Woj: Jazz agree to 3-team trade with Lakers and Timberwolves

[//r00t 4 Jazz]

Exactly. We can debate about how good RWB is on the court, or how much this off the court really matters.....but RWB is praised and respected by his peers. NBA players are not rando twitter posters.

It's more his contract of just over 41mil, he has not been worth that for at least 3 seasons, someone eating that much cap space alone is worth a FRP

 

[Coach Ellis]

Too much time has passed, I don't think this trade will as constructed will get done.

I’m fine with that. Would rather make no deal than a bad one. The only guy that is really impacted is JC because he can opt out. I’d like to maximize our value players now, but if we only get lowball offers I’d rather try again next offseason when they’re all expiring contracts.

Jazz going to have a ton of cap-space next year with Conley off the books.

Holy ****. It’s happening. And the Wolves are only getting back 2nd round picks. Awesome.

Kind of underwhelming, but I'm glad the Jazz did it.

Now let's go get Wemby.

Dont know why that's awesome. Utah is only getting 1 pick for 2nds and 3 quality players.


I'm overall glad we are more committed to sucking, but this wasnt a great deal. Trader Danny got got on this one.

Ideally the 2027 FRP is only top 3 protected

Totally agree. Need top 6 lotto odds this year to get good return on this trade.

 

[YoungJefe]

You guys really undervalue unprotected FRPs after the Don / Rudy deals.

So what is the final trade here?

It’s awesome that we kept any of our existing 1st round picks out of the deal.

It’s disappointing that we couldn’t finagle a pick swap this year. I’d have been fine with everything else, but that seems like a HUGE missed opportunity.
