2021 NBA Draft Preview (new thread)

[LoPo]

Everytime there is a Joe trade mention Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" starts playing in my head.

I hear "Ain't No Other Man" but I get your drift

If we trade out of this draft altogether, I've got a nice used Xfinity remote that's tasting the pavement hard.

My prediction is the Jazz use Joe and 30 to move up in the draft.

Sounds like that's what they're trying to do -- Pacers at #13, Wizards at #15. They're hunting someone in that range. It could be Garuba, Jalen Johnson, Duarte or ?? Not sure about Trey Murphy.

Seems like everyone wanting to trade up to #13 is to draft Duarte who has a ceiling at #14. I don't love it if he's the guy the Jazz are targeting.

Also wondering what the IND offer was with Joe. Salary had to come back to UTA...was it Warren, Lamb?

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

You may be right, but I will say again, this would be an eternal curse on the Jazz and they would deserve it.

(again, unless Joe is involved in all of this)

Would be hilarious if we got good value after some folks crushed us for the extension.

If the Jazz need to move Favors' deal just to shed salary, I think they can do that at the trade deadline to a team trying to make the playoffs. Same as the Celtics moving Theis mid-season.

The most hilarious thing is if we somehow turned Favors into an asset.

Which teams in the last 4 years have regretted trading Westbrook... how many regretted trading for Westbrook? Just saying.

I will drive to Utah and give JZ a free handy if he pulls that off.

I actually think the Knicks should have gone after him. Playing next to LeBron just isn't a great situation for him and this is especially true because no one on that team can shoot.

Beal and RW had a good season considering how awful that roster is.

Houston was a dumpster fire waiting to happen before he got there. Harden is a diva.

How long will it take for OKC to be relevant again?

Every one of those teams would do the deals to send him out again... they all got draft compensation for him. His contract is monsterous... If I was Washington I'd do it without draft compensation just to get it out of there. Lakers will have like no contracts to manuever around... they have given up tons of draft comp already too... this is a great day for the Jazz.
