This is all BS. Just bring in Kevin Love and let’s be done with all this posturing ...
Doesn't matter. Mitchell is selling tons of merchandise and season ticket holders are being hit with a huge price increase. As long as the general public continues to support a treadmill team, the FO has little incentive to take risks.
Dennis first priority is to ensure he has a job until retirement. The board's role is to maximize profits. Both are doing a helluva job at that.
Confused why anyone thinks Tobias staying in Philly is a done-deal. I'm not even sure they offer him the full-max (or that they should, considering he's clearly the 4th option on that team).Yeah, people just need to be patient. Lowry or Conley take us out of 2019 FA altogether. Neither is a good long-term solution. Nor is Ricky. Jazz FO should stand pat now that they missed out on T Harris.
How is that a disaster? Mirotic is not as good as Conley.Ya, they'd have to. Imagine the disaster if Conley declined and Mirotic signs elsewhere next season. Risky move. But high reward if it works out.
So who do you think we get in free agency? The studs and even 2nd tier guys likely re-sign with their teams. Or if not, we're not getting Durrant, Kyrie, etc.Yeah, people just need to be patient.

Because the Jazz would just lose one 1st for renting Mirotic.How is that a disaster? Mirotic is not as good as Conley.

Ah I see. That would be a disaster. That is why I'm not sold on a 1st for him. Just get him this off season if he wants to be here. He's not a max player so he could be had then. I have no interest in giving up assets for him.Because the Jazz would just lose one 1st for renting Mirotic.
This is why tanking should be very attractive for small market teams. Both free agency and trade options are a joke! Why would we give up value for player who doesn't want to be here(when they are tied to long-term contract)? Why would we give competitive offers for players that are likely to be gone once their contract is up(for short term contract)?
This is one of the biggest competitive disadvantages in the league for small market teams. There are 3 ways to attract premier talent in the league - draft, free agency and trades. Two of them are rendered obsolete or losing for small market teams. Practically the only way you can rely on is the draft...
