Trade to 5 for Jarace?

Sounds like we have some solid ranges for prospects now (not accounting for trades where someone purposefully trades in front of a range)

Walker: 5 or 7
Hendricks: 7-12
JHS: 13-16
Wallace:10-16
Amen: 4?
Ausar: 5-9
Whitmore: 5-9
Black: 7-10
Scoot:2-3
Miller: 2-3
Bufkin: 8-13
Dick: 10-17
Bilal: 9-16
Lively:10-15

So my deduction from this is we draft Bilal, Whitmore, Black, Bufkin, Ausar or Hendricks if we stay at 9.

Detroit would prefer Sexton to Ochai. They don't want more players they have to develop. Sexton is a ready made scorer, something they struggle to do (28th ranked offense).

The thing they struggle with is basketball ya dunce... they are also 28th in defense. Ochai is cheap and wouldn't step on the toes of the guy they drafted top 5 last year. They gonna roll out Ivey and Sexton? Cade is a ball in hand guy... Ivey will want it too.
 
We know DA is a master of collusion and the dirtiest snake that ever snaked (I mean this in a good way). All this we want Jarace stuff is really just to push Cam down to us. He knew if Detroit went with Walker that there would be a small free fall and he could get his guy... but Cam does all sorts of fun pretty stuff in workouts... looks like a god with his shirt off... so he tells Cam "tank that ****... trust me... I'm the star wing maker" and Cam fell under his Sith Lord spell. Its over... DA wins... book it.
 
Sorry HH, it sounds like Ochai isn’t going anywhere. This is from Tony Jones this morning:

Lauri Markkanen, Walker Kessler and Ochai Agbaji are Utah’s mainstays, which puts the Jazz into an advantageous position. Markkanen can start next season at either small forward or power forward. Agbaji can play either wing position. Kessler is a center, but the Jazz are unlikely to draft one at either pick No. 9 or pick No. 16. That means the Jazz can draft almost anyone at nine, without worrying about the fit.

Do you remember that game they played on Sesame Street... which one of these is not like the other...and they'd have a banana, an apple, and then like a baseball bat... that's what this reminds me of. I don't want him traded btw... I'd likely just stand pat at 9 as it looks like things will break in a way that we can just hang out and get one of our guys. With 16 we might benefit from moving up, but the Ringer has Wallace there and ESPNDX has us with Bilal... I might just chill at 16 too.

Lol… on a real note how is Ochai a mainstay and Sexton isn’t?
 
good teams need leadership and they need players that rally everyone around them to give max effort to win in this league. Unless you have 2-3 superstars that is the grit you need to contend. Something Utah is unlikely to ever have. If I’m GM would hesitate to ever trade sexton. JMO. He bring that extra intensity to the team when he is on the floor on the bench or at practice
 
I don't think we've even worked Walker out, correct? Not that we wouldn't still trade up for him, but I'm just curious how much we are actually interested.

My worry with Walker is completely unfounded, but just bits and pieces of conversations that have stuck out to me, not based on any actual observations, so take them for what is worth.

When I re-watched the McDonalds all American game they were talking about some concerns about his work ethic. Then I remember watching a scouting video that talked about him taking plays off. It's not something I've personally noticed, but since I don't watch every game it just made me a little worried.
 
lol if we trade up its for one of Cam Miller or Amen is there at 5 because Walker is Detoits guy apparently and he will have to be taken top 4 for them to move off that pick probably

I'm in favor of moving up for #5 to get "our guy" and if that's Jarace, great. Big fan of his.

no chance Detoit is leaving him on the board without a massive overpay in draft assets which is nothing inline with the Danny Ainge special. No, we might move up to 6 and 11 from 9 and 16 giving up a future Wolves pick so we can draft the last of chalk 6 if he was in our top 4 lol
