Yah these. Attitude and background's really important to the Jazz as an Org. No way they'll offer Stephenson anything. Not one dime.

The key is not to have a whole team of knuckleheads. Good orgs can usually absorb a couple. We've had Kirk Snyder, Robert Whaley, and others that were worse people with far less upside. You could get rid of Lance in a New York minute at 27 mill over 3.

There are certain dudes you don't allow into your organization no matter what. I'd say no to Stephenson at any price.

I think most people view this stuff like fantasy teams... Just plug a guy in and it all works. I would not want this guy around our young guys period. The team that knew the most about him said no thanks. If we had a veteran team... Maybe, but this guy is one of the biggest head cases in the league.
 
It's also possible the Jazz reached out to Lance and were told no thanks, don't bother.

Just because someone else was able to land him as a FA, doesn't necessarily mean we didn't put an effort into it.

Yes, him being paid 3/27M makes us jealous because we are paying Hayward so much.

Let's just move on and not bring this up every time someone else signs a contract for less.

Actually, Indiana offered more years and more money if I remember right. He just turned it down.
 
Also, there is no chance that Stephenson would want to play in Utah. None. Zero. Nada. Zilch.

What I don't like is that Charlotte ran Hayward's numbers to the max screwing us and still end up with a player arguably better at a more reasonable price. I dislike this Cho guy.

Yea, Cho was a jerk for doing so but that is what you get when you announce to the world that you are willing to match a max deal. It was stupid for the Jazz to do so and they only have themselves to blame. This is DLs first major screw up.

I think this deal is what Indy offered him so there must have been something else going on. As long as Charlotte can manage his personality they got a talented player.
 
Stephenson and Evans going to dominate together..... lolololol.


Wait, team name change, Hornets are the Bobcats, not the Pelicans.
 
I don't think mr Greene was talking about the Jazz, Stephenson, or Hayward, but I thought his tweet was fitting...

Are you building a title contending basketball squad or a Boy Scout Troop ...
 
Cho just managed to turn the loss of Josh McRoberts into a better player.

Hes got Vonleh, Zeller and Biyombo, all of whom could play next to Al.

Kidd-Gilchrist broke his hand last year, he should be better. Jeffrey Taylor was injured too.
Lance and Gerald Henderson at SG is solid.

Kemba is going into a contract year. So is Gary Neal.

They should safely be in the playoffs next year.

Pretty sure Cho just wanted Hayward... Don't think he had a master plan to just drove up his price. He ended up settling for Lance.
