2022 NBA OFF SEASON DRAFT FREE AGENCY TAMPERING ETC

the question is are the jazz breaking it all the way down and selling off mitchell too or are they gonna build around him now

not rudy pulling in 47 million in 4 years :(((

donovan’s two best friends on the jazz have already been bounced.

Brian Windhorst just ran the First Take desk in circles. They were hanging on his every word for 2+ minutes 😂😂. Absolute masterclass. pic.twitter.com/Q1vn6mD9iz

just seems like any time you’re sending Danny that kinda package you have to know you’re getting fleeced, have you heard of what the guy does

seems like they coulda done this for like 1-2 picks lolll

google how the current boston celtics got their players

The Jazz gathered six first-round picks in the past 24 hours, including 7-footer Walker Kessler, the 22nd overall pick in the 2022 Draft. The Jazz plan to retool the roster around All-Star G Donovan Mitchell.

The Timberwolves did give up significant draft assets, but were elated to hold onto their talented young 21-year old forward, Jaden McDaniels.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 1, 2022

tell them were elated adrian use that exact word

twolves could be good but i doubt they'll get past the wcf with that team

A lot hinging on ant being an an all nba player very quickly

twolves could be good but i doubt they'll get past the wcf with that team

Xpost, the woj thing is total pr, but right or wrong, the Wolves have a very strong belief that McDaniels is a star in the making

League sources: For now, there are no plans by the Utah Jazz to trade star guard Donovan Mitchell. The Jazz are committed to building around him. The Jazz are not done in trade talks. Expect more activity

so not a total teardown then

idk doesnt make sense

could flip all those picks for a player no?

i'm sure they dont actually plan for him to be their #1 guy on a contending team but they can't say that while he's listening

could flip all those picks for a player no?

i guess but their roster as a whole seems like its playing itself out

jazz interested in ayton apparently

it’s either delusional wishful thinking or more likely posturing intended to increase/maintain mitchell’s trade value

yeah has everyone forgotten how danny ainge messaging works already

was my thought too seems kind of pointless but who knows

I know

i do think that danny will simply not trade him until he gets the deal he wants theres no fire sale

it will be interesting to see how all this plays out, i don’t think ainge has ever been in the position before of having a star trying to force his way out as the clock runs down on his contract. he was on the other side of the table during the star hunting saga in boston

God, the NBA offseason is just the best.

kind of interesting to note that the durant trade request has not frozen league business as was predicted.

most teams prob decided they didnt have or didnt want to part with the assets to get him

just matching his salary is hard

well i think it’s notable that the suns haven’t made a single move yet aside from extending booker and the only moves the heat have made are resigning oladipo with his bird rights and giving deadmon a tiny contract

i agree, that is notable

tho smart white and brogdon are all kind of same guyish

not really. hes much better at offense than either of those guys and sees himself as a lead scoring guard. and he once took the pacers to the 4th seed as their best player... thats not something smart would ever do. if hes healthy for the playoffs its a total steal

the fit is weird though. brogdog loves to hold the ball and he thinks hes a much better creator than he actually is when he should really stick to scoring. and he's not going to help at all with stopping those faster more mobile guards. will be interesting to see how it plays out

kind of same guyish

c-c-c-combo guards

combo guys

to the other point yeah i suspect if the celtics had brogdon they would have won the nba championship, which is not to say they will win it with him, cause who knows how good the teams will be

Free agent Donte DiVincenzo has agreed to a two-year, $9.3 million deal with the Golden State Warriors, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Player option in Year 2.

i’ve never seen evidence that divencenzo is actually good but that’s interesting

its not nothing. seems like a good get to me
