Players I don't want on this team next season

The problem in keeping Hill is our future cap. People realize losing Hill without a replacement is a step back. But long-term it may be the better cap move. Destroying our cap flexibility to keep Hill kills any chance we may have of winning a championship.

What cap flexibility? Exum, Hood, Favors all up for new deals after next year. Gobert and Hayward will take up half the cap between those 2 players alone. Utah could make a run at a good FA next year, but after that there isn't going to be any significant cap room.

Hill is a really good 2-way PG. Those guys don't grow on trees. Fans can dream of signing CP3 all they want, but when you start passing up really good players because you think you can go after great ones, it seldom works out.

Utah had by far the best offseason last year after GS, and the players we scored on were Hill, Johnson and to a lesser degree, Diaw. So now Hill isn't good enough for us because we want to count on successful FA acquisitions from now on?

Some of you guys need a reality check.

Had we drafted Devin Booker and he was in the lineup tonight, we might have just won that game.

More like Klay would have gone for 40 and we would have stood no chance. Booker like all inefficient offensive players and horrible defensive players would not get many minutes on a play off team.
 
Here is the important thing to keep in mind...

If we go forward with people like Ingles, Mack, and Diaw in the same rolls, expect the same result.

I'm not satisfied with where are at. If we want to stand pat, and be a 4/5 seed with a early exit every year we'll turn into the Clippers.

So now we must take a hard look at the roster top to bottom, and keep the players who will help us continue to progress. Stagnation is regression.
 
It is crazy not to want Hood. He always had streaky games. What did you say after Clippers game 4, Hood for the allstar? He is the only one who can be better than a decent start in near future except Hayward and Gobert in this team. He just need hardwork in summer for his shooting and penetration.

Mack - he is an ok backup pg which we dont need anymore

Ingles - As much as i like him i dont think we should keep him for more than 5m a year. Better to get a guy like Korver off the bench. Will help us more.

Burks - not fit to our system, not a good player, overpaid

Withey - he is just not good and will not be any good any time soon. Better find a good backup for Gobert. Doesnt matter young or old. Just not overpaid.

Hill - he had a good season apart from his injuries and showed he is a decent starter in this league. But he isnt worth 15-20 m p/year and we need actually a really good player for that position next year.

Septic .. Hood has shown in 3 years that he can't penetrate and get to the free throw line. Everything points to him being a pretty average NBA shooting guard who has a few hot streaks every now and then. I don't think it'd be too hard to find a 2 guard who can shoot 37 % from 3 but who is faster and can penetrate and get to the line. And George Hill IS a really good player at that PG position.

Favors, Hill and Hood need four months off. All have talent, but ran on fumes this season.

Maybe they are just out of gas and won't be the players they use to be. I want to keep Hood unless I can package him for a better more consistent player. I have strong doubts that Favors or Hill can remain healthy. Favors is the bigger concern. Is his issue going to resolved with rest? He missed a lot of games and when he came back he had little in the tank. I hope rest will help but I have doubts he is the same player he was.
 
Guys: who I am fine not having on the roster: Neto, Whitey, Burks, Lyles,Diaw and Mack.
Guys: who I would now trade: Hood, Exum, Favors, and Ingles.

It isn't that Hill isn't good enough. It is his toe that is the problem. Plus add in he wants a big contract. If the the Jazz were able to get rid of Diaw, Favors, and Burks contracts they would have money to sign an all-star caliber player.
 
Don't want :

Snyder....I thought he was some PNR guru who knew offense,his offense sucks and he has the wrong style going for the Jazz .Jazz play in high altitude and have athletic players IF THEY PLAYED THEM.
Jazz need to pick up the tempo and pace.Gobert is a defensive stud,who is athletic .Jazz don't have to slow down for him.The offense sucks because you have to slow down for JJ,Ingles,Diaw,sore toed Hill,brokedown Favors,and mediocre Mack.
These guys would benefit from a faster pace,Hood,Burks,Hayward and the ones on the bench and Snyders doghouse ....Exum ,Lyles.
This team WILL NOT win going slow.The scores will be in the 100's against Golden State ,San Antonio,Houston and Cleveland.

Mack,Diaw,JJ,Withey can be replaced.

Why don't you want Rodney? His season got derailed by his injury in a similar way Rudy's season last year got derailed? Are we really going to give up on him after one setback and an unhealthy season? Fans are so fickle... more fickle than Rodney's jumpshot one might say.

Because Q turns him into a chucker.

The guy has skills and can't use them on this team.

It depends on what happens with Hayward. If he leaves then basiclly we are going to reboot around Rudy. We will probably trade favors and start Exum lyles and Burks. If we can resign Hayward, I bet we put all our chips in for a third star, like Butler or someone. I think Hood will for sure be in a package to make that happen.

Then I hope Hayward leaves.

But I don't really.
