Dok's and Bolarmo's options not picked up:

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I don't really care that much, but still interesting that these guys made the roster over Butler. If Butler would have showed anything this year, I believe he would have been restricted, so the decision could have been delayed until the end of the year. Whereas we already had to make a decision on these guys with not much more information than we had at the end of training camp.

Why do these contracts get set up so that team options have to be decided so early?

Tells you how much they actively disliked Butler

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Unbelievable, we kept these two jokers over Butler, who was at least able to somewhat contribute on both sides of the court.

Butler was ***

People are going towards Butler, but my bigger question is towards Johnson.

Seemed like he fit the team more than Bolmaro. I get keeping Udoka because of center depth issues, but why keep Bolmaro? The dude looked like a guaranteed non-NBA player in SL. Johnson also seemed like a positive dude. Maybe he had more expectations for minutes than the Jazz we're willing to give, so they just parted ways.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Might as well waive them and try out some G-League PGs.

Why on Earth would you waive them? They are trade filler.

Dok looks useless but I think if balmaro gains some confidence on the offensive side of his game he could be a solid 9th or 10th man in a rotation

Bolmaro is far more useless than Dok. If you are scared to shoot, can't make when open, can't finish in the paint, and struggle to get your shot off when defended you don't have a NBA future unless you are just incredibly talented physically and in other aspects of the game.

We picked Butler before Ainge joining the team. I think Butler was DL's pick so not too surprised we shipped him off like that

Iverson voice: "...we in here talking about Butler. I mean, listen: We talking about Butler. Not a rotation guy. Not a rotation guy. Not a rotation guy. We talking about Butler. Not a rotation guy. Not a rotation guy that has gotten any better or become more consistent on his shot. Not the rotation guy. We talking about Butler, man."

They may have thought someone would pick Johnson up since he was on a min deal. Would have saved Ryan some coin. I'm honestly shocked he is unemployed still. Stanley was really good in his brief appearances and seems to be amazing in the locker room. Like I would have thought Miami or Phoenix would have picked him up since they have issues at PF.

There also may have been some priority based on contract size but if they are actually being competitive then Stanley is a way better fit.

As one of the biggest JB supporters here... it sounds like he was a cocky ******* who isn't ready to be the player he could be.

Butler wasn't anyones guy when they saw him up close

Man. We killed it In those drafts!

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

It's wild to think of an alternate universe where the Jazz draft Herb Jones and Desmond Bane

Or even Jaden McDaniels and Ayo

Outside of DM and Rudy, we drafted 0 NBA players in the last ten years. Hood/Burke/Lyles were the closest things but they are all currently struggling to make it

How would butler contribute? Be insurance in case Conley, Clarkson, Sexton, NAW, and Beasley went down to injury?

Snyder wasn’t perfect at all. Gobert and Spida had their deficiencies. But man our FO didn’t do them any favors.

 

[jom2003]

I mean even Nick Richards would’ve been much better than Dok. The dude currently averages near double double in 20 minute.

Nvm. Hood and Burke out of the league already which makes Lyles the lone survivor.

 

[//r00t 4 Jazz]

Hood made it but inuries did him in, mostly that Achilles injury is what did him in. IMO his family or agent did him no favors either but turning down the Jazz' extension offer either, that bigger pay day never came.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Or even Jaden McDaniels and Ayo

Not sure those two would have been enough to change the Don/Gobert era, but they would have been nice pieces for the current team

Hoods injuries definitely held him back, but I think there was clearly mentality stuff holding him back too. He really wanted to be a 20+ ppg type scorer in the NBA instead of developing his complete game. That Kobe game changed him.
