I think Pat Bev is the guy but that only is the case for me if DL can pull off a trade for a playmaker at a different position. I wouldn't be happy with just the current roster+Bev if I'm Hayward. If the team is sure Hayward is coming back then I might actually go this route, and see if I can rehab Favors/Burks value with a healthy half season.

There's no rehabbing Favors value as far as the jazz are concerned. If he comes out and torches the league for 20 games and puts to bed all injury concerns, he's still only 60 games from UFA. JFCers need to ****ing realize this and stop talking nonsense.
 
Obvious to me after we drafted two point guards and no power forward, Hill's money will be used on a free agent power forward.

Hopefully Gallinari, we also are down a 4 on our depth chart after Lyles was traded to Denver helping insure Galli is on the market.

Would have to be a sign and trade... we don't have cap space.

I think he is moved... and probably in the next two weeks.

I think it's likely he is moved soon, but I could see a situation where they are not getting fair offers and the calculus changes to him being more valuable as a trade piece at the deadline. That all depends on whether or not they really believe he can get healthy again. As of right now with no other moves he is the starting 4.

There's a lot of sense to doing so. None of which, btw, need to be read as a commentary on the quality of player Derrick is (I know you know this... I'm writing to all). The most important reason is continuity throughout the 2017-18 season and beyond. There's virtually no chance we are paying to bring him back after next year, and rather than recouping value mid-season (which won't be any higher than it is now, IMO, and will definitely disrupt team play), might has well grab some value now.

I feel like bumping my worry thread.
 
So how about this...

With Mitchell on board I think Exum is a bit expendable. We could move him now if we felt it got us some value. With that said...

Exum, Favs, Burks, and OKC pick for Bledsoe and Dudley. Dudley plays small ball 4 with starters. Bled brings more creating and can be a good defender when engaged and healthy. Two birds... one stone?

I am not sure Phoenix is going full rebuild based on the rumors, but this would start them down the road.

If Hayward is here or if he is gone he doesn't fit either way. It sucks, but hopefully he finds a good situation and he will want to do it now to make sure he gets paid.

Also it sounds like we are still committed to keeping Burks and Exum and rehabbing their value. I think it is somewhat wise on both of them. We'd have to give up an asset to trade Burks and he could change that.

I still wouldn't be surprised if we had to dump Burks to make room in the right trade. But, if not, then yeah let's see what he can do. My expectations are low as ****.
 
I ignored salary when I voted. All things being equal I'd like to have Hill back. But obviously things aren't equal. I don't want the Jazz to pay Hill too much. Actually I wouldn't mind if they paid him a lot for one more year but not long term.

That is unrealistic.
 
Man I just couldn't trade Exum without knowing what the hell Hayward is doing.

If Hayward leaves then you have a bigger opportunity for AB and Exum to get a lot of time and maybe get right. I'm encouraged by Exum's offseason and if Hayward leaves I need to talk myself into him being a superstar.

Any deal we make for a PG needs to be around the fringes... so if Rubio or Bev costs the OKC pick then sure... if not I'm hoping I can get Hill and Hayward.

I only think bledsoe is available if they get a PGOTF.
 
As for Rubio, what are you willing to trade to save 5.5 million a year for 2 years? That money likely means very little in the big picture. We should still be able to avoid the tax for one more year. After that, it doesn't affect anything except how much tax the trust pays.

I'm still on the Hill bandwagon. I'd rather spend the money than trade assets for a player who can't shoot.
Beverly would be 2nd on my list.

In a one year bubble I agree... I think the issue is there is no way Hill can get resolved prior to Hayward signing. I think we have already moved on personally.
 
Until the Hayward situation is resolved one way or another, it is George Hill by a light-year.

If Hayward is out, Hill becomes last option because the Jazz should rebuild.
