Bad NBA Contracts for Assets Explained

Yeah, there is a big difference between pairing Mitchell(22), Gobert (25) with a 22 year old PF with upside than a 29 year old player on the decline. A shorter contract is not necessarily better but Gallinari does not have a shorter contract either.

Look up the dictionary under "injury prone" and you'll see Gallo's picture. He is 100% reliably injury prone Good player when he's ok

Fournier's contract is good for his production. Orlando, even with Biyombo, won't be anywhere near the luxury tax even with a maxed out Gordon next year. There's no incentive for Orlando to give up assets they really need, draft picks, to dump Biyombo's 2 years.

To anybody still going on about Gallinari, huddle up in front of me. Now look into this device please.

Is there a trade you proposed that doesn't involve taking on bad contracts?

 

[LoPo]

Orlando has new management and new management almost always hates old contracts. They want a clean slate. I'm not making crap up. https://www.google.com/amp/s/orland...should-be-primary-goal-for-orlando-magic/amp/

Hekate - definitely. The trade I want most right now is Favors for Cleveland scraps (Frye doesnt play against playoff teams) and Osman. Osman is the only one on a long term deal, but he is a SF with potential. http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=ycgm7hr2

Or something a little more exotic where Indy gets another wing in Shumpert and a 2nd rounder. http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y9v98sjv

All the more reason for the Jazz to NOT **** up their own cap situation bailing another team out unless they get a windfall for their troubles. I’d rather keep our own guys and punt until 2019 rather than be a cap dump. Jazz aren’t getting closer to adding a 3rd star with ANY of the trades that have been suggested so far. Late draft picks are not worth being out of the market until after Gobert’s contract is up. If they can trade guys for positive assets without taking back long term salary? Great. Do that. Anything short of adding a star player needs to include maintaining maximum cap flexibility for the next two offseasons.

Ellis - “Now that the cap isn’t going to grow – it’s essentially going to be flat – you’re going to see financially-based trades. So teams that have flexibility in their cap are going to be in great position to take advantage.”

If its not to our advantage, we wont do it. Its that simple. But we are one of those teams with flexibility.

I would absolutely love to sign a "3rd star" in 2019. But you know what, so is half the league. We arent a free agent star destination. Half the league is in the luxury for 2018-19. Half. If we can take advantage of that before the deadline, we would be brilliant. We would be opportunistic.
