Where Does Hood End Up?

Where Does Hood End Up?

  • Total voters
    54
  • Poll closed .
OKC has T-Ferg... I'd do that... not sure they would but they don't have anything else to offer really.

Detroit has Johnson... I'd rather have a pick though.

Not really intrigued by Tony's list... mentioned Orlando and Denver too.

Wonder if Chicago would move Portis... maybe they want out of that entire issue.

I'd be interested in a future first from OKC... perhaps in the ashes of their current big 3.
 
Stanley Johnson and Detroit's 2020 pick for Hood still sounds good to me.

I'm not big on an OKC 1st unless it's unprotected and in something like 2023.

Orlando could be interesting. I like Jonathon Simmons and Herzonja.

Jazz should have 0 interest in Portis. Not a system fit. New age 4/5 tweener who doesnt play D.

they can't trade a pick until like 2024...

Bulls won't send a pick (just my guess). Detroit can't send a pick for a couple years. Maybe they'd send one.

I think Hood sticks around.

Maybe Bulls would take Hood and AB... send back Holiday. Pretty meh

The Jazz should not trade Hood unless it brings back a player that is part of the long-term plans. As it stands, Hood fits well with the team, and his contract this summer will probably be cheap making him a great asset a few years down the line when the market has corrected (similar to how Crowder is an asset due to his contract).

He's going to get paid way too much for what he provides on the court. I wouldn't want to even give him Ingles type money tbh. Ingles is a better shooter, passer and defender. And he's more position versatile. Rodney is a 6th man and his best role would probably be as a 3 point specialist ala Korver. I wouldn't want to pay a lot for that.

The crazy thing is, Chicago could trade us Tony Allen ($1.4 expiring) and Jameer Nelson ($1.4 expiring) for Hood and Burks. They have that much cap space. Now, what else would we realistically get from Chicago in that deal? Their 2019 protected 1st? A future protected 1st? Their 2nd this year?
 
It's laughable that Chicago wants Hood and here we may even let him walk.
 
It just sucks cause the 3 main interested teams in Hood arent really in a position to deal their picks.

Detroit and OKC both wont be able their 2019 pick.

Bulls have two first round picks, but why would they deal one of them to us when they could have just take Hood and expiring filler for Mirotic instead of taking on Asik? If they dealt to us, it would be a future 1st and I'm not interested in ANY of their players (beyond the untouchable Lauri).

I do like Detroit 3 wing players, Kennard/Bullock/Johnson, to varying levels.

OKC has Abrines, who I dont really like, but he can at least replace Hood's shooting.

So to me, with limited information, the best trades from those 3 teams would be centered around Reggie Bullock or Alex Abrines, and you hope you can talk them into future first instead of 2nd rounders.
 
Bulls are so bad I gotta think they're reluctant to part with a first in any deal. Plus, not sure DL would be enticed to part with Hood for a 1st-round pick that will probably be lotto protected for at least 2-3 years. Could be wrong, though.

I really doubt the Jazz would let him walk, but it has to be scary that a team like Chicago is showing interest enough to be mentioned in a top 3. They are one of the teams with cap-space to offer him a contract above 12 million.
 
With interest being tepid (as it kind of seems) I'd just keep him. His FA market will look a lot like the trade market does. I always thought 4/60 was kind of his floor, but it may very well be 4/40ish. We can use him off the bench and still play him starter like minutes.

If you got him on a 4/40-50ish deal he's a great trade asset... didn't see it as possible, but the FA market seems to be more barren than I thought initially and he has not lit the world on fire.

If the Jazz can get a decent return I'd like Hood to go to OKC I'm rooting for them to make a splash in the playoffs.

And that's the last place the Jazz should want to trade him. If PG ****s OKC and leaves, you dont want them having the option of that insurance policy.
 
Honestly, would you trade Hood and Burks for Jabari Parker right now? I would.... Think about it for second:

- The Bucks offered Jabari $18 million per year for just 3 years and he said no and chose to take his busted knee into RFA.
- What happens if the Bucks don't budge on that? Parker wants more or if he wants more than 3 years?
- If we offered Parker $25 per year for 4 years the first day of free agency, would the Bucks match considering having to re-sign Middleton, Brogdon, Bledsoe and others soon? Many reports say they might not match.

So, if we were to trade Hood and Burks to Chicago for expirings and their 2nd rounder (projected top 35-38), it could mean that we are able to enter the Parker sweepstakes. Shedding Burks could lead us to Parker contention.

Do I think Parker is our missing piece? No. Do I think he's worth the gamble over bringing back Hood and paying Burks next year? Absolutely.

I don't know how many times I can say this, but what's our game plan here? We valued Hood > Mirotic, we will likely retain Hood through the deadline, but then not match if he gets a higher offer from a team like Chicago. I don't get it.

It might be really nice to have that down the line when money starts becoming an issue. I'm all for any future firsts, personally. As long as they don't default to second rounders I would be in.
