Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

So does anyone think Jazz will make more trades

If they make the Lakers one I think they are done... maybe a financial move like sending Doke to someone with space or an exception for some monies or something like that. I think we are chasing the whale deal.
 
I realize that these things can get derailed over dumb ****, but I really think the Jazz should try to get guys like Max Christie, Naz Reid and Troy Brown thrown into a deal like this. Maybe they don’t work out and we move on next year. . . but I love the idea of trying to develop some of these guys and see how they perform under Hardy. Maybe find another hidden gem.

Utah should not be the one sweetening it tho. That's on the Lakers. They are getting a ton back for just one pick (hopefully a swap too, those things are left out in the major early reporting talks often).

This is the year for it though. I’m opposed to seeing the Pelicans luck their way into a top 4 pick because the Lakers suck this year. Would much rather see both of them out of the top 4 and the Jazz end up swapping for whichever pick ups lower.

View it as keeping the Pelicans from getting another high draft pick instead of helping the Lakers.

No one will ever utter the phrase "I can't believe we helped the Lakers win the title by getting the DeAngelo Russell!!!"

Best part of this whole thing. . .

Lakers probably could’ve had Conley, Clarkson and Bogdanovic for what they’re about to pay for DLo, Beasley and Vando.

And, they could’ve had them from GAME 1. Tell me that swapping those three for Westbrook before the start of the season doesn’t dramatically change the trajectory of both teams this year?

I mean, I guess. It'll be quite interesting what will unfold before trade deadline.
 
I get the feeling this is going to be like the Donovan trade where it seemed like the NY deal was all but done but then something crazy happens.
 
My guess here is that despite the league-wide interest, Ainge was only getting offers of second rounders for Vanderbilt. In Ainge calculus, Conley's stock will never be as high again, and he prefers the first-rounder that has a chance of being very high to a cornucopia of second rounders.
