This it’s a legit debate.

Would the Jazz trade back 2 of the extra firsts that kept Jaden out of the Rudy trade, for Jaden?

Tim Connelly and Chris Finch are nominated for worst contract.

Not a Julius fan at all. Also his contract is significantly shorter and only 5 million more expensive

Seriously we need to trade Randle asap. Move him for Rozier in Miami. Hell move him for anyone with a pulse. Get whayever we can for him and move on. Connolly has been absolutely terrible for our franchise and we are totally fucked. Move Naz to starting rotation and give Garza backup minutes. This team is not it.

Naz also has to justify getting those minutes because it's not as if he's been able to repeat last season's success.

This team needed an immediate contributor via Free agency or thru the draft. Instead they moved up for a prospect whose best skill was still raw in an undersized body. While pg is his natural position his mind set is more closely aligned with our best players. Then we got even smaller and more offensive minded by trading chemistry and elite shooting.
Kat has been a disaster defensively but somehow an old defensive minded coach familiar with his best qualities has resurrected his full offensive repertoire and along the way discovered a level of mental toughness and leadership qualities never seen here.
I’ll admit I was completely wrong about this trade. And even worse I thought DD would turn out to be the real needle mover. Now there’s s rumors he might be shopped.
He’d be a good fit with the Nuggets.

We certainly miss Jaden's 39.8% from three on 3.4 attempts in the 22-23 seasons, hell we would take his rookie numbers 36.4% on 3.1 attempts. His shot lately almost looks like a push shots, he's trying to will it in.

Not sure about worst contract in NBA. But he's been grinding on my gears for a few seasons now. I'm a long time VORP guy. McDaniels has been negative VORP four out of his five season (including current).

I (like most) had high hopes. He has long been touted as a stout defender. So was Okogie. We extended McDaniels on the hope that he could develop his offensive game enough to compliment Edwards. He's still only 24. It might still happen. But through five years, there hasn't been much improvement from his rookie year. That's a big flag for me.

I do think he's better than he's played so far this year. Same with Double D. Which brings us back to Finch....I get that he wants the young guys to earn their minutes. But if you have a couple guys clearly in a funk like McDaniels and Double D, why not give some run to someone else? I can't imagine they could do much worse. And just maybe...someone like TSJ or Minott might surprise us.

Thank gawd the Vikings are doing great because this Timberwolves team is just pissing me off.
