Bad NBA Contracts for Assets Explained

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.

We can be a free agent spot if we win and have good players to pair up. If we have a Star in Mitchell and a all NBA center who plays elite defense and are winning other people will want to play with them. Players care about multiple things with destination. One of them is the actual location, Utah isn't high on that list for most players except a few like Lillard. But many many more care about winning (type of player we want) and money something we can offer.
 
What hole doucheZilla? Why don't you read the articles and do the math. We are a team that can benefit from other teams' poor finances. Please go back under your rock when the Jazz make a deal using one of our expirings.

Ron - on what world do you think we will win enough the next 18 months to warrant enough wins to lure free agents?

Everybody wants to let Joe and Favors expire. How do we replace their production? We go into next year with Exum 100% and a late lottery pick and we are all the sudden a "winner". How?

The reality is this - we are on a path to lose Favors and Joe for nothing. We will reinvest our money into re-signing Hood and Exum. We will draft in the late lottery. After 2018-19, we have one max contract of space but a team that has maybe made the 2019 playoffs barely. Who do we overpay at that point? What 3rd tier overpay free agent do we target?

80-90% % of the trade suggestions on this board make zero sense at all and I have no interest in being part of that. And it seems to me that your desire is simply to prove you are smarter than others who post here and/or you have a real need to keep a thread alive. So be it. The real good news is that DL and his team know more about what makes sense and what is doable then anyone on here and they are making decisions with both short term and long term needs in mind. There are definitely times when letting people walk after a contract expires makes a lot more sense then bringing on more salary. I trust them to figure that out. Go Jazz. Now, as you wish, I will go away.
 
Is it a general consensus on this board that people are prepared to take on Mahinmi's bad contract?

Seriously starting to think Saint Cry is Donald Trump. Can someone verify he's not? Could Trump have enough time for golf and JFC?
 
Cy, I dont waste time worrying about you. You plead for us to believe in a Gordon deal then take low blows to other ideas.

Back to topic - I only want to take a bad contract if we get a great asset in return. I want Orlando's 1st or many picks from Houston or many picks from Washington or Parker from the Bucks etc.
