    LOL, the Hawks pairing Mitchell and Trae. They could have prime Garnett, prime Dream, and prime Pippen, and they would still struggle to be good defensively

    Mitchell on the Heat could be nasty though. Enough of a defensive infrastructre to absorb him.

    Mitchell with the Heat sounds scary actually. What would they even have to give up though for that to actually happen?

    Robinson and Herro or Oladipo?

    I don't follow the Heat closely, but isn't Robinson near useless right now? How is Herro on defense? I don't think Oladipo is good.
    I don't think Jazz will do this unless Mitchell forces his way out

    Riley would give up Herro for Mitchell in a heartbeat. Only problem is making the salaries work since Herro is still on his rookie contract. Attaching Duncan to the deal still leaves them a few million short.

    Mitchell would be an upgrade over any of those guys. Herro and Mitchell may be a wash in terms of value because Herro is still young and might still improve.

    Possible. If the Heat are in WIN NOW mode.
    I think Mitchell is definitely the best player in either deal

    Maybe Attach All three

    Its crazy that Mitchell is now a bad defensive player lol defense was his calling card back in the day.

    Even if Mitchell forces his way out doubt Jazz will settle for just Herro and Duncan lol wtf.

    you get a trade bonus on the player you are sending if the guy is white and trading with the jazz too.

    Ehhhhh he got to playoffs with none marquee superstar and has a respectable overall record. He has some coaching chops.

    Wouldn't say he's hot garbage but man isn't that good either since he just got his a$$ handed to him by a lukaless mavs

    you’d have to be absolute bottom of the barrel as a coach to not make the playoffs with the Jazz roster so I don’t view that as a high bar or anything impressive at all

    Jazz get wrecked in embarrassing fashion every year

    I have no doubt he’ll get swooped up quick, his reputation exceeds his actual results

    It's ridiculous that Mitchell is wondering about the franchise's future, but it isn't his fault. The media plays players like him like a fiddle and make them believe that they should be competing for championships. They put batteries in their backs that keep them from finding peace in their situations. With peace, he would either find comfort in whatever situation the Jazz put him in or confidently and assertively find a way out.

    Vernon Maxwell is somewhere smiling down on all of this.
