Utah is open to trading Collins this offseason, sources say, but his market is apparently still forming and might not take shape until after this week’s draft proceedings. Thursday is the deadline for Collins to activate his $26.6 million player option for next season or bypass it to become a free agent

Gotta check Twitter once in a while, man.

You think I know how to use the tweeter?

 

[idiot]

You think I know how to use the tweeter?

Well, then just assume that every time you don't know what's going on, there's probably an answer out there on that mysterious technology.

To answer your original question, there was some stuff out there on Twitter that the Celts are listening to offers on Jaylen Brown. Tony Jones playfully ignited a small firestorm on Jazz twitter by asking if the Jazz should try to trade #5 for Brown. I think Kevin O'Connor mentioned something about the Jazz should pursue Brown. So a raging topic over the past several hours on Jazz Twitter over the past several hours has been about whether the Jazz should go after Brown. It's all likely a bunch of nothing.

Jazz would probably love to get the #14 pick from San Antonio or the #10 pick from Houston while facilitating a KD trade. Packaging #10 with Lauri might enable the Jazz to get #3 from Philly without giving up #5.

And now I know why Ryan always wears that stupid backward hat.

Fully expect we don't do anything big tonight. Guessing we execute our picks and the real roster fireworks happen in July - September.

You’re probably right. Wouldn’t be surprised at all to see the Jazz try to lock down some 2026 picks in the process.

I dont know. I have the feeling Austin Ainge wants to start his tenure with a bang of some kind.

That is usually how it is with new management. They want to put their stamp on things. Walker trade incoming along with drafting Maluach.

If we take Maluach at 5 I will die

Collins and Sexton to Phoenix for Beal (Hopefully not going to play in Utah) and #10? That is an expensive top 10 pick. Maybe #10 and one of the picks the Jazz sent them earlier this year? I am Jonesing for something

not happening

 

[bigmike]

Just listened to Locke's podcast from yesterday and I'm fully back on the Ace Bailey train (not that I ever really got off). There's just too much talent there to buy into the ********.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Yeah, and it's always some unnecessary BS move that is meant to signal "There's a new sheriff in town!!"

I think we can expect something along those lines from Ainge Part 2 as well.

If the jazz trade Kessler with intent on drafting Maluach then obviously we trade down but for god sakes don’t let that happen.

Beal has 2 years left for 110 million. Feels like lighting money on fire but the #10 pick would be nice.

That is why I said it is an expensive top 10 pick. A lot of people were willing to pay for PG over the next 3 years to buy the Jazz the #3 pick. This is cheaper. I am just looking for anything at this point. I am a little surprised we don't have more trade rumors.

It would be like Azubuike but 10x worse.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

It would be like Azubuike but 10x worse.

Yes, because Azubuike was a consensus top 8 pick.

 

[Udidthizz]

Yes, because Azubuike was a consensus top 8 pick.

I was talking about the effect it would have on me. Wasting a 28th pick or whatever it was on Dok was frustrating, but it's only a low pick. Wasting the 5th pick on a player I have no interest in whatsoever would feel much worse.
