It's not really feasible to trade for him right now, but there are two seemingly realistic options. 1) The Clippers are struggling next year and if it's obvious Tobias Harris won't re-sign, they'll likely want to go into take mode and will trade Harris for young future assets. It probably...

Given Kevin Love's contract, I don't think Cleveland could really get much back for him. Nor do I think the Jazz should bring him and his deal on. If they did, that would basically max out cap space and be the final piece that would be added. I'd rather have Tobias Harris or maybe even Mirotic.

If the Clippers are struggling halfway through next season (and I think they will be), Harris could be had for relatively cheap.

I think it's going to be Khyri Thomas or Divincenzo. Whichever one is still on the board.

If for whatever reason Favors isn't coming back, I like the idea of being compensated to take a flier on Faried for 1 year. There's a hang up here though. I believe just taking on Faried's expiring contract isn't compensating Denver enough for the 14th pick. They would likely want something...

Nice to find a thread about this. I've been compiling my own list. The list of somewhat realistic candidates of outside free agents I've come up with are, - Avery Bradley (Struggled this past season, but in '16-'17 he averaged 16 ppg, shot 39% from the 3, and was considered a lock down...

Why do you have to lay into him like that? I enjoyed the ideas and conversation he brought. That's kind of the point of a message board.

You realize we want nothing to do with Rose? We don't want him anywhere near our team.

I agree with that. If you can't see that then you no clue at all how the NBA even works.

I'm going to guess Crowder becomes that stretch 4 we wanted.

Of course I get the salary implications. Cleveland had to dump IT and the whole league knew it. Cleveland just is happy they got a piece back that can help them win this year.

I disagree. They had to get rid of IT, they weren't going anywhere with him this year. In return they got Clarkson who can provide a helpful scoring load, and Nance who is a valuable piece and can really help Cleveland inside.

Lakers cleared $13M in cap space. Wow, Cavs may have just facilitated the trade that will entice Lebron to go to LA now that they'll have cap space to sign two max contracts.

Is Gordon worth limiting all other flexibility for the next 3 years though? If you have Biyombo at $17M/year and Gordon on a max then that's it. You're done making moves. That's your team your rolling with and you'll be limited on bench players you can sign for small deals.

Tony Jones recently said on Twitter there's no chance the Jazz would bring in Gordon even Fournier attached (who's a lot better fit than Biyombo) just because Fournier's contract is $17M/year through 2021. So you're right, everyone is afraid of contracts right now.

The reason in the end why I don't think the Jazz make a move is flexibility seems to be their #1 priority right now. Not making a move will allow flexibility this offseason to decide if they want to resign Favors & Hood and flexibility to decide to let them go and then have the flexibility to...

If Hood were on another team doing exactly what he's doing statistically and we found out he wanted to come to the Jazz, we would all be ecstatic to add him to the team.

I put this together when their pick looked lower and rounded up. I still won't be one bit shocked if Rodney gets a $17 million offer sheet. You could give or take a few million on any of those salaries really I think.

Here's a visual of what the Jazz salaries could look like next year if they kept everyone. I think it would definitely put the Jazz into the luxury tax.

I guarantee they will involve Ricky Rubio throwing him an alley-oop.
