Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I would rather not just make a trade for trades sake.

30M+ in cap space... getting a swap that moves us up 8-10 spots is not "doing a trade for trades sake". That is first round value... last year Detroit was able to use their space to acquire picks and move into the late lotto to get Jalen Duren.

Is it amazing value? Probably not... but it absolutely has a purpose.
 
I believe JJ more than 99% of NBA sources.

Meh, it's fun but I take these things with a grain of salt. The "reporting" NBA media is it's own world. It's clear that there's an information game between agents, teams, and the reporters. When someone is outside of the world like JJ or the Jazz radio guys, there's no way to know how "solid" their source is. Everyone wants to have the biggest secret....but I don't take the radio/podcast gossip guys who aren't reporters too seriously...not that I always take the reporters seriously either.
 
You still have to send other players around to make it work - I’d rather get back a couple of young guys in this deal than have the Lakers just cut two guys to make the rosters work.

Lakers send Max Christie & Troy Brown and the Jazz kick in Leandro Bolmaro and cash to waive him and it gets you there.
You could put Max in the deal but it works as I laid it out already.

JJ isnt really in the breaking news business. If he said it, I think it's likely coming from a genuine place. He's well liked and well connected. Doesnt really need the clout.

An NBA player with actual connections vs a Jazz radio guy. Hmm… tough call on who to trust more.
 
I'm going to say it's Vando for Jaden Springer and the Charlotte 2023 2nd rounder
They are an inch away from being out of the tax. They will send out more salary than they take in... Vando for Thybulle and the second rounder.

Does JJ know big mike or Monty doe?

Now that I would consider in a heartbeat. CHA sucks ,the pick in the high 30's is golden for our next gleague all star or stash prospect,also allowing us to easily justify moving the Nets PHI pick for a 2024 first. That and Springer imo anyway just needs a change of scenery and is a solid defender/playmaker.
 
He talks to the players themselves. He does have those connections
Well Monty talks with Mike and Mike talks with me and I talk with Monty... that's a lot of sources.
