Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Is Hart, at the price he's going to fall at a better player than next year's Abaji? I'd stand pat at SG, SF, and Center unless you are bringing in a solid backup.

I’m a huge Josh Hart fan….I can’t see why now is the moment to trade for him. He’s so important to the Blazers, would have been smart to get him when he was being undervalued but that window has passed.

Not sure if you’ve paid attention to the reporting… he seems to widely be available… I think they are looking beyond this year and know they aren’t going to have the budget to keep him.

I don’t know but here is the thing with SG and SF types… you can play three at a time. I’m not going to make big decisions banking on Ochai yet… he’s shown a little bit but it’s super limited. He’s not a good defender yet… he’s not bad but he needs to learn all the tricks… having someone like Hart wouldn’t be bad thing.

Tim also said everything they do is focused 2 or 3 years down the road, but they would love to make a move that would help them now and in the future, which explains the interest in guys like Collins and Finney Smith. He said the Jazz interest in Finney Smith is real but nobody in Utah or Dallas actually thinks a deal will get done. He doesn't think Finney Smith will be traded by the deadline.

Also said he's hearing that the Jazz are asking for way too much in trade discussions....and Danny Ainge tends to get way too much.

And I don’t care about winning now all that much but just don’t send picks out in deals that only have guys under contract for a year or two. If you want to send Malik or Vando for those types of deals fine.

I haven't, so I could definitely be wrong here. The money situation does make sense as a reason to trade him.
 
Kinda surprised that nobody has been talking about this proposition reported by Shams:

Report: Jazz Have 'Strong Interest' in Mavs' Dorian Finney-Smith

The rumor mill is heating up regarding the Utah Jazz.
www.si.com www.si.com

They've already made it clear that DFS will not come cheap. Beasley straight up, absolutely! Sexton, who's been mentioned in Dallas fanzine news, Hell to the No! Nothing involving anything but maybe a highly protected evaporating first. Beasley and Azubuike for DFS makes a lot of sense for both parties IMO.

PS Also, encouraged that we are apparently not blowing it up and going youth movement as this signals to me that we plan to be in the hunt next season.

I would have thought he was less available than reports suggest too. If someone we like is available then good for us!

I just struggle to see good player only acquisitions. I don't like the Collins fit with Kessler. I don't like the price or contract length on OG. If we could sell off and get some picks that would be my first choice. Use those picks later. I think this summer you could look at acquiring some win-now young vets after you see how the draft played out.

Dayam!!! I went back three full pages. So spill, what's the consensus?

The consensus is meh.

It won't happen in a straight one for one deal... it likely does not happen at all. DFS is besties with Luka and his game fits... if they move him its for a star... or because they are dumb.

Can't deny the logic behind that. Thanks!

Prolly higher on him remembering in the playoffs last year, than most.
 
Can someone explain to me why are we talking about trading Beasley? Don’t we want players who can shoot? Is he too old? Too short? I haven’t been following news much but I’m games he seems like one of the better shooters.
 
Send Beasley to Memphis for Green and Kennedy plus the worse of their 2024 picks (GS or Memphis) or for Green and Laravia. They have too many developing players they are trying to keep in the rotation. They can trade one.
