Was I wrong about Lauri Markkanen?!?
I’ve talked about the Utah Jazz signing of Lauri Markkanen and why I wanted to trade him; many of you commented about it. In this video I talk about the Lauri Markkanen signing and if trading him was a bad idea.

Just let him sit out a lot of games .❤
No all star considerations this year for Markkanen
It no fun talking about tanking all year and being upset over every win, no it makes no sense
I'm ok if we hang on to Sexton but we might need to take a bad deal to be able to trade the 2 JCs. Not a terrible deal. But a … less than ideal trade in order to free up those roster spots.
Lol… fun video, gonna be a fun season… flip flopper😂😂
You could’ve traded Lauri, tanked, and missed out on Cooper Flagg anyways. That’s why it was a good idea to keep him.
It really is a super star league. So until you get your guy and become one of those teams that has their guy and can actually compete for a title, you’re just spinning your wheels. I would like to see them legitimately competing for a title again, it’s been a long time.
Bottom line, no one offered enough to move Markkanen. It is what it is.
I like Jordan Clarkson, but he has not been very good recently. I say play him, which should really help tanking, or, he starts burning up the nets and then maybe we can move him for something valuable if his stock goes up.
Also, even if the Jazz have the worst record in the league, there's no guarantee that we can get Cooper. The lottery always seems to screw the Jazz, and they drop a few places. I wish we could hedge our bets with multiple lottery picks. One would have to hit.
I made it on your video! lol While I disagree with trading Lauri, I do agree that the Jazz should tank for Flag. And I can deal with the rumors, doesn't bother me. Hopefully they play the young guys as much as they can to get them experience and tank at the same time. We'll see how smart the Jazz actually are this season.
truthfully i don’t think we get cooper even with lauri sitting a lot. i hope im wrong tho
65 out of the past 68 NBA champions have featured a player who was either a former MVP OR won MVP during that season. That goes all the way back to when the first MVP award was ever given out. This past year was an exception to something that had almost become a rule in the League
Is Zion Williams an alien and how long his buzz lasted untill new future MVP came along? 14% chance to get a hyped player and then what.
Just tank already. Limit Laurie and plays too well. I could give a crap about the complainers. We NEED a SUPERSTAR to play with Laurie. A top 3 pick next year might get us one. Once we have a top 5 player and a top 25 (Laurie) it will be much easier to get a top 50 here as a free agent. Developer our young guys the next couple years. Home court playoff team in 3-4 years from now is the goal. I remember how long it took during Stockton to Malone era to play back to back finals. Damn Jordan……
"I am going to root for the Jazz to lose every single game." — That comment made me burst out in laughter . . . 🤣
