GET PATRICK BEVERLY

I wouldn't want to do Joe for Pat for a lot of reasons. JC for Pat likely wouldn't work for Grizz as it sounds like they did the Bled deal to offload his 3.9M next year... which is weird because they have a lot of space already... not sure that changes their world one way or another. I think it'd have to be a three way deal where we send JC to a third team that gives stuff and expirings to us and Grizz.

Part of the reason I'd consider it is to clean up the cap sheet a bit... I most likely wouldn't do it straight up... I'd want some draft capital from somewhere. I think it almost certainly makes us worse in the regular season but if you told me Mike, Donovan, and Joe are all 100% healthy coming into the playoffs and you can choose between Pat Bev and JC it'd be a tough choice. I'm assuming Rudy Gay can take up some of the slack during the season and playoffs.
 
Grizz are just in asset acquisition mode. They’re reloading the chamber again and getting contracts in-line for a push on Morant’s timeline. They’ll be flipping Adams, Bev, etc for something ASAP.

I think Adams stays. I think he is their starting center this year... maybe next year or during the season. Rondo, Bev are interesting because both are expiring and basically so was Bledsoe. So they must thing they are better/more tradeable. They dumped allen to kinda clear playing time for Melton/Bane etc. so I'm not sure they go into the season with Bev/Rondo. They likely get flipped... i'd have thought Clips might flip them and do better.

I like some of what Memphis did this offseason... this may have just been dumping a guy that might be a malcontent when they had an opportunity. Bev will play for whoever so they may have preferred that attitude. Maybe they use their space next year... would love to know what the plan is there or if they are kinda just churning stuff.

I think even a reasonable offer for Adams would be accepted. But who knows. The market probably isn’t too hot. But maybe someone eventually gives a late-first for him as an injury replacement. Memphis would accept that offer pronto, imo.

For sure... I don't think an offer for an expiring is even out there right now. I think he's in their plans unless they get an offer to get off his money or get a 1st. I think he has negative value unless he comes in and shows he's healthy and playing back at his pre-NO levels. Centers are hard to move.

The Griz, Wiz, Spurs, Nets and Hawks all appear to have a surplus of players they may want to make a deal on.
 
So Grizz will need to waive/release 3 guys at some point. Maybe they move 1 or 2... but Sam Merrill is almost a guaranteed waive given their roster situation. Wonder if we could snag him with the other two way. I think he becomes a backend of the rotation type guy at some point but he might end up overseas because I think he'd do really well there.

I would't part ways with JC, Bogey or Joe to get Beverly.
It certainly won't put the Jazz closer to the title series.
Let this first post DL offseason evolve on itself a little bit.
Moves can be tried later.

I guess I get the flyer Memphis is taking on Culver but they are making their roster crunch worse. Someone on a pod indicated the reason to do the Bledsoe deal was to get Oturu which seemed weird... I mean he's fine I guess... and to get rid of the small guarantee for next year... this deal runs counter to that. Rondo definitely will get bought out. Maybe they release Merrill and Konchar now... still think they need to get off one more guarantee by camp. They need to do a 2 for 1 deal somewhere.
