Trade deadline discussion

Their locker room is a mess based on what media folks are saying.

I’m cool with a guy that creates locker room issues by being competitive. Although Rudy and Marcus may end up in several locker room shouting matches.

Meh...Rudy and Smart are on the same wavelength. I thought the same thing when Jimmy Butler was in the trade rumors. Obviously you put a Rudy/Butler type with guys who don't work and it's a problem. But when that overwhelming competitiveness becomes your culture it's a good thing to have.
 
I like Bojan and believe his troubles stem more from adjusting to his wrist surgery but if this trade was on the table I would take it and run.

Another play for the Jazz would be to offer Bojan, Royce and picks in a deal for Siakam. Might have to go 3-way. The logic is that the Raptors are going into full rebuild and may not want to pay Siakam $30 mil to pout through it all.

Conley/Mitchell/Ingles/Siakam/Gobert is a nice lineup.

If raptors don't wanna pay Siakam 30mil, they definitely ain't gonna pay Bojan 20mil.
 
Toronto is growing frustrated with Siakam, he may be done after is outburst with nurse. That's the word on this street here in the 6ix
Raptors will want picks and expirings for Siakam. And the Jazz have neither. trading Siakam for Bojan just doesn't make much sense.

I'd closely watch Dallas, as they have THJ and James Johnson at their disposal. Having Siakam next to Luka and Porzingis will make them one of the favorites in the West
 
Much as I love Favors I think Bojan/Favors/picks would be the deal for Siakam that'd make more sense for our roster. Potentially a 3-team type deal if somebody thought Bojan/Favors could help them win.

Jazz can save the Raps two years and $73M off that deal, plus another $20M during the two years of Bogey. But if that's not good enough, a 3rd team might have to get involved.

no...... We will need to give up assets to offload Favors and Bojan at this point. Whatever you guys been saying about these two would make a whole lot more sense if they are on expiring contract. but whoever get them will have to pay them till summer 2023, which is enough to deter a lot of the teams.

Cavs could step in and offer Drummond's expiring deal. Jazz would take Siakam and give Toronto draft compensation. Cavs could flip the Jazz players, like they do every year and get a return for Drummond.

Total pipe dream
