What a rebuild lmao
First the Jazz absolutely fleece the Wolves, to record levels..
Now they've fleeced Cleveland too
It's amazing how stupid some NBA execs are lol
Guess they're only human...but my god :facepalm
Props to the Jazz
I'm glad the Knicks did not give in. That's an insane amount of picks for a borderline Top 10 player.
Danny Ainge gonna Danny Ainge. Doing same thing he did when he took over Boston. Just watch, Jazz will be in the finals in 4 years.
Shocked af
My first reaction: I don't like the fit next to Garland. What about the backcourt defense?
Cleveland really banking on right now
When are those picks? Cleveland isn't going to be bad for a little while at least, so they won't necessarily be great picks. Still easily has the potential to turn out to be a total steal for the Jazz.
If healthy Colin can produce almost like a Donovan so getting all that on top of him is pretty nice. I guess the “If healthy” is the issue.

This.
The trade for Mitchell is fine in and of itself, but the fit with Garland is sus. Who can make plays for others in that lineup? They still have Rubio I guess but unless they move Garland to the bench or another team Ricky’s not gonna matter much. Unless they wanna run the three of them together, but thats just too little size and defense on the wing.
Curious if theres some followup to this. If not, it feels weird.

Doesn’t provide the same spacing or impact.
Ainge fleeced the fvxk out of Cleveland

Dude ain't even top 20. Most overrated player in the league
He shot 37/38/40 from 3 the last 3 healthy years so I wouldn’t say his shooting is too great an issue. He’s not Mitchell. It he’s as good as you’re gonna get with a package of picks like that thrown in.
Utah has 15 first rounders the next 7 years.
It’s either a 10 year plan or a 3 year one ending in swapping like 6 for another star. The Celtics never did it but they became contenders without it so I wouldn’t be too worried as a Jazz fan.
[QUOTE=fsvr54;14656134]Dude ain't even top 20. Most overrated player in the league[/QUOTE]
He is overrated, but he’s a nice upgrade over Garland.
Only problem is they still have Garland. :facepalm

Garland would be LeBron’s 2nd option on the lakers. Crazy
Kind of strange since Garland is like 90% of Mitchell.
Can't hurt I guess.
[QUOTE=AirBonner;14656139]Garland would be LeBron’s 2nd option on the lakers. Crazy[/QUOTE]
Yup.
Bron would have the league thinking Garland’s a superstar, a la Kyrie.
Garland is better than Sexton. Why didn’t Utah get him instead?
Jazz fans have nothing to cheer for. Shame. Lol

Was your team in the finals last year? You trashing on another organization is hilarious. I mean I’d try to distract myself too if “the process” was reduced to a washed up Harden
Cleveland should have kept Sexton then they could have gone from a three big line-up that didn’t okay defense to a three little guard line up that didn’t play defense
Which reminds me, did Mitchell ever get a game of double digit rebounds or assists?
There’s been guys who can’t play a lick get 10+ rebound and 10+ assists in the same game. How do you go that many games without either?

he's certainly comparable to Mitchell. If Sexton was playing next to Gobert he might be the all star not Mitchell. Mitchell is what the 4th best player on the Cavs now?
How can people think the Cavs lost the trade? All picks are going to be late first picks as long as the Cavs don't get injured. Mitchell is 25, Jarret Allen is 24, Garland is 21 and Mobley is 21. They will just become better. The Jazz got a tiny shooting guard who does not play defense, a soft shooter who does not play defense, and a 22-year catch-and-shoot rookie with defense potential.

Garland wasn't on the table. The Jazz wanted the unprotected picks. The rest is gravy

he's been close to a triple double but that's not what you're getting from him. You're getting an inefficient gunner who doesn't play D and doesn't pass much. Have fun Cavs fans!

Yeah you’re banking on picks hitting. Good luck with that. The odds of hitting on better talent than Rudy and Mitchell will be tough.

Sexton is comparable to Mitchell as I said months ago to the chagrin of the trolls, he's just not on a max contract

Ainge hits as much or more than anyone. Certainly more than anybody the Jazz have ever had in the front office. But yeah guys like Gobert don't grow on trees. Not likely they get anyone as good out of the Minnesota picks. But it's hard not to see them winning big on this trade. I wouldn't be surprised if they got multiple players as good or better than Mitchell. He's highly overrated
Jazz might get two or three Gobert’s out of this trade

You’re about as likely to be fair on the subject of Mitchell as 3ball on Pippen.
That’s a lot for Mitchell. I don’t think Mitchell is all that great. Overrated.
[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;14656155]Sexton is comparable to Mitchell as I said months ago to the chagrin of the trolls, he's just not on a max contract[/QUOTE]
And yet they had to throw in 3 first rounders, 2 pick swaps, and two players. Seems someone is rather high on him.
mitchell is way better than sexton. I like the move for cleveland. 3 unprotected picks is a lot but not at lvl of what gobert fetched.
[QUOTE=AirBonner;14656158]Jazz might get two or three Gobert’s out of this trade[/QUOTE]
3rd best player in Jazz history. Not likely

glad they are. Hard to see this not being considered a huge heist when all is said and done

Sexton is more efficient and has put up 24 a game. 2 years younger and making 18 million a year instead of the max!
