2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

We could have around $13M in cap space if we traded Exum in the Conley deal... might be enough to sign Niko in the offseason. I hope that @infection is there in person for that momentous occasion.
 
That trade doesnt even work, at least not in the NBA trade machine.

Plus Memphis would have to send players back, or buy everyone out we sent them.

Guessing a 3rd team would have to come in that takes Favors and gives us something, or something like that.

There is a glitch with Udoh's contract on the trade machine... it works.
 
From the very beginning of this Conley nonsense, I said one thing: if we add Conley, we also have to add help at PF. If we did this hypothetical Rubio, spare parts and a 1st for Conley, I don't want to stop there. If we are going all in, we need to really go all in. The offense really isn't going to run that great if Favors is still sitting on the perimeter.

I mean it is almost to the point where you have driven me to hate Kuzma more than any other player in the NBA. And I like Kuzma. There is no circumstance, absolutely none, where Kuzma comes to the Jazz. Absolutely none. Not this year, not next year, probably not ever.
 
Everyone knows the jazz can beat bad teams. Getting conley let's the jazz continue to beat bad teams. But not beat the good teams

Eh, Conley is solid. Jazz would be a top-4 team in the west.

Conley/Mitchell/Ingles/Crowder/Gobert is a nice two-way team. The next step is then to upgrade either Crowder or Ingles (if not both).
 
I thought that it was still possible for us to add a max or near max contract after adding Conley? Pretty sure someone went through the cap math yesterday?

We would have to renounce Favs, Exum, almost all the bench save O'Neale probably. . .

Did I say Kuzma? Somebody earlier asked me if I would do Grayson and 2 1sts for Kuzma. I said I would. Then people pissed their pants. I don't think we can get him unless we take some contract like Solomon Hill as part of some 3 team deal. Even then, I think Kuzma is the best piece in the NOLA/LA deal not named AD.

I'm saying upgrade PF. That could be Otto, Mirotic, Randle, Kuzma, Bjelica, Saric or a few others.
 
We clearly like Exum... per Larsens... so does Memphis.

IDK... I might be willing to sub in Exum in the deal. He plays good for 10 games and excites me... then gets hurt or struggles for 15-20 games. I'm not sure he's even worth his contract. We might carve out flexibility if we put Exum in the trade to get something at the 4.
U know what trade Dante and derrick together. I think they'll both be happy with that

Say he tells Clips he wants out and wants to sign with us... we could do a sign and trade (they will re-appear) and send Crowder/Korver/Exum/Whatever space we had carved.

I don't see a plausible scenario.

Nonstop for freaking months!!! Dude, just stahpp. Kuzma is good, but not great, he is the one piece in all the Laker's flotsam and jetsam that the Pelicans would act to keep. Cheering for Davis to go to the Lakers because Kuzma somehow becomes available is a waste of everyone's time.

We could be talking bout the incoming Griffin deal. . .

Most of what everybody says is a waste of time. Stop crying you big crybaby.

I've been talking about Kuzma for about 8 days which is as long as AD's agent has had him on the trade block towards LA.
 
Yeah but if getting Conley gets us 0% at Tobias that isnt the answer neither is it?

I don't think that either is the definitive answer honestly. Not sure what, or who, the answer for the Jazz is. I just want Lou Williams as a stop gap. I'm the lone soul on the try and trade for Lou Will train. He's cheap and he can create and score.
