NBA Free Agency Moves in General (related to the Jazz, but not just moves made by the Jazz)

Gotta say guys I haven't been super inspired by the free agency moves. Rubio and Mitchell are great editions to the roster but overall its been a pretty **** off season so far, especially in the front court where i think we look thin.

Yeah they're not taking the NBA by storm with these moves.. they're just placeholders for when guys like Donovan Mitchell and Exum are ready to take off IMO (probably 2+ years when these contracts expired).

Jerebko and Udoh are placeholders for Exum and Mitchell?

Okay.
 
Why does Nuno SA have Utah adding Ingles and THEN using MLE for Thabo and Udoh, The reverse would happen. Utah fits them under the cap and THEN signs Ingles. MLE not used at all.

Because they need to stay over the cap in order to keep the big MLE. And because we are currently over the cap.
 
I like these 3 signings, good quality bench guys. Jerebko will come in and sort some **** out at times in a similar vein fashion to Book, Harping and Big Dawg.
 
I don't put much stock into this thing, but thought it was funny how 538's CARMELO projection tool puts Diaw's 5-year market value at -3.6 million. That's right, negative 3.6 million. In other words, Boris Diaw should have to pay you for the privilege of allowing him on your NBA roster.

edit: Joe Johnson is "way past his prime" and his 5-year market value is 900K. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/carmelo/joe-johnson/
The one thing I did like that I saw was they had Rubio with a 5-year market value of 141 million as a "borderline All-Star" and George Hill with a 5-year market value of 59 million as a "key role player", meaning Utah got a massive upgrade using far less money than they would have had to pay Hill.
