The Jazz lost two late first round picks and a handful of scrubs for a guy who put up a 9.2 BPM under unique circumstances and it's the worst trade in Jazz history.
Yeah, way worse than trading Magic Johnson for cash.

Yes, a 9.2 BPM can be misconstrued lmfao. Mike Conley was next level in the Denver series. Yall are just being blind and looking to make someone the scapegoat. You are among the dumbest posters on the board and it consistently shows.Stats can always be misconstrued to fit a narrative.
Rayjon Tucker is likely better than Caruso.
yeah guarding one of the best offensively players on opponents team will probably result in worse ISO defense numbers than getting assigned one of the worst offensive players on opponent's team. What an amazing discoveryIs it ok to bring up that Crowder has slightly worse ISO defense numbers than Niang?
yeah, definitely would do the same so we could improve this team so much that we go from a horrendous season of 61% win/5th in the west/first round exit to the marvelous 61% win/6th in the west/first round exit. A franchise defining trade for sure.I love when people post this and act like we traded so many assets.
People like the idea of Crowder but when he plays for your team and shoots 29% from 3 in 45 games it wears off quickly.
Am I supposed to be mad or sad that we traded Allen and Korver? Or the first round pick who wouldn’t have seen much playing time?
I would still do that same exact trade today knowing what we know now.

you mean assets that included multiple young players who could improve over time and locked up with us on a cheap deal for years to come?I love when people post this and act like we traded so many assets.

IDK about that. Caruso has just played the same role his entire life. He's a no offense athlete who plays hard on D. Tucker has to make a big adjustment. Hard to compare IQ's.Tucker's BBIQ is half of Caruso's.
Before taking a gamble you always have to make a risk vs benefit analysis. and risk far outweighs the benefit in the Conley trade. Dude's never won anything in his career, is currently a borderline top 15 PG in this league and is on a very overpriced contract that would likely result in us having to pay the luxury tax if we wanna continue improving this team. Trading Crowder isn't a bad idea, but Conley just isn't worth it.I get that people loved Jae C for a number of reasons but trading him was the right thing to do. Everything is a gamble and it was a good gamble to take. His shooting and defense were not what we need.

Mike was really good in the playoffs. He wasn't the reason we lost. BPM is a weird *** way to measure it when you are looking at 5 games. I mean BPM for the full season Mike was sixth on our team. TB and Royce were higher. Hassan Whiteside was top 25 in the league for the season.Yes, a 9.2 BPM can be misconstrued lmfao. Mike Conley was next level in the Denver series.

I'm not even arguing with you over Crowder. He sucks. But Conley isn't the solution either. Dude's only played 47 games for us and 22 of which he shot below 40% including a 1-16 and a 0-7 performance and all you wanna argue is how Crowder's streaky shooting hurts the team.The fact that we are arguing over Crowder is laughable and stupid. You can't just hope his 20 good games a year just happen to lineup in the playoffs. The Heat got lucky but Jae has shown who he is and betting on him is a bad idea.
"really good in the playoffs" you mean that 5 game stretch, 1 of which he shot 2-13 that also happened to be our biggest game? i thought Conley homers cried "small sample" when we blasted him for his ****** performance yet the point they are trying to make is over a 5-game sample size.Mike was really good in the playoffs. He wasn't the reason we lost. BPM is a weird *** way to measure it when you are looking at 5 games. I mean BPM for the full season Mike was sixth on our team. TB and Royce were higher. Hassan Whiteside was top 25 in the league for the season.
Also, haven't you been trumpeting about small sample sizes when looking at Jae's shooting or our record without Mike? Mike shot the **** out of the ball for 5 games and was very good... his TS% for the season was lower than Jae's for the year... both had bad starts in new situations.
We aren't trading him so we will get to prove it out over another year. If I had a time machine I definitely wouldn't do the trade again... I doubt DL would too.
It's stupid? What has Caruso shown to make such a claim stupid? Yes, Rayjon Tucker, a rookie hasnt really had a chance to prove much yet. Tucker has shown that he is committed to making hustle plays and trying on defense.Saying Tucker is better than Caruso is stupid. Caruso isn't great, but he has been a functional NBA guy for a minute and Rajon never ever ever has been. I get he can jump higher and is stronger but does he help your team more? I'd be willing to say not even close.
I'm not saying he was as good as 9.2 BPM says, but you don't get that by being bad or a net negative in the series, like some are suggesting.Mike was really good in the playoffs.
