Milos Teodosic interested in the Jazz

Is superior marksmanship not covered under 'better version on offense'?

IDK, just the way I think of "better version" I think of a player who plays the same way, but just with improved efficiency. I dont even consider the 3pt shot being in Rubio's arsenal at all, so I dont consider anyone who shoots the 3 to really be a version of Rubio, but I get what you were going for in regards to comparing their passing creativity/vision.
 
Think of Jose Calderon's overall skillset. Teodosic is a little bit more cocky and assertive. Instead of Chris Paul's surgical decision making(Calderon) take Jason Kidd's flashy/risky passes.

Would make sense for the Jazz. With Rudy it's tempting to try how much Rudy can compensate. Teodosic would be the ultimate test. Worst case you let him play with your 2nd unit and rotate Rudy, Hood and Hill out early, let a Exum, Ingles/Burks, Hayward, Lyles + Favors lineup try to work some magic and then bring in a very versatile Teodosic, Exum, Hood, Lyles, Gobert look to completely annihilate 2nd units.
 
I think Ingles defensive development has Quin believing he can turn anyone into a shut down defender. The less they look like a good defender the better.

I don't think there is any truth to this at all. I don't think we can negotiate a contract for this summer and can't see a guy committing for a FA period six months ahead of time.

I think Tomic, Milos, and Tibor will form Jazz Europe and play over there.

He already said on record if he comes to the NBA it's to the Jazz or Spurs. It's not crazy to think this has truth to it.
 
This sounds like back up plan to not being able to resign Hill. Or they are trying to drive up his price early. I am guessing the spurs will be very interested in him this off-season and they might want to start driving his price up now.

You are right deals for free agency are always happening six months in advance before either side knows what they will need... which is what the link indicates. If it said there was serious interest from both sides then sure... terms of deal are done and he's coming in the fall... nah.

So It kind of is crazy to think there is truth to it. But I thought it was crazy to think trump could be president so who the hell knows.

Verbal agreements can happen

Hopefully the Spurs go after him and don't try to clear a bunch of cap space for Hill. Because Hill has said in the past he would like to return to SA.
 
Ive just been watching recent Teodosic highlights. I would be so psyched if he came back and we retained Hill. We could trot out some insane shooting lineups.
 
From a fan on RealGM:

Spoke to guy who leaked this, source is his long-time friend from Belgrade where he played game yesterday.It didn't pick up steam in USA but some serbian pages and websites picked it up.Take it in any case with grain of salt.

Milos was out 2 weeks from his team and reason was "rest".It was sketchy because he played 10 years w/o free summer.He used that time to travel to USA and talk with some teams.Apparently he decided its gonna be Jazz from next summer.Spurs and Jazz were the most serious candidates.

Deal is worth 30 milions over 4 years, not sure of any options or structure.Quin Snyder played key role as Milos likes him and they know and respect each other.CSKA also offered more than generous sum but he ultimately decided to try himself in NBA as this might be his last chance to play some time among best.

Milos stated several times he doesn't care if he comes of the bench as long he has role that suits him and he believes Snyder will find right role for him next year.

Take it with a grain of salt.
