Are the Jazz going to trade Rudy?

Fake news? What did you say Donald?
Is it like that with the media now? Do I need to vet my sources before I respond to a forum on Jazzfanz?

Not fake news but it comes from a college football reporter and was then spun off as reputable... Locke was pretty clear on multiple mediums that the report was false and he is actually sourced... but sure let’s continue talking about Rudy being a selfish overpriced diva based on **** the color guy for the Clippers said.

My dog says he will sign a minimum deal... let’s discuss.

If gobert doesn’t sign his extension by Monday...do you trade or let it play out? Collins/capela is interesting

It’s interesting because I don’t think Atlanta does it... it’s likely not possible... the only place you have heard that is JazzFanz.

I think you play it out either way and that the return in trade would be bad.

I trade the **** out of him. Collins, Huerter, and a draft pick is the deal I'm swinging.

There’s no chance that is on the table. Would be sick though.

And I continue to think Trae and Rudy would be incredible together. It’d be a great trade for both teams tbh. But Atlanta has to be bidding against something even close to that enticing. And they aren’t.

Not this year, in upcoming years it could prevent the Jazz from landing a key free agent. For instance Bogey wouldn't have signed for 15m a year. Clarkson wouldn't have signed for 8 million a year. Ingles isn't going to last much longer, we'll need money. At some point you have to draw the line, with Favors on board at an awesome contract and Udoka waiting in the wings its 30% for me.

Which year? Who drops off that we would need to replace instead of re-sign?

Favors is great, but Gobert can't be replaced by him.

People don’t understand the cap... if we let Rudy walk we won’t have meaningful space until Bojan comes off the books. So we can wait for a few years and hope a great free agent comes here to pair with DM... or we could just pay for the AS center to stay here... it’s a pretty easy choice but the mystery box could be anything... it could even be something as good as Rudy?!???
 
The reason it hasn’t gotten done imo... Ryan just had his press release and became official... they still have time in the clock and are dealing with it in the proper order. Get through the preseason and see how everyone looks and get ink to paper before the first game.

If youve read into Ryan’s statements I think it’s pretty clear something gets done. He volunteered that he’d like Rudy on the team for a long time and the question wasn’t about Rudy.

I’m going to say I’m 80% sure we get it done... 35-38... 40M a year... it won’t matter the amount... bunch of posters on here will complain.

We literally would have 15M of cap space if Conley and Rudy both walked. Nowhere near the amount needed for a star player. People think because they both came off the books that we’d have infinite cap space.

At that point, however, if someone wanted to sign with us the Jazz could move a contract or two to make room.
 
This should be taken with a grain of salt. Grant is a reporter for the Pacers and I have no idea whether or not he knows what the hell he's talking about when it comes to Rudy and the Jazz.

Rudy Gobert Looking For Supermax Contract in His Extension | SLAM

Rudy Gobert is entering the final year of his contract, worth roughly $25.8 million in 2020-21. If the Utah Jazz want to avoid Gobert entering unrestricted

Porter Larsen is a college football radio talk show host. He was directly refuted by Tim McMahon and David Locke. Yeah...for some reason I don't think the Utah Utes radio show guy and a random low tier Pacers bloggers are more wired into the situation than anyone else.

The dumb *** articles are exactly why they do this. They get cited by every aggregator site on the web and it gets taken like gospel.

$40 million a year is more than any other NBA team could or would pay Rudy next summer.

And we are doing to give it to him for 5 years?

Worst decision ever.

And yet according to Grant Afseth (thanks LoPo), the Jazz are expected to give him the supermax.:confused:
 
He's decent, but does he give 110 every night like Don? Does he have the sweetest stroke in the game like Bogey? Does he sumo wrestle muscle bound alphas like Favors? Hell, he's not even funny like Niang and Ingles. It's been so long since he led the league in blocks or rebounds. Yeah, he had a good run with the DPOYs but those days are done. I mean he's tall, that's about the best I can say about him. But do we give him Lebron/Giannis money for that?

Paul George just signed a 5 year deal for $190M. I'm guessing Rudy gets about the same. Jazz will include incentives like All Defensive Team, DPOY, All NBA, etc.
