What's new

Jazz Free Agency Summer of 2018

No, for that abysmal attempt at a hair style by itself.

Bruh... he cut it.

I had a theory he should cut it last month of the season and then hope he shot well... be like you try shooting with that **** on yo head.
 


Lebron trolling Gilbert... Hey pick up Perk's option and I think we can make a trade that will make me stay... having to give money to Perk's dead body when he leaves will be another slap in the face.

Did he? Thank god. It was hideous. My 4 year old saw it one night and started laughing.

He did this offseason, but imagine if he did it in april and got hot for two weeks... max contract! I should have been an agent.
 
How can you say we are overreacting and not to panic and then list these as our options?

We’re trying to compete for a championship. This is not good enough.

But adding Favors to that list all of the sudden makes us a contender? That was the point I was trying to make. Those guys aren't perfect, but they will do the same job as with Favors.
 
No way they do that... I'd pick him up in one damn second.


New Orleans Pelicans
i

Offseason focus

  • The free-agent options for DeMarcus Cousins (short-term deal or sign-and-trade?)

  • Current roster + Cousins = Luxury-tax team

  • The free-agent priority of Rajon Rondo: Tax midlevel if Cousins returns
Exceptions

  • Non-tax midlevel: $8.6M

  • Bi-annual: $3.4M

  • Trade: $3.8M, $2.3M, $2.1M and $1.5M

  • *Cousins salary will impact what exception the Pelicans will have.
Cap-space breakdown

  • Bringing Cousins back on a max contract would leave New Orleans with a projected $132 million in salary -- $9 million over the tax threshold with a tax penalty of $14.5 million. That number will increase to $23.7 million if Rondo signs for the midlevel and the Pelicans could only offer second-round pick Tony Carr a two-year contract.

  • Letting Cousins go would keep the Pelicans under the tax but only with the $8.6 million midlevel and $3.4 million bi-annual exceptions to use.

  • The Pelicans do have four players -- Darius Miller, Emeka Okafor, Cheick Diallo and DeAndre Liggins -- with partial or non-guaranteed contracts. The $2.2 million Miller cap hit will have $300K protected if he is not waived by June 28 and it becomes fully guaranteed on July 24.

I mean I see it is printed but they’d be dumb to do that... give up a good shooting cheap wing... they need more Darius Millers.
 
The thing people are missing is that Favors on a long term 10 or 11 million dollar contract is a tradeable asset. Probably could have netted us Jabari Parker at the deadline. If you can't use cap on a superstar, use it on players worth their contract. You will never go wrong signing players to value contracts.

I didn’t miss it... I posted about it... the one caveat... if he’s healthy. I think all that stuff is behind him so I think I’d be cool with it. There will be some bargains.
 
Super Mario Hezonja is the answer for the Utah Jazz. Book it

Mario is the answer... to this question... which former #5 pick was the 6th wing for the Utah Jazz in their 2018-19 championship season... hint he also served as Joe ingles (the mvp that year) bag carrier that year?
 
I don't see any point in signing Doug McDermott. He's a good shooter but he can't rebound and he's awful defensively. I don't see him being anything more than a 11th or 12th man on our bench that would never get in the game. I would much rather sign someone like Bjelica or Herzonja.
