Calling the shot

Ummm.... guis.....


Pipe dream. He'll go to a bigger name and bigger market contender. No one is clamoring to come to Utah. Hell Conley didn't want to come to Utah and he's about the biggest name player we've ever brought in. No way in hell he comes here. If he did we would be instant contenders.

It was also a pipe dream to think he could get bought out.
 
Any ideas on what we could do as far as a Stayward-type campaign for OPJ? If you're a dude who takes a buyout and some team's fans have put some money behind a campaign, it's gotta draw attention. I'd be willing to throw some money in. Obviously a billboard won't catch his attention in SLC... I'm open to ideas.

A billboard that encourages DL to call him might be effective.
 
He’s not on cameo. Maybe we buy his topshot cards and gift them to him... don’t think he’s on there yet either.
 
Damn. Exactly right. Someone draft a photoshop.
In the billboard remind DL that he can mention how he liked him a long time ago and almost had a deal done when Hayward left. He loves that narrative.

Because we have had interest in him before... it makes me think DL would actually call him.

This being out there might also make us more likely to stand pat at the trade deadline... not that we have a lot going for us there anyway.
 
I gave a finals guarantee with RHJ. I'll give a title guarantee with OPJ. Ask DL how much my word on that's worth to him.

You gotta print that on the box though.
 
Here is the original. I don't twitter so I don't know how to paste it properly.

 
@infection one thing we can do, I believe, is offer OP part or all of our BAE at 3.6M. I think it is prorated, but not sure. Where it might get enticing is offering the second year player option at the BAE... as some injury protection for him.

So could be a better than minimum offer.

This is awesome. If anyone has any second round picks, keep burning them because this keeps getting better and better.

This route also requires Ryan to offer up some of his dollars as a sacrifice to the nba luxury tax gods.
