Do you give them a call if you're the FO?

Meaning PG13 and Lebron's agent?

I would. Even for a max 1 year deal it's worth a shot. Rockets won't have Clint next year and the Warriors a year older.
 
We would be sick with Lebron.

But we'd have to dump a ton of dudes. Who? Sef, Udoh, JJJ, Burks...is that even enough?
 
Yes. Then I'd leak to the media that we've been in touch with them. I wouldn't do this with the expectation that we'd land them, but because if you're wanting to dance with the pretty girls, you've gotta start asking the pretty girls out.

Soon, we'll be that Funke that everyone's been talking about.

i agree you make the calls and let it leak to the media. You show Donovan, Rudy and the rest that you're serious about competing. And even if Utah doesnt land a top- tier star (which I doubt happens), players on the next level down, and their agents, get the message the Jazz want to add quality players.

Uhh, do any of these agents think the Jazz dont want Lebron or Paul George?

It has more to do with avoiding the mentality of "she ain't going out with me so I ain't even gonna ask." If you walk into something thinking someone out of your league won't give you the time of day because they're out of your league, you'll be right 10 times out of 10.

Would be nice to get a meeting with one of the big FAs or have them announce that they have us on the schedule. Wade and Denver did something like that... they landed Paul Millsap after... I think mostly cuz they offer the most money... but hey it's something right.
 
I'm not convinced LeBron could step into this team environment and suddenly 'be cool' with being in a system. Of course, he's been dropping hints that he doesn't want to be so ball dominate all the time... this could work out REALLY well for him if he wanted to put in a little work. Plus, he gets through the West and it's basically a guaranteed 'ship.

PG on the other hand isn't winning anything in his career unless he: A) goes East or B) signs with us, Houston, or GS. I also think he'd thrive here but you might have a logjam with Ingles unless Quin goes primarily small ball.
 
I could see PG fitting here very well. He could start and Ingles come off the bench. That gives both our starting 5 and our bench a strong boost. Also you could play them together in a crazy small ball lineup, something like Rubio/DM/PG/Ingles/Favors. All kinds of scoring there and playmaking galore. The more I consider it the more I would love to see PG on our team. If he isn't expected to be the man I think he wouldn't fade like he did. I think partly the pressure of it can get to him, but playing alongside a DM and a very unselfish group of guys he would flourish. Look at all the contested shots he took in the series against us. Give him as many open looks as our offense generates and he would be in heaven. That makes us instant contenders and maybe even approaching favorites depending on the supporting cast.

I remember going out to lunch with a co-worker when I was about 24. A smoking hot 10 that went to college with me (but we didn't know each other) was waiting on me. As I left, I asked her out. She said she had a boyfriend.

****.

But I am glad I tried.

I had a friend that would ask out every gorgeous girl he saw. He was rejected 99% of the time but guess what? He always had a hot date every weekend. Just takes one to say yes.

Yep. That's what you have to do. I usually didn't. Wish I did.

My go to move was get drunk at a club, start dancing with some girl for about 5 seconds, quickly change it to grinding, and then begin making out just another 5 seconds later. No skill really. Just drunken shenanigans.

Me asking a drop dead gorgeous 10/10 babe is like asking LBJ to take the veterans to come here minimum lol
