This is quite a dumb idea. If the Jazz had all the pieces to make some serious noise next year, and still have assets to make that trade for Jalen Brown, then yes. But the Jazz are no where near that. The heck are the Ainge bozos doing?
If Ace falls to 5, we take him! He's a top 3 talent, believe it or not. Jazz tanked for this, for a top 3 talent.
Who knows, he might end up being like Tatum as a nba player.
I know, right? It's just like the nfl draft, which is 3 days. But on the bright side, this gives teams more time to prepare for day 2 and discuss more trades.
I'd trade 5 for 8 and 21 (Draft Maluach at 8) and also trade Kessler to Suns for the 10 (Draft Carter Bryant). I don't think Kessler is worth 20 mil a year or whatever when that time comes. Draft Fleming at 19, then Traore at 21.
I mean, I wouldn't Knuepple if Jazz traded down to 7 or 8, and added more 1st rd pick for this year or the next. It's just #5 seems somewhat high to draft him at.
I'd even do Knuepple at 6 for 5 and 18.
I think it'll be Keyonte or Cody. If it's Cody, I feel it'll be too early to give up on him. I still think he'll improve immensely another year or two. Seeing his brother play in the nba finals will motivate more or his brother will. But that's just me.
