Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I could still see a Gobert deal happen with the Hawks, possibly with Capela ending up in Minnesota. See what AJ Griffin looks like in Summer League and see if that makes a difference to where things stand.

T'wolves also picked up Walker Kessler, Wendell Moore and Kendall Brown in the draft, who could be interesting young prospects to include in a deal.

Not happening. Atlanta was going to get involved in the Ayton race but Trae went and said, he wants Capela to stay at all cost. Trae plays really well off Clint.

You think that you guys would pony up Collins + 3 1sts for Murray?

Hell no! Many of our fans want to but they aren't thinking long term. Murray will get a max in two years. If that backcourt is too small, it's too expensive to remake it whereas they can remake the current one in another year. It would just have too much cost and not enough reward.

Oof. Trae wants Capela? So then where is the improvement going to come from?

Trae. He has to be the one being better off the ball, more willing passer with the ball and better on defense.

Everyone has to improve. Hunter, Kevin, Capela, Okongwu. Bogi and JJ are hurt so they won't get a summer to improve. JC needs to get it together, he will always be shopped, part of being a stretch 4 in a NBA where teams wants 4s who defend multiple positions at a high level. Something, he cannot do.

Murray's skinny but he's tall with length and solid defensively, I just don't know how well it would work because both guys are super ball dominant players.

Why is your front office so adamant on moving Collins?

There's been a lot of talk surrounding the Hawks that they want to shake up their roster, that a bunch of guys are available for trade, and that their defense needs to take a big step forward. Otherwise, they're another 1st-round out. Also, Trae isn't going to improve defensively. That's not a strategy.

This will probably be unpopular, but I’d trade Mitchell or Young from the hawks straight up for Murray.

They made a lot of calls but in 2022, everyone has an ideal as well as what's acceptable for what they want and if it doesn't fall into that paradigm, they stick to their cards.

The owner gave a mandate to improve but he wants long term success like the Warriors. That's smart trades, cap moves, but he has to be willing to pay. He says he is....

When you are the worst defensive player I've ever seen, I clearly think you can improve. He has the hands, instincts, and lateral quickness to be a decent defender but his stamina on defense is horrible, he instantly dies on screens and he breaks the integrity of a defense at the rate of prime LeBron to other teams in the playoffs. His effort has to be possession by possession which is critical.

He can definitely improve.

Extremely unpopular. I wouldn't do that. Trae's offensive value is 2nd to Jokic and he single handedly lead our offense to wins over elite defenses like NY and Philadelphia as well as competitive v. Milwaukee.

To me, PG is the one position that can be overly offensive based.
