Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I don't know the cap situation or how Bucks would go around the tax or their pick situations but;

Conley for Lopez, Hill and 1st works

Bucks then use their taxpayer MLE on Claxton fill the void at center. Claxton gives them better chance to play more at the level. They also weren't terrible when Lopez was injured.

Jazz do it because Lopez can shoot and defend and they get a pick.

Jazz can then trade Gobert for non-centers.
What are the odds we acquire Hill and he gets another big toe injury?
 
Dealing Rudy to Minny does nothing for me. Russell doesn't help this roster.

With what's out there, the Bulls deal is the best of a poor haul IMO. I wouldn't be shocked at all if the FO decides to let Hardy and scheme tuning run back the pairing of Rudy/DM for another year vs. trading him for unappealing packages.

Oh it would be Russell and a **** ton of picks... if its for Rudy. Russell is the salary ballast.
 
Ayy, Nowell was my homer pick that year lol
He's good and I'm not sure he will play enough there to show it. Not sure how we get him unless he's a throw in for a bigger deal.

And I'm not a huge fan of what those picks would be. Minny is going to cement themselves as a playoff team for the next several years - picks in the 20's doesn't do a lot for me.
 
This means the tax goes up like $2M and makes it more likely we can duck the tax with some small moves... so this is somewhat relevant.

Probably... but we assumed the Brooklyn, Lakers, Clips picks would be garbage and they already turned into 8, 12. and 17... and the big ones are yet to come.

I would tend to agree and doubt they would do 3 unprotected firsts... if they did it sounds like about as good as we can get unfortunately.
