[Fischer] “Rival teams believe Utah is willing to engage in trade talks that would part ways with Jazz second-year center Walker Kessler.”

Thoughts? Surprising to me they could bail on Kessler this early, the guy is elite defensively, offensively pretty bad tho.

    In before a million complaints about the koloko pick

    From what I read from some Jazz fans, he basically did not take a leap with anything compared to his rookie season so he has been seen as disappointing.

    Rumours I’ve heard is he’s got a Lavar Ball type Dad trying to turn him into a stretch 5 and ignore what the Utah coaching staff is asking him to do.

    I like kessler game id like him on the team, if they want to go young hes a good replqcement for poeltl

    Would we be interested in Hendricks?

    Potentially Hendricks + Kessler for BB

    Settle down boys, we all forget Danny is running things with the Jazz now?

    I think this rumour is real. I’m high on Kessler too.

    The intel on him is a little concerning. It sounds like there is significant disagreement between him and his dad in terms of his skillset and what he needs to work on, versus what the team wants him to do. Apparently that’s what led to his bad sophmore year.

    I don’t think any of us can have a real opinion about if this is a good idea or not because we don’t know the back room stuff which is the most important factor here.

    wtf is the nba?! I just don’t get things like this. Isn’t he young? Doesn’t he still have room to improve?! What’s the Jazz’s rush to move him if they’re not in a position to win? I clearly have a lot of questions

  10. DirtyDanoTho

    He’s not that good. We need a shooting big man

  11. Trying to stop myself from churlishly hoping Kessler’s career tanks, so I don’t have to read 5,000 more references to how the Raptors could’ve taken him with the pick they downgraded in the Thad Young deal.
