Fes, What is Holding Him Up?

So what is Fes waiting for? No one, apparently, has made him a better offer. I haven't read any rumors that other teams are interested in him, and now he's in StL, so why isn't he signing?
 
Better offer? Has anyone made him one offer? Sorry Kick but yesterday it actually came to me. Maybe we've seen him play his last NBA game.
 
From Brian T. Smith via Twitter:

#Utah_Jazz would prefer to have Fesenko situation settled before training camp starts.

#Utah_Jazz will likely push harder on Fesenko to make a decision about his future with the team in the next two weeks.

Jazz's offer to Fesenko is still on the table. Decision to return to Utah is in the hands of his camp with less than three weeks to go.

#Utah_Jazz are optimistic that Fesenko will be with team when training camp starts, sources say.

would we even know if there are any offers from teams overseas?
 
Sounds to me that a lot of teams AREN"T interested in him for a reason. Not going to make a difference anyway. Just another body that takes up space out there. I am sure jerry was keeping his play down in the summer games as well. For what is left out there i don't mind him back.

On a Saturday morning, what is holding him up (from signing) is a hangover from Club Naked (or the Russian equivalent) ...

Generally, what is holding him up? I would say his IQ. And pardon the sarcasm, but I am sooooooo surprised that no other teams have made him an offer.
 
I'm sure he'll sign before the QO expires. He has no reason to prematurely foreclose his options before then.

If the Jazz were smart they'd up their offer to lock him in for 2-3 years rather than face the prospect of unrestricted free agency next season.
 
Fes's free throw shooting in the hangup. You have to be a pretty good player in this league for teams to brush aside a 50% FT clip.

Eh, I see Elson outplaying Fes and taking most of his minutes this season. He'll be just as unwanted and worthless as an UFA next year as he is this year.

While that may be true, the Jazz wouldn't own his rights and that would probably be enough for him to bounce (whether that's good or bad, Elson isn't a long-term solution).
 
True, but what's the difference between playing Fes and taking a flier on a DL scrub? From what we've seen, even this summer, not much.

I'm sick and tired of watching someone blessed with his physical attributes piss it all away. It's disgusting and pathetic.

Agreed, but by that virtue it's difficult to find players with his physical tools in the NBA, let alone the D-League or the draft having no picks next year or likely any high picks anytime soon (Cole Aldrich would've been nice). Giving him a $2 million per year deal for two to three years is reasonable, and it's likely they can lock him up for even less at this stage.

But since it's not my money, I say go after Gortat with the Harpring TPE.
