Jonas has an important role on this team. Very confused why he’s played as much as he has tonight though

Turner is an awful rebounder. People aren’t seeing the trade offs here.

Do you see how big Utah plays?

Not that confusing tbh.

It doesn't seem realistic.

Indiana is winning now.

Jonas is the only player with a positive +/- on the team right now. +7

Jonas is a very important part of this team’s core.

Talking about trading based on tonight is all overreaction - Trey can’t hit sand on a beach but it’s not like he needs to go. Just flush it and move on.

It's funny seeing how many people complain about about our lack of rebounding then want to trade Jonas for Turner.


Giving up the 2nd best rebounder in the game for a mediocre rebounder, wouldn't be pretty on the boards.


Turner averages under 7 boards a game.

His rebound % is 14.7%. Zion 12.4%.

Jval is 22.1%. Rebounding would be an absolute bloodbath.

In all honesty, I wonder if John Collins can be had. 4/100mil left. he's become a 4th-5th option for them offensively. solid defensively.

Graham + Hayes + Temple + 2 1sts might be enough

Off the bench, he'd easily be the 1st option offensively off the bench. Would be able to replace offensive production when JV or Zion sits (something nance cannot do).

You have to give up one of Nance or Val if you bring in Collins, else that is too much money to take on and too many picks to give up for a dude who will be splitting minutes with 2 other guys.

Salary too high to add him to our big 3.

Honestly, you'd have to give up one of our top 3 salaries for it to be feasible I'd think.

To add to this, Jval is the single best defensive rebounder in the NBA this season.

Hard to pin giving up ORebs on that guy.

It'd be committing to become a tax team...Turner would be a godsend, but idk how much he's wanting this offseason
