Guys like Tobias? Hell no. Lets just run it back with our old team.

Does this make it more likely the Wolves match Bjelica if another team extends an offer?
Totally against what I said earlier:
Is my math off or could we sign both Kemba and Tobias next offseason?
-Kemba/Exum (maybe we couldn’t if we sign Dante...)
-DM, Grayson
-Ingles, Royce
-Tobias, Jae
-Rudy, Bradley
I’m going off the idea that the cap will rise to $108m next year, BTW.
According to Pelton, last summer 1 WAR cost $2.8M. This year 1 WAR projects to cost between $1.15-$1.75M on the free agent market. The Jazz should really be looking to add one or two quality players for a couple years w/the midlevel this summer.
Harris/Middleton/Klay are all good players, but none of them is likely to be worth the $25-$30M it will cost to be the high-bidder for their services in 2019.
If the W's don't give Klay the max and he signs an offer somewhere else, it won't be Utah. I guarantee it.
538 projects Klay for fewer WAR than Joe Ingles this upcoming season. Klay will also be 29 at the start of what would be his first year on the max contract, 30 y/o by the time the playoffs begin.
I like Klay, but giving a max deal to a 29/30 y/o guy who is good, but not great, is typically a bad bet.
