Bogut? Oh my.


We'd need another big man, once Zeller and Amir get dealt.

This thread needs Derrick Favors talk. Not sure what that deal looks like maybe Amir and a pick or KO but apparently Favors and Gobert are no good together.

I would love a deal centered around Bradley for Blake. But I am very reluctant to give up Crowder and his valuable contract even without having to give up a Brooklyn pick or Brown.

Maybe send Tucker to the Clippers and send the suns a 2018 celtics first.

I really only watch the Jazz when they play us, but he just never seems to be a factor against us. I don't think I'd even trade KO for him.

A little talk of a Brook Lopez trade here. Think it would bode well for next year's pick.

Getting Griffen without the Brooklyn picks or Jaylen Brown sounds way too good to be true.

Bogut and Melo to Boston. We keep core and BKs. Why not?

I am not that up on my Emoji game, but I think this means he's going to LA.

Favors is one of those guys who might be excellent or might break down due to injuries. Objectively, you can only play the odds and hope for the best outcome. Frankly, IDK for what would Utah agree to trade Favors, your proposal is as good as any I've seen.

TBH, I'm not at all surprised Favors hasn't turned into what Nets/Utah/rest of the NBA expected him to be. Despite his great athleticism, his size isn't overwhelming and his moves always seemed kinda weird, not star-like. But when he's healthy, he's a really good player to have on your team.

If they traded Favors, Utah let Al Jeff and Millsap go away to build around Favors and Kanter only to see both of them traded away to build around Gobert. All 3 guys that went away prospered after playing for the Jazz, and while it's hard to point the finger onto them (because there are objective reasons why it hasn't worked out), it's still kinda stupid.

Blake is my #1 target, or at least was before all these injuries. none seem career threatening but damn dude is injured like always.

but for bradley+kids+non-BKN picks, sure. not sure i want to give up jae too tho. given em olynyk, good fit next to DAJ.
