I agree but we need to increase our odds (highest draft position possible) at getting that 3rd future all-star & being more than just a good team.

I think this team is better than it's shown, but it clearly needs to make adjustments/add pieces on the offensive end. And best case scenario appears to be the 7th/8th seed, with the more likely scenario being finishing 9th/10th. Unless you're sold on at least 1 of Rubio, Hood, Exum, or...

Saying we suck is going overboard imo. But we do have a somewhat patchworked roster with a clear deficiency on 1 side of the ball. I don't doubt we could still sneak into the playoffs but should we? Playoff experience is beneficial & the franchise seems to prioritize remaining...

karl malone would never pull a backstreet boy. Karl Malone doesn't know why a boy would be in the back of a street. Or how to use a computer. Hope that clears everything up.

Would people have traded Favors, a similarly conditional 1st, & a future 2nd for Bledsoe? Not sure if it would've worked salary wise but seems comparable. Personally, I'd prefer we go the other direction & reload with young talent but that doesn't seem to be the Utah way. So, while I don't...

I like the Parker fit as well but regardless of the target, all non-Gobert/Mitchell assets (aside from Exum, due to his current talent vs value ratio) should be condensed for that 3rd impact player. As the op stated, Gobert& Mitchell are clearly the future. Rubio, Hood, Ingles, & Favors all...

Like Love & the fit but not sure we match up asset-wise. Also don't like the idea of spending significant assets on someone who is unlikely to propel the team to contender status &/or remain a core member for the next 5+ years. Young talent approaching/entering their prime should be the...

Rubio is without a doubt a starting caliber PG. But he has a unique skill-set that, especially as the league has become more guard driven/perimeter oriented, needs to be specifically schemed around in order to maximize his performance/effectiveness. Rubio, understandably, is struggling to...

It all comes down to the contracts. Exum has elite tools & legitamite reasons for having yet to develop. But injuries & struggles are a definite concern. I don't know what type of contact he'll be able to demand but at the right price, preferably on a 2/3 yr deal, he's worth the gamble imo...

Imo the focus should be to condense assets such as favors/JJ & possibly Rubio/Hood/Ingles if someone offers a potential impact player in return. The team in no way should be blown up but despite the fact that our defense seemingly gives us an opportunity to win any given night, it's clear that...

I haven't followed any of their nba careers closely but from the little I've seen/remember, at the right price(s), Huestis, Hezonja, & Looney all intrigue me. Okafor can be a serviceable back-up big in the right situation imo but doesn't seem to fit the team culture. With likely mid-late 1st rd...

Unless he's indicated a willingness/desire to re-sign at a reasonable price, I think you trade him if someone offers a long-term asset. Otherwise, hope he stays healthy & let the season play out.

Separate issues. The way he left was ****ed up. So was the injury.

I have concerns regarding spacing & lack of players capable of creating for themselves but agree the potential is there if things break our way (Rubio fitting, Hood becoming go-to scorer, Mitchell hitting the ground running, Exum making a developmental leap, etc). But unless the team is...

I agree with the sentiment that internal development should take priority over chasing the #7/8 seed but only after the current roster is given ample opportunity to gel. I see the offense ultimately preventing us from being a legitimate threat but our depth & defense could/should make this team...

I question whether it makes sense to extend Hood (4/60-80ish) while Ingles is locked up at 10M per over the next 4 years. I'm not sold that a small franchises can afford the luxury of having two somewhat redundant players (who also play similar positions) taking up a significant amount of the...

I would probably hold off on extending him prior to the upcoming season unless it came at a bargain. He needs to put up a healthy, consistent year in which he also shows promise as a go-to scorer before I would be comfortable committing significant long-term money to him. This year will go a...

Referring to Bradley as a potential core member was a poor choice of words. A potential long-term contributor, likely as a role-player at best, is a more fitting description. He is certainly expendable, but his potential 7 years of control make it more likely than not that he is a part of this...

Obvously it's pre-mature to assume Mitchell becomes a long-term core member but, as of now, he clearly appears most likely on the current roster to develop into that 2nd impact player. Very few players should ever be considered truly untouchable IMO. But the Jazz are a small-market franchise...
