OFFICIAL: Trade Deadline Thread

My main fear here is that there is no indication the FO is forward thinking.
DWill trade and the acquisition of a lot of solid, young talent, accumulating a bunch of vets set to expire at the same time (Marvin being the exception). This summer will reveal just how forward thinking the Jazz FO has been/is.
 
The general mood according to Marc Stein is that the Jazz/Clipper deal won't happen. I've always thought they should try to get a third team to take Butler and a pick from the Jazz and give back something to the Clips.

Example: Jazz send Butler and a pick to Minny for Roy's contract and a pick from Minny, which we can give to the Clips.

Good point. My question is who is a FA or even a RFA this summer? Who could we go after?
 
Good thing we kept our vets values up eh Frank?

Lmao.

Told you guys so.

They have no value.

I guarantee teams want Burks, Hayward or picks with them to make a deal. Point is Al and Paul have neutral value.

That's why no deal is going down.

I'm fine with no deal but stop giving the majority of playing time to the vets and starting five guys that won't be here next year. Lol.

I am with you on that one.

We'll see how it goes this summer, and I think it's likely only one of Al/Paul is brought back but my nightmare is basically that our Offseason looks like this:

Al re-signs, Sap walks (no S&T), Mo re-signs, Foye re-signs, we draft two guys who don't get much if any PT, Burks and Kanter still get too few minutes, and we're about exactly the same next year as we are this year except without any really tradable assets.

I want to believe you gvc. But I'm pretty sure I was told last summer that this tradedeadline was where all the action would be. And last trade deadline I think I was told it would be the summer......

Rather than continuing to get my hopes up, I will just accept that the Jazz are who they are, and thats not bad.
 
Sees to me that we're content to let Sap/Al test FA and take them off the books without taking anyone else on. I think the FO wants people who want to be in SLC vs. just traded here.
 
@ESPNSteinLine: Eric Maynor going from OKC to the Blazers is 100 percent happening, sources say

Power shift.

Wow what a boring day.

It goes beyond fee agents, as there will likely be teams looking to dump players up to the trade deadline with the new luxury tax coming into effect next season. What we'll see this summer is how they fill out the roster (whether the team is handed over to the young guys).
