Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I don't think Miami comes even close to what NY could do. Plus we all know NY can't tie their own shoes so...
They tied ours together draft night 2021.
 
6'1" volume scorers on average % with no defense are not harder to find than a once in a generation defensive anchor.
Player A: 25.5 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 6.3 apg on 43/38/92 splits
Player B: 26.0 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 5.3 apg on 45/36/85 splits

Player A is Steph Curry and player B is Donovan. Remember that Steph couldn't even get the Warriors into the postseason without Klay Thompson last year. There are also more factors that come into play when evaluating a players value including age, contract length, salary, fit with our players, etc. As we've seen with Rudy you have to have a very specific system of players around him and even then he gets exposed defensively in the playoffs. Don is 5 years younger, significantly cheaper, and is well liked around the league so if you're in a big market you can sell other guys on coming to play with him.

Rudy's contract could easily be the worst in the NBA in 2/3 seasons if he has even a slight decline because he's so limited offensively.

HoopsHype has done as the 11th most valuable trade asset in the league, Rudy was 28th.

Yeah, we've seen this argument before. Curry offers intangibles beyond what DM is capable. Hoopshype is ****ing garbage. Look at the Raptor's rating.

And, like 98% of your posts, your reply had nothing to day with the actual post. The topic is "who is harder to find?", not what hoops hype thinks.
 
Don't think Nets have any more draft picks to give for Donovan
They gonna get a pile of Phoenix picks in the KD trade… we take those and some of the NY stuff… Ainge jumps in the middle of a foursome and comes out with all teh picks.
