe some others I'm not thinking about.
