What's new

Jazz Free Agency Summer of 2018

It is not my money, but if it is just one year in the tax and if it is a quality move, then DAMNIT you go into the TAX! It is not illegal to go into the tax, it just costs more. If the the cost is worth it (beat the Rockets, etc., quality player/shooter), then you do it.

It's more than just money... There is a repeater tax that hinders your movement... and it's not like we are talking about a few million. You pay a tax but also miss out on a distribution which could be 7-10M+

So you don't barely go into the tax if you can help it... wait until you absolutely need too.
 
Rubio / Exum / Neto
Mitchell / O’Neale / Allen / Burks
Ingles / Crowder / Thabo
Favors / Jerebko
Gobert / Udoh / Bradley

I suppose that is 15. SOB. When I did this mentally I forgot Burks. Damn he and Bradley taking up valuable roster spots. Can we trade both of them for Carroll?

When you layout the minutes and consider that Favs is our primary backup center, Thabo and Crowder are likely playing 4 more than 3, and Royce can play 2-4... Jonas is pretty replaceable. Can waive him... pocket the saving and give Niang the contract... use him as a break in case of emergency option.

If Bradley was ready for spot duty you just let Udoh go... and maybe that is how they roll.
 
I think we will keep Udoh and Jerebko and bring Gorgeous George in on a two-way, and let him participate with Rudy and Raul in a three-way.

I hope DL is watching SL and saying to himself 'Bradley needs another year in G-League, and we need to go get Bjelica'.

Actually I think maybe we should be hoping for the opposite. It might take releasing Jerebko and Udoh to be able to afford Bjelica and stay out of the tax. If DL thinks that Bradley is ready now, he would be more willing to release Udoh.
 


Not sure how reliable this guy is. I believe the Bjelica part, but not buying the Parker stuff.

Bradley looked better in the first SL game that he did last year, but he still needs a lot better hands and learn to finish in the paint. At least 4 times he had easy looking scores that he either dropped the ball, didn't catch it, or took so long gathering that it was an easy defense for the Spurs.
