Would you trade for Draymond?

A fiery 4/5 that boards and shoots would make this team significantly more dangerous, especially in the playoffs. Maybe I'm more excited about who Portis is in theory than in practice, but I would be over-the-moon to have him.

The Jazz were going to sign Portis in free agency this past summer, they had a meeting scheduled with him, but they canceled it when Bogdanovic said he wanted to play with the Jazz.

Which would have me worried about Bojan getting punched in the face.
 
I don't think he clicks off anything we don't already have with Jeff Green, except maybe a big mouth. And that big mouth can work against you as much as for you with teammates and opponents as well. Personally, I think our roster is good as it stands.

And 26 year old Draymond might bring you a banner - not 30+ Draymond

Depending on what we sent out... if we had Draymond we'd be considered the favorite imo. He is a great passing big... with our shooters on the wing that could be incredibly tough to deal with on dribble handoffs and such.

Dude is an amazing defender... add his disruption to Rudy's constant presence and we'd have just a crazy amount of defense.

We don't have the assets so it isn't really worth discussing.
 
If we want to get another big the guy I'd look at is Kelly Olynyk. He can pass, shoot, and is a solid positional defender... could give us a stretch five element and play next to Rudy against some of the supersized teams. If you could convince a third team to take an expiring for Exum to pass to Miami then you might be able to swipe him.

NY won't trade Portis... his contract has a team option next year so it's essentially expiring. His defense is *** and I worry he's played on too many bad teams to be saved... seems like he might be a good stats on bad teams guy. If it was Exum for him then by all means.

The only guys I’d be looking to move are Exum, Bradley, and scrub fodder.

I’m glad how it played out.

They were going to sign Mirotic and a wing. Then Mirotic said he was done with the NBA. Then the Jazz went after Portis and Bogdanovic, got traction with both, and signed Bogdanovic. Looks like we dodged a bullet. Bogdanovic is obviously a better player than Mirotic.

I think the Jazz want to be players in FA in 2021, adding to a core of Mitchell, Bogey and Gobert (extended). I think that's why they extended Ingles another year. Conley would be coming off the books that offseason.

100% Exum is a bad contract and has negative value. They already have two lottery pg busts and Elfrid Payton... not sure Exum could play there... plus he ded.

If he was healthy and playing well enough to convince a team he still has potential, but not so great that DL has a 3-hour Viagra boner... then maybe we can squeak something minor out in a trade. DL and Zanik have done a great job filling out the roster so finding obvious upgrades isn't easy. I predict we have zero trades until draft night.

He's so good and such a great fit with the system. You can tell he's happy here and that Quin knows how to use him. He's been really solid on defense too. Honestly if we could just get Conley and Joe shooting well then the Rudy lobs open back up and its over.

Sounds like a solid plan to me.

Next game we need to get Rudy going. 20+.
