Does Lauri Get Traded?

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

Golden State hasn't traded all that much.

No but they’re usually heavily favorable on their side.

No but they’re usually heavily favorable on their side.

Ehh, I guess? The Wiggins trade ended up being good for them, but it wasnt a homerun.

The Chris Paul trade ended up being a decent way to get off a mistake, but they may lose a first rounder because of it.

Overall they have just done pretty safe trades. They havent put themselves out there.

Breaking down the Lauri Markkanen extension situation

The All-Star forward becomes eligible to sign a lengthy and lucrative extension with Utah on Tuesday, but there are a number of factors at play.

Jazz seem to be letting it know today and tomorrow may be the last days you can get Lauri.

How so?

I think the "not this week" was quoted in a weird way when he just meant it's not getting signed Tuesday.

I would be fairly surprised if contract negotiations dont get handled this week.

We've had all summer to negotiate. I'm a little surprised we haven't already agreed to something.

Maybe Lauri is saying I don't want to tank. Get me some veteran help.

 

[SoberasHotRod]

The most likely scenario, based on reporting, is that Lauri signs the extension on Wednesday. However, if that has already been agreed to then it could have already been announced.

The fact that the extension hasn't been announced yet could mean nothing, but there are two other possibilities:

1) The Jazz are waiting to agree to the extension in order to wait out the best possible trade proposal
2) They are still negotiating the extension. Most likely around total contract value.

If they are really still negotiating the extension then I do wonder how long this could drag on. I'm sure they both want to get something done before camp starts, but I'm not sure there is any pressure to get something done before then.

These guys are all spinning quotes of dudes with no context. I had an interaction with the Warriors Athletic guy today. He won't sign Tuesday cuz he wants to be here and will sign later this week (I hope on Wednesday as an FU to all the dumbasses online talking out their butts).

I think numbers are basically agreed upon. I know he is eligible this week for the extension but i don't think they are prohibited from talking about it. We have other business to do potentially once this is wrapped up so I'm sure we'd like to have it done.

The Stock market tanking puts less money in Ryan's pocket. This may affect things by dragging the negotiations out or it may quicken things.

They were allowed to start negotiating with him the day after the finals ended. They could have announced the extension then. It wouldn't have been official until now, but tons of stuff gets negotiated and announced way before it actually happens. I do think the Jazz have been interested in fielding calls to get more information on his trade value. I hope that we aren't quibbling too much over value, but I do think that's a real possibility since there are several different ways the deal could get done.

I agree that it likely will and personally hope that the deal gets done quickly this week so that we can all move on.

DA may want to keep the market frozen due to a move he wants to make after Lauri signs. This would also explain the holdup on our other contracts.

Or then DA is bluffing and would rather see the trade go down now.

Or then DA just enjoys bullying the markets.

I think keeping it open until Wednesday or agreeing in secret is smart. I think the fielding of offers actually ended weeks ago but GS still thinks they can make a play. I think we know they either don't have enough or won't give enough and had some convos with other teams and likely know what could be on the table if Lauri extends and is traded later (this season or most likely next offseason). I think we'd see some "Lauri kinda pissed" type of reports from his camp if they weren't on or very close to the same page.

I neglected to mention parts 1 and 3 in my post and I think they are relevant. They may be up to something or they also may like messing with people.

There's probably two offers on the table, one if he signs on Tuesday and one if he signs any other date. They wouldnt be announcing an agreement because he probably isnt going to agree to anything until he actually signs. Im sure when they actually sit down and iron it out, there are probably some minor details (incentive structures) they will negotiate on then get it done within a day or two.

There is pressure on the Jazz to get it done within a reasonable time frame. I doubt all the free agents/rookies we want to sign like not having their contracts not be official. They also might be on someone like Okoro, or some other free agents.
