Brown to the *New Orleans Jazz* 

Post#1 » by babyjax13 » Wed Jun 25, 2025 9:10 pm

BOS trades: Jalen Brown, Derrick White
in: 7, DeJounte Murray, Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, Jordan Hawkins, 2027 NOP/MIL 1st (higher)
Boston gets a nice wing tandem to go with Tatum but tanks for Dybantsa with both Tatum and Murray out. Murray becomes a worse version of White for them.

UTA trades: rights to the name "Jazz"
in: cash, 23
The Jazz don't trade 5 to become a worse version of the Celtics.

NOJ trades: 7, 23, 2027 NOP/MIL 1st (higher), DeJounte Murray, Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, Jordan Hawkins, cash
in: Jalen Brown, Derrick White, the Jazz name returned
New Orleans tries to build a serious team. Poole/White/Brown/Zion/Missi.

I'm sold.

What would Utah's new name be?

You must know I will accept literally any trade that includes Nola getting the Jazz moniker back. So thank you for not taking advantage!

Love that too! And the twist.

This needs to be done.

I like geographical goofiness of the Grizzlies, Jazz, etc. that’s a deal breaker for me. Send 23 to the Celtics and keep the names and I’ll consider it.
Murray has an Achilles tear as well right?

I will be depressed if the Jazz trade their name away. So unless I am personally getting some of that cash coming back as the Jazz GM I have to decline.

Kelly O went to the Wiz in the Jordan Poole deal. Hope that doesn't screw you up.

Thank you! I think it can work with Hawkins!

Probably have to get the Raptors on the phone and get that name for Utah. Seems more fitting. No idea what the Raptors should be named but do they even have dinosaur bones/museums in Toronto?

Can we also include “shared history” back to the Sonics?

Incredible trade proposal because of thinking outside the box. And even though I started off reading it thinking that it was a joke, the more I thought about it, the more I felt like it made sense.
Kids played football, drove cars, went to school, celebrated life; while soldiers, heroes, their brothers struggled to find their way home from war; and young boys watched and grew wiser in their dreams.

I hate that it is decent.

I meant get rid of the shared part. Thunder start from the move date, no history prior to that.

No, the Thunder got shared history in the deal. Seattle kept only the name. But records , stats, etc from Sonics days count for the Thunder. So, this year counts as the franchise’s 2nd title.
