What's new

Trey Lyles being held out of practice/Summer League for now

Where all this speculation really gets interesting is how we parlay Paul George into Kevin Durant and picks. I've been thinking about that a lot the past couple of days, and if what PKM implies is true, then I can't see how this parlay doesn't go down immediately afterward. My sources tell me that OKC knows Durant is outta there after the end of this year. So, the jazz get him for one year + he signs a one-year deal for 2016-17 so he hits FA when the cap is at it's peak. The jazz obvi win the championship one or both of those years, so he signs with us long-term.

My main hang-up with this right now: ... this plan does not constitute cake baking. It also moves Hayward back to Shootin' Guard, which would be an absolute nightmare.

Kevin Durant is known to talk to Karl Malone a lot.

I know it would be really tough, but if the Jazz got Kevin Durant, I think we'd be strong enough to somehow find a way to cope with Hayward at shooting guard.
 
Yeah decent chance what's brewing is a 3 way. Problem is usually there is a leak out of NY related trades and we got nothing so far...

Brewing a 3 way? I think I know what I'm gonna call my next beer...
 
Wow, you guys must really be bored to engage in this level of trolling. I know it's the off season, but come on.
 
Any meaningful FAs still out there? Not that I want the Jazz to sign one, just wondering what the activity level around the league is expected to be.

Enes Kanter is going to sign for over $15.5M annually. True story.

15.5M? Is that all?

That's like bench warmer money nowadays.
 
I'm talking to anyone who has been perpetuating the ridiculous trade rumors like the Jazz getting Paul George or Kevin Durant.

Ok. Ok. I was gonna say... I'm seriously gonna make a Three Way Triple Session IPA. No trolling.

But yeah, anyone that thinks they know anything... get real.

Makes the Favors and Burks contracts look like pocket change. Hayward's contract looks really good now too.

We all should be pinching ourselves 'cause we've got Rudy for less than 1.2 mil this year!
