2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

infection said:
It’s a hard argument to say SLC isn’t objectively better, easily, than the following NBA cities:

Milwaukee
Cleveland
Indiana
Washington DC
Charlotte
Detroit
Sacramento
Minneapolis
OKC

I know the first response is “but the diversity,” by I’d wager that anyone initially concerned about that who has lived here would be picking SLC over the above cities at a rate that far surpasses what would be expected.

Maybe Charlotte is more debatable.

Regarding diversity, im pretty sure than im a minority where i live in slc. Everytime i go to the park near my house or the walmart near my house I would guess there are about 15% white people at those places. My street I live on is the same way. Many asians, quite a few black people (like first generation immigrants), and tons of polynesians and hispanics. Very diverse. Having said that, there is still hardly any black people like the black people in the nba are. Most all of the black people who live around me are people who just got to america.

It looks like they both have only worked out for Charlotte, Portland and Houston.

I don't doubt you, but I find it odd they only workout for #2, #3, and #4. when the widest range we hear is 3-9 and usually 4-7. I wonder if the mystery helps or hurts them.

If I am Detroit or Orlando and they start putting weird stipulations on their workouts with me, I'm flushing them. Of all of the players, those two are the ones I need an intensive workout with the most.

Okay, here goes....

Cam goes at 4 to HOU.
Jarace goes at 5 to DET.
Ausar goes at 6 to ORL.
Jazz move up to 7 for Amen.
Black goes at 8 to WAS.
Hendricks or Dick goes at 9 to IND.
Now the Jazz need to buy back in the lottery for Bilal, Bufkin or Keyonte George. Maybe the Jazz can move up to #7 with the Laker's pick and keep #16 and #28 to make a move up for Bilal or Keyonte.

I want no part of KG. He’s a bad fit next to Markkanen and Sexton, THT, JC. Why on earth would the jazz want him?

I would absolutely not trade that pick to move up 2 spots.

So you think the 27 draft in the 5-15 range would be better than the 6-7 pick in a loaded 23 draft? And for all we know that pick could end up as a second round pick. Imagine we trade a future second well down the road for a Thompson twin, Walker or Whitmore.

Pretty much.

I highly doubt we can get 2 or 3 without 2 future unprotected firsts or top 1 protected and 9th.Then on top of that a minimum Ochai or Kessler and taking back a lesser older role player. We are not doing that imo.
Now maybe we can get 5th for 9 and 16, because the depth of this draft could prove to be Detroits motivator. That, and non shooting wing playmakers point forwards probably don't appeal to them. if Cam goes 4 and both twins are there at 5 Detroit is the target trade partner imo.

You’re worried about fit with THT and JC? There’s a 50% chance neither of them are here next year.
