And to draft Cooper Flagg, no less. Dude is painfully overrated and will be a meh NBA player. I pity the GM who wins the draft lottery and basically has to take Flagg at #1, or else.
Flagg just smoked US Olympic team on their scrimmages. Almost carried the Select team to a W, and got great reviews from pretty much everyone who was there.

Id say his floor is far above meh.
 
Sarah Todd today, with Checketts, for what it's worth:

The Jazz don't WANT to give up Lauri. If they can go into this season and still lose a bunch of games and keep their top-10 protected pick and have a shot at Cooper Flagg, while also keeping Lauri Markkanen, that is what they want. That is the golden plan. If they were given a golden offer for Markkanen, then that could change the plan a little bit. So far, hasn't happened.

First of all I would say that I know that Will loves Walker -- that he's incredibly invested in his potential and future and really wants him to succeed. I don't think that there's any problems between the two of them.
 
Anyone know of any good voodo gods I can pray to and worship? Hoping the cavs and wolves are riddled with injury this coming year.
I get that you're getting at, but praying for injuries is pretty icky.

Just pray for Donovan to get beef with his other star players that slowly kills the soul of the team
 
Ugh reed sheppard looking like the next steph.

Cool hes here in the H and ill gladly go see him but would have been great to see him on the jamz
 
I think he only does if he signs that day. I think if they wait so they can't be traded it will be slightly less
Will Lauri be more valuable on the absolute max at the trade deadline or on draft day on lower than the absolute max we can give him on August 6th?
 
I'm also guessing the Spurs won't include the 2025 ATL pick under any circumstance unless it's at the deadline and it's fairly obvious they aren't that bad.
What would they have to offer if not that? We are doing the same thing we did last year with the Knicks - if they are not offering the best assets they can offer, then there are tons of teams that will outbid them... or the Jazz will simply keep Lauri and trade him later when they actually can get something of high value. We are at a point with our assets right now where the more and more assets we add the more diminishing returns we have from them, especially if they are not that great as single assets. Very soon we won't be able to roster all the draft picks we have over the next 5 years...

They have a ton of assets to offer. They can put together a great package without the 25 ATL pick
