The Euro teams don't play as many games so quality of life might play into it.

There are several big free agents this offseason and many teams are trying to create room to sign one of these. Some may find themselves in awkward situations, such as having to get rid of $0.8m/year contract of a 21 old. My priority would be taking advantage of any such desperate team. Utah has to get either creative or bold though as their draft picks are gone and books full. But opportunities like these don't come too often and they are particularly hard to miss if you manage a small market team.

Very good point. There are a ton of quality young guys with potential getting cut. And we need depth. And we traded away our 2018, 2019 and another 1st.

There are quite a few guys that were 1st round picks, got waived and found themselves in the GLeague or China. The team that drafted thought they were players at one point.

I'm saying this again, Utah needs to sign Furkan Korkmaz. It's a gamble but a very cheap one and he might end up being their next Gordon Hayward.
I am a bit homer because he's from my city, Istanbul but I know this dude very well and it's a match made in heavens. He's a UFA, so a minimum deal should do the job. Give the kid to Johnnie Bryant and watch him blossom over the years.

He is a shooter so would fit our needs. Minimum should get it but there is some smoke with Efes.

to be fair tho, people say "LoPo you're an idiot" a lot
He played 4 minutes in this lineup .K. Korver, .R. Rubio, .R. Gobert, .J. Ingles, .R. O'Neale. off rating 75 def rating 31
He played 1 min in this lineup .K. Korver, .E. Udoh, .J. Crowder, .D. Exum, .J. Ingles off rating 122 def rating 50
He played 8 min in this lineup .R. Rubio, .A. Burks, .R. Gobert, .J. Ingles, .G. Niang off rating 138 def rating 131
He played 1 min in this lineup .K. Korver, .D. Favors, .J. Ingles, .R. O'Neale, .D. Mitchell off rating 100 def rating 200
He played 22 min in this lineup .R. Rubio, .R. Gobert, .J. Ingles, .R. O'Neale, .D. Mitchell off rating 139 def rating 78. This was across 14 games though.
He played 11 min in this lineup K. Korver, .D. Favors, .R. Neto, .J. Ingles, .R. O'Neale off rating 80 def rating 88
Some of those he might not have been playing PF Royce could have been. But either way none of those are enough to draw any conclusions from. They are wayyyy too small of sample size. I think its pretty bad to try and make claims about anything with Ingles at the 4 based on stats.
I cant find reliable data on how much he played PF. Basketball reference claims he played 66% of his time at PF. But I know that is not true, as does anyone who watched the Jazz this year.

Why wouldn't they? Silver hasn't done anything to stop it, except for fining Magic Johnson some pocket change when he egregiously broke the rules mid season. Silver mistakenly equates Woj Bombs as a success, so despite the rules stating otherwise Twitter knows the draft picks before Silver announces them.
Stern ran the league in his day. Now Silver lets the big money run the league for him and buys the "governors" silence.
Not if they don’t have capspace or their still shopping for a max player.
Jazz should strike quickly.

Lineup data isn’t great in how they assign positions... if joe is out there with Royce or Niang they are likely guarding the 4 or the bigger wing. Joe doesn’t have the heft to guard 4s.
K, but that’s not happening with Favors on the roster.

Trade hasn't gone through yet.
Strong indication Rubio is headed to Indiana, but they'll have to get rid of Thad or Bojan (along with their other FAs) to make it happen (they have ~3mil in non-guaranteed contracts they can drop
as well).
The idea is to add Rubio to the Memphis trade, and potentially find a fourth team to take some of the surplus salary from Indiana.
Indiana keeps Thad and Bojan (and Wes, Tyreke, Corey Joseph and Kyle O'Quinn if they feel like it), and their full MLE.
Jazz keep their full MLE, their BAE--and can potentially use Favors and Exum in an S&T for Tobias Harris (or someone else?)
Deal stays the same for Memphis.
Makes some sense if you can find a team that can absorb a few mil or wants Doug McDermott...
