Reggie Bullock could be a nice pick-up, esp if we end up moving towards running Donovan as our starting PG.

You understand that schedule difficulty is a cumulative issue, right? The problem with such a heinously difficult travel schedule is that the usual winnability factors in games like those listed above get negated. In a sense, pointing out those games actually illustrates why the early schedule...

I think my biggest issue with him is that he seems to just be talking full steam ahead allllll of the time. I get that he's a broadcaster, and it's his job to talk, but there's still an art to letting the game happen as well. I don't know, he was just really bugging me last night, and I wanted...

I don't understand why the hell everyone likes Mike Smith so much. I think he is awful.

You do know Shamet was far from the centerpiece in the Harris deal, right? Landry doesn't land you Tobias, haha.

I'm not singling anyone out in my remarks. It seems like there is a widely held view that DL has sat on his hands, and continues to do so. I think that's a demonstrably false take.

I think there's some revisionist history even in claiming that much, though. He's taken some swings in the last couple years. George Hill, Rubio, hell, even trying to re-sign Hayward, instead of flipping for safer assets. Going hard after Conley was another swing.

As far as risk is concerned, I'd say holding off to swing big in free agency is way bolder than trading for a Niko Mirotic. It's ok to claim DL didn't make the move you wanted, but to claim he's refusing to take a risk is just silly. He's taking the biggest swing of all those currently available.

I'm just gonna go on record now saying I'm pretty stoked about Tobias Harris getting shipped out of LA. I have a feeling he's going to want nothing to do with Philly in the off-season, and I really think Utah will have as strong a shot as anyone at his doorstep. Time will tell.

Our antiquated Morse code systems had this info available days ago. The answer to that hypothetical trade is a very firm '**** no'.

He just wants to be in the East. He's been the poster child for the underrated player trope for years. If he's not going to be with the team he's dedicated his career to, he would prefer to go somewhere he may be able to get a little recognition (All-Star selection, etc). You can't blame him. It...

I think it's pretty typical to have hesitations about moving to Utah, especially if you're a POC, if you aren't familiar with SLC. There's not exactly a reputation for cultural diversity. I honestly wouldn't be overly concerned about it, especially since we have no idea how forceful of a request...

I'm seeing second hand mentions of Windhorst reporting Conley informed Memphis he would prefer not to come to Utah... Looking to substantiate that, but if true it's kind of a bummer.

The Grizzlies are hesitant to give up one of their stars for one first round pick, they sure as hell aren't giving up both for one first and a couple seconds...

Not if we have Conley.

He also mentioned the Jazz have added a second round pick to their offer.

Conley really isn't a gamble... He's a fantastic player. Sure, you can ask if he is worth the asking price, but I wouldn't call him a gamble. In some ways he's the opposite; about as solid as they come, as a player and as a teammate (from everything I've heard).

What about something along these lines: http://tradenba.com/trades/ByesvxU4V I'm making the assumption that this is a precursor to New Orleans making a deal with LA, or another suitor for AD, meaning dumping Hill has some value to them. It's not a first for Mirotic, but they get a good player...

If we were involved in a trade that included Otto Porter moving, yet our return was Niko Mirotic, I would be extremely unhappy.

I think you would get killed on the defensive end. Like, you'd have to call up the red cross and report a crisis.
