    What Would it Take to Get Caruso?

    I would rather have Fultz. I wonder why his name has rarely been mentioned.

    You are mistaken. Hardy stomped onto the court to call a timeout after Oubre had a clear path to drive to the basket while George was blown by and he even kept himself out of the way while blocking Kello O's way to help. And that sequence was after a couple of ugly turnovers by George. I was as...

    The trade winds are a'blowin'...

    Very well said. That's exactly my take on Collins. The cost of trading for him is low, but you make a trade to make your team better, and he doesn't. If we truly view Lauri and Kessler as two key big men going forward, we need a forward who excels in defense and offers some shooting and offense...

    Finally someone notices Collins' poor defence and is not fooled by his seemingly consistent offensive output. He and Kelly sharing the front court is pure disaster defensively. Hardy is losing my respect because of this. And for Lauri's shooting slump, part of it is his 'tradition', but I...

    I disagree about the Collins part. I think because of the horrid guard play, one thing goes unnoticed is how terrible our interior defense is. Kessler is better this match, but this season he is generally not that gd. Kelly O can't jump at all. This all we know. As much as he facilitates...

    Lavine?

    As a Lauri fan since he entered the league, I can tell you Lavine is toxic. What we need is a traditional guard, at least for now. I have been advocating Fultz. Tyus Jones or Brogdon also ok. For fancier name, then Giddy.

    Thread for misc Jazz News leading up to training camp

    Agree. People say Collins will make the Lauri jump. It won't happen. To me, the cost of getting Collins is low, but it is not a steal. Who would have given him a 75 mil/ 3 years contract as a free agent? Actually Collins should be played like Bobby Portis. A key reserve on the bench, high energy...

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    Fultz, but I won't be surprised if they trade both. Fultz is a free agent next year while Suggs' rookie contract ends in 2025. The least likely to go is Cole Anthony. But I must say the fact that they draft Black worries me because it means they are not really happy with their guard rotation and...

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    Why call on Suggs when Fultz is better all around? To me Fultz still has all-star potential. He just had the best season. Orlando won more games with him on the court.

    Official 2023 draft night thread!

    I propose trading for Markelle Fultz the other day. Sort of like Lauri reclamation project. Now that Orlando takes Black, I think we should make a move.

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    I hope we don't sign Kuzma. I don't like players who think they are stars and want star money but they are not quite there yet. That he plays the same position as your true star makes it worse. I also pay attention to a guy's character. Kuzma is high profile and does controversial stuff. The...

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    Agree, but I count on Fultz keeping improving, and honestly this time a year ago, few people from Cavs saw Lauri as part of their future either.

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    New here. I am curious why nobody mentions Markelle Fultz as a possible trade target. His contract expires in 2024. Magic has a logjam in backcourt. Fultz just had a career year but is far from a cornerstone. Two more rookies incoming. I would call Magic with THT+pick as a start.
