Jazz Offseason Plan

It seems wherever we end up this offseason (but esp. if Joe is moved), we're going to look very different offensively than before.

Conley remains the primary ball-mover, and hopefully we'll remain good enough at ball/player movement, but we'll likely be seeing a lot more playmaking off one-on-one moves. Perhaps good for the playoffs, less good for the regular season?

Wonder what adjustments Quin will be making
 
Seriously lol, I’d love to get rid of this dude

Just gtfoh already.
 
Yeah, I was mostly joking.

People will hate to hear it, but I think he is undoubtedly better than Frank N or Miye.
If "breaking the paint" remains a high Jazz priority, then surely a healthy Exum is (unless injuries have robbed him of his speed). Too bad he's perpetually unhealthy.

I'm wondering if when Rudy and Rudy are both on the floor, it opens up Gobert more because the D can't just swarm him.
 
Sign Frankie, trade a second for Paschall, find a backup C that played with DM in college.

We must engage in the "Suck up to Mitchell so he doesn't leave" master plan.

The dude celebrated Conley re-signing just yesterday.

I’m with you that it’s more likely Mitchell leaves than stays for another contract, but this is some conspiracy theory level ****.
 



Bey is actually one of the few rookies who did show out during last year's G league. Averaging 15pts and 9reb on 49% shooting and 33% from deep (1 made per 3 attempts) through 13 games. Legit 3D prospect who could end up having a career similar to that of PJ Tucker who was also cut from his team after rookie season.

I'd take him over some wasted project like Winslow.

Also had the highest vert in the combine that year IIRC. Or highest max vert reach? Something very good.

Would be a great project IMO.
 
Mavs fans aren’t very high on him, but what do they know really...
He’s a project. One that if he can makes himself playable has major upside, IMO.

I’d like our projects to have upside. This strategy of taking three years to develop a Niang is not the best.
 
Also, the next big thing in defense is a guy that can switch across most (all?) positions guarding 5-out AND have the ability to protect the rim by racing from the perimeter. These players are incredibly rare.

If you can get him to have a passable jump shot and floor vision, that’s a very useful and valuable player, especially in the chess match of the playoffs. Hell, even if he doesn’t figure those things out, it probably would’ve been enough for the Jazz to advance in the playoffs last year.

I wonder if Juwan Morgan could have eventually pulled that off. Ahh well

Watching his G league reel makes me believe that he is really not that far behind in terms of development. Definitely more NBA ready than Oni. Someone look up Brantley/Oni/Hughes/Morgan’s G league numbers for me. I bet it's not as impressive as Bey’s number from last season.
