Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Handlogten's Heros]

I think they saved like $3M swapping Gallo for Murray though. You don't leverage your future draft capital unless you want to go all in, imo.

Maybe so... Gallo was on $5M guaranteed and would have been waived... so they added like 12M really. Maybe they throw in Hunter now (so they don't have to pay him) and bank on Griffin (probably not).

One thing to note... Hawks GM is like a GS disciple and maybe he has convinced Hawks ownership that you gotta spend like the Warriors to be the Warriors.

At the same time, if this is the going rate for someone like Murray who only has 2 years left on his deal, we should be able to demand a king's ransom for Donovan...

If the Jazz took Capela, Collins and extra from the Hawks, they may be able to re-route Capela to the T'wolves, while D'lo Russell gets moved.

What would we do at center?

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Jazz receive: Capela, Collins, Huerter, Griffin, 2023 1st
Hawks receive: Rudy, Bojan

This would leave Atlanta with a starting 5 of
Trae - Murray - Hunter - Bojan - Rudy
w/ Bogdanovic, Okongwu, and Johnson off the bench

I don't hate it for either team.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Capela is good at basketball and we will still need a center... why would we re-route him?

Because our goal should be to be bad at basketball right now.

Don - Huerter - Royce? - Collins - Capela

w/ Clarkson, Griffin, Conley??, House, Udoka, NAW, Butler as the bench

If you're going into full tank mode you should trade Don and Rudy.

 

[YoungJefe]

I think the Hawks make another trade now for sure. They have a log jam in the backcourt with Trae, Murray, Bogdanovic, Huerter.

Not really... if we want that then you do a pick heavy package like the Spurs just did. Jazz clearly aren't trying to tank right now.

also likely not bringing back Wright.

Anyone else really not want Collins? I’d be pretty pissed if he were a centerpiece in a Rudy deal… especially a Rudy/Bogey deal

Yeah Wright is gone for sure, imo.

To me the best assets you'd be acquiring would be AGJ and the 1st.

Good news is when we tear it all down next year the Spurs will have some extra picks to send us for Donovan. Quin and Don reunite.

They trade their lottery pick for Rudy to reunite him with Quin after missing on Victor

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Richardson, McDermott and Poeltl are likely quite available now. Guessing Jakob goes to Raps for a pick or something. Rich and Doug not that sexy.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Does Pop retire... Here comes Quin?

 

[YoungJefe]

Does Pop retire... Here comes Quin?

I read Quin can't coach elsewhere unless we give him permission. Send one of those picks our way...

 

[NUMBERICA]

Does Pop retire... Here comes Quin?

Only if the Jazz let him. Of course, they could send us some draft capital to smooth things over.
