Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Rudy got back 4 future 1sts, two unproven rookies, 2 role players on expiring deals, and a young role player on a cheap deal that provides basically nothing offensively. There's a realistic scenario where not one of the 5 guys we acquired is ever a rotational player here, lol.

Malik Beasley is one year removed from averaging 20 PPG on pretty good efficiency.
 
When evaluating a players value you have to take a long term approach, correct?

Hoopshype has Don at #11 and Rudy at #28 in terms of trade value. Age/contract play a large role in what a guys value is, because Ainge fleeced a team that hasn't won a playoff series in 2 decades doesn't dictate Don's value. And at the end of the day those picks could all be late 1st rounders and we end up with basically nothing but end of roster guys for Rudy.
Who gives a flying **** about what Hoopshype says?

We just saw a real NBA team trade 3 unprotected first round picks, another first round pick, a pick swap, and multiple players for Gobert. We KNOW what Gobert’s value is in the league, so why do you keep spouting this **** about Hoopshype? Dumb as can be.
 
Just throwin this out there.

The more draft picks we obtain the greater the chances are they we land Lebron’s son… who knows, maybe one of the Minny picks turns into Lebron’s kid? Lebron always said he wanted to play with his son…

Just sayin
 
There really isn't.
Beasley/Beverly aren't long term assets for us, Bolmaro is purely a flier, Kessler was a late 1st round pick, and Vanderbilt was an end of bench guy for his first two years before becoming a role player in Minnesota.

Most top 15, All-NBA players net back at least one young promising starter, we didn't get one.

I don’t care if his kid sucks, I’d take him first round to get Bron.

Typically when teams trade superstar level players they get back at least one good young player like SGA in the PG deal or Ingram in the AD deal. We got back Jarred Vanderbilt...
 
Funny thing is Deron Williams never got CLOSE to the amount of hate Donovan did here. I think even after we traded Williams he didn't get the amount of hate Mitchell gets.

****, not even Carlos did.
Utah locals don't like a young African American man that speaks his mind.

I dislike it when people move the goalposts on a discussion.

Who in that trade do you view as a for sure rotational piece here going forward? Beverly/Beasley have expiring deals, Kessler/Bolmaro are total unknowns, Vanderbilt is the only one and he's nothing special.

To say that none of them will be rotational players for us is to predict that the Jazz will trade all three of Beverley/Beasley/Vanderbilt before the season starts, because all three would obviously be part of the rotation if they are on the roster on opening night.

In the short term Beasley/Beverly could be but to suggest we got some crazy return for Rudy is kinda funny when other teams got similar draft capital and top tier young prospects in similar trades and the best player we received is Vanderbilt.
