Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[YoungJefe]

I think if I am Brooklyn I am trying to attach Ben to KD in any deal.

Just becomes difficult when you’re trying to move 2 guys on max deals in a single trade

Depending on Ben's market, it would likely diminish any return for KD due to pushing a toxic asset (contract plus demeanor). If I'm Brooklyn, I'm moving Ben prior to any deal with KD so I can maximize the return if I could get something for the dude.

Ben's trade market is hard to gauge but according to that dude teams wants picks to take on his contract.

Yeah the amount of teams that can or want to absorb that amount of incoming contracts might be 0, even for KD

Eric Bledsoe?

I joined this forum way back when Bledsoe for Millsap was a rumor. And we were so hyped about possibly getting him. Good ol’ PKM was posting what his UK sources were telling him. It was wild.

I guess we’ve come full circle. Now Bledsoe is just a washed up has-been on waivers. Never really hit that potential we all saw back then either.

I’m old.

I'm under the assumption that Brooklyn is hoping for a multi team deal where they send out Simmons which clears the way for them to add Bam or Donovan.

Honestly what I assumed. Dude could be all the way cooked. Literally no one knows and unknowns always go the way of worst case scenario.

There was that one year in Phoenix with Horny where they almost made the playoffs and Bledsoe was great… past that not so much

At least there he'll be criticized for his play on the court instead of his social life or another player failing.

You really aren't familiar with other markets are you? Bigger markets are brutal.

Imagine if we got Ben Simmons on the cheap then Donovan Mitchell convinced him to come out of hibernation and get back to his best days.

We could go from having the worst perimeter defense in the league to having one of the best perimeter defending teams in recent memory (Simmons, Beverley, and Vanderbilt).
