I love Triple J i think he took a step back because of the bad player environment in Memphis with a real head coach in Steve Kerr and the role he would play with the Warriors they would get the maximum potential out of him and it would be a great passing of the torch from Draymond to him
I was strongly on the JJJ to LA train while Davis was still there. I thought the idea of two hybrid 4/5 guys who can both shoot outside and protect the rim would be an amazing front court next to LeBron and Reaves. Now? Definitely depends on what they'd have to give up.
You never even considered JJJ to the Celtics considering that they are actively looking to add a big man
It would have to be Simons and Hauser + two 1st’s (26 and 28) for JJJ
Simons is an expiring deal, so they could resign him for cheaper or let him walk if he wants too much. And Hauser is on a really good cheap deal.
The fit is amazing for Boston on the floor. But the only drawback is the contract spikes up to $50M after this year, which may or may not be problematic for their books considering they already have JT and JB at over $50M each
Atlanta here, I'm thinking Zacc, KP and a 26 second, 27 or 28 1st or both, Atlanta has 2 2026 1st round draft picks, we should be good for 2 years if that Nola pick is 1-4, Atlanta can swing big for Jackson and get a guy like Ngongba with our late 1st round pick, win win, if Atlanta contemplated AD they can afford triple J
The reason a lot of these work, surprisingly, is that his salary is only 35M this year and jumps to 49M next year. This makes him easier to trade for now than other max level salaries. At the same time, it makes the apron problems for the team that trades less for him worse once the higher salaries kick in.
The perfect landing spot for JJJ is the Pacers. He’s basically better Myles Turner and the Pacers have a ton of young guys they can offer back. Mathurin, Walker, and Isaiah Jackson meet the minimum salary match requirement and you can throw in a 27 and 29 first. Haliburton, Nembhard, Dybansta, Siakam, JJJ with McConnel, Nesmith, Toppin, and Huff coming off the bench is a terrifying playoff rotation.
No im a loyal grizzlies fan you think its easy watching 82 grizzlies game a season i do it because I believe in jaren jackson the grizzlies organization Is a travesty and deserves to be a wooden spoon organization 😊
Crazy idea, when you show trade tables how about making them big enough so we can read that’s one. Second talking over a loop of highlights is kinda lame
Jaren Jackson is a Piston, it’s inevitable. He fits everything they’re looking for from a trade target. He can score in bunches (e.g MPJ), he’s an elite shooter(e.g. Trey Murphy), & he’s a rim protecting big man that can fit alongside Duren and compliment his game (e.g. AD).
No Reeves, no JJJ. Those swaps are worthless. Those picks are worthless. The Lakers will be so bad with late prime Luka, JJJ, and Reeves. They'll be sooooooo bad…. I'm sure…
If Memphis was dumb enough to do that, fire the whole FO into the sun. Absolutely putrid.

Jaren jackson would be great as a 4th option. hes lowkey trash
Inflation hitting everything, three first rounders is crazy

Can barely see your trade screen.
Should make it more visible for viewers.

What do you think?
Ideal locations:
MPJ – Warriors
Morant – Heat
JJJ – Lakers
DeRozan, Monk, Ellis – Suns (for Green & Richards)
Chicago is looking for a player to pair up with Giddy. Kinda like what the Pacers did
Draymond and JJJ have the MSU connection too
Omg, can we just stop with the Lakers for once?
The last dude who traded with them was banished to the shadow realm ffs
God that Lakers trade is trash for Memphis. Jerry West isn't there anymore man.

Wizards, Raptors, Lakers, Warriors, Hawks, Pistons, and Hornets all good fits
Grizz decline this mane lol. Why would the Grizz want swaps for a playoff team.
JJJ for Quickley and 2 FRPs
Charlotte Hornets would be a good fit.
Lakers say no. He’s on drugs if he thinks the lakers will give all those assets up for JJJ.
He is on maybe the worst contract in the nba…

Would Memphis want Brony?
On behalf of LakerNation all over the world, we ain't getting him unless the return package will make sense for both parties.
Did Memphis hire Nico? Why would they trade JJ for scrap. Even with Reeves it's a no.
Lol 3 1sts 😂

not sure if the money works…CELTICS….SIMMONS AND SHIERMAN—————– jaren Jackson
A young prospect, one pick and one swap should be good for JJJ
Lakers & Warriors dont have the young prospect
If gsw can get him, they should get jjj.
How to scam the grizzlies ahh

The Lakers trade is good cuz you're salary dumping but taking Hawks trade is bad for salary dumping…what?!!!
just no, he is 49 mil and can't rebound. should have never won that defensive player of the year too
Spurs?
People who think Jaren catches lobs ^
If they trade JJJ and Ja and get a good amount of picks back (even if it’s just for JJJ) then they could be the OKC thunder in the 2030s…..
He would fit so well on the pistons 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

what about portland? next year playing Dame, Deni, JJJ, Clingan, Camara going size heavy. any thoughts?
25 teams can outbid the Lakers. Stop it with the delusional nonsense.
