bi? that would be doooooooope

BI and whatever picks are necessary. The odds of us drafting players that will produce like Murray and Markkanen (and making an immediate impact) are slim to none.

If we got Murray and Markkanen and things didn't work out for some reason, I wouldn't fault the front office at all.

He could be our 5. How is his D in that position?

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Popeyes needs to bring back the chicken wrap.

Would that get Markkanen to New Orleans?

I don’t know, but it would make me happy.

You would still want an enforcer like Kessler. Lauri can eventually play the 5, but he's better suited as a 4.

The question is how many picks do Utah want to acquire?

People still not 100% on OKC rebuild path on hoarding picks like crazy. Requires a lot of losing and long term planning.

Zion, Lauri, and Murray as your big 3 is nasty offensively. Upgrade across the board.

I'd imagine it would take a lot. I would also want Kessler in the deal because...I want Kessler. Suppose you could move Ingram to the 76ers for 3 picks. Then let's add another 3. Would the Jazz accept 6 firsts for Lauri and Kessler, or would they want even more? You'd think they'd at least consider it.

I think that's fair. I much rather just trade Ingram to Utah and make them do the work for picks.

Going 11 deep would be pretty crazy:


Lauri / Kessler - Missi
Zion / Lauri
Murphy - Ryan
Herb - CJ - Hawkins
Murray - Jose


Deep shooting for days.
