Will The Jazz Make a Draft Day Trade?

Will the Jazz Make a Trade on Draft Day?

Don't think we have the necessary assets to meaningfully move up, so I expect us to either trade down for multiple 2nds or just buy a later 2nd to take a swing on an extra guy.
 
Could do Bogey to NY for #32 and the future Dallas pick they own. Maybe they throw Knox in and we spin him off to a third party... maybe to Minny for Juan Hernangomez or just into OKC's cap space.

Saves us a bunch... we are drafting in that range so should be very prepared. Get a future first to defer the guaranteed salary... Knicks can still get whoever they want at 19/21 or they can package and move up.

I'm praying that we can swindle the Knicks. Obviously Thibs had a great year last season, but he's still Thibs. He might be one of the few FO guys who still see's value in Favors and he would definitely see value in Bogey. Jazz got to make something work here or with NOP.

I salary cut mandate is difficult, but if it has to be done please get creative and don't just send Favors to OKC.

Its why I think I'd move Bogey first and then see if there is a deal later for Favs. Some team will miss on their guy... I just don't know that the Knicks are willing to use up some space on Favs right now... they might be later.

I like the new NY front office and how they have operated thus far... I just wonder if they buy too much into their success last season. If they miss on top tier FAs do they do impatient Knicksy things.

I’m ready for Locke to talk about how great a deal it was to trade Favs and 30 to Charlotte for 56/57… they got the guys they wanted anyway.

Gonna be interesting. Hopefully something good shakes loose rather than something ******.

Bro, the guy we select at 56 was the guy we were going to take at 30. He was top 5 on our big board and we pay him less, as we saw last year how important it is to pay a little less on your draft pick to duck the tax.
 
While we're at it:

- I can't see OKC keeping all six of their picks (you can only draft and stash so many INTL peeps)
- I think the Pels will package some of their 2nd's to move up
- Nobody's talking about it, but Brooklyn has four picks with no cap space and would probably love to shuffle some of those 2nd's into future picks

I keep thinking we can do something with OKC but they also seem to win every effing deal... there are already reports they might be able to move Kemba for additional draft stuff... he hasn't played a game yet and they are increasing his value.
 
More likely than not. Only reason they haven't pulled the trigger yet is to avoid the same mistake they made last year. They would probably stand pat till around pick #25ish or so and evaluate the situation.

Unless someone the Jazz really like fall to #30, they'd probably just trade out of the first round (either for salary dump or for more second round picks) then settle with their safety picks in late second like they've done in the past.

That just barely reminded me that we jettisoned #23 last year to them for #27 and #38 and they turned around and sold it for #25 and #33.

Thanks Dennis.

That was with NY though.
 
Trading Bojan, 30 for Knicks 19 and 21 looks good. But I want someone more useful than Knox in return. Like Quickley. Have him grow next to JC for a couple of years then we can maybe trade JC's expiring once Quickley is fully ready to take on that sixth man role.
 
Alright... here we go... a little three way trade action...

Indiana is said to want a win now guy. So NY wants to move up...

Jazz out: Bojan and #30
Jazz in: Justin Holiday #21 and #32

NY out: 19, 32
NY in: Lamb and #13

Indiana out: Lamb, Holiday, #13
Indiana in: Bojan #30

I think Indiana is most likely to say no of the three teams.

NY isn't going to trade us Quickley at close to that price.

Quickley is still developing as a player and can be extremely frustrating to watch at times. For someone as stubborn as Thib, wouldn't be surprised for him to go against Knicks fan base and trade him for a more polished player like Bogey. Would they give us both #19 and #21 is the concern here IMO.

It's probably more likely they offer neither than that they give us both.

Just curious where you think value lies in this scenario (not that the Jazz should consider it, there are surely better options) -- trying to gauge what it costs to deal with OKC these days:

Ingles and Bogey to OKC for Kenrich Williams and Gabriel Deck. Would save Jazz about $25 million. Combined with offloading Favors may allow for use of full MLE, if I'm not mistaken, along with re-signing Conley.

What kind of draft picks should be attached to the deal (flowing in what direction)?
 
I voted that we’ll move down/out. But I have a weird feeling that we have a trade-up target that we’re keeping under wraps… So all of this really means that we’re going to stand pat and pick at 30 lol

Now that would suck, that's Utah packing it in as any sort of contender for next season.
 
So I know nothing, but voted 'No Trade" simply because I'm still stuck on cheering for this years team.

The schedule meant injuries/stresses were the major consideration for the season. To last with your players still able to play meant it was smart to just trhrow some season games and angle for a down slot in the playoffs you could work. At least in the West.

I just wish we could have had our team for the playoffs.

Maybe next year????

nah. This is a competitive business. Nobodys gonna come back with the same people. Gotta keep up with the times and get some younger, uninjured players.

I think our best strategy would be to go for more picks or better picks.
