Shaq

With Shaq, the Jazz beat the Nuggets last year. This is a move largely on the margins, but the margins are where games are won and lost.
 
You dont get bird's rights for next year off 1 year deals, right?
No. Jazz would need (and should see if they can do) a SnT. Send NWG? IDK. It would give us AND Shaq something meaningful moving forward.

I’m not positive Shaq had full Bird Rights to begin with. Which if he didn’t, this might give the Jazz Early Bird? I’d have to look it up.

Yep, just have Shaq and Royce chasing after Jamal Murray all game. If he still turn Curry on us, so be it
 
And how might we identify the truth from everything else out there, O Wise One?
The truth is revealed when one of Woj or Shams tweets about it... and then BANG! It happened. I don't know what exactly happened, but it happened... This is the weirdest mini-drama/news-leak/whatever it was I've seen recently around here. :cool:
 
I want to see how the perimeter defense does with...

Gobert
Royce
Oni
Shaq
Donovan

That could be crazy good. Wow! We got a ton of different defensive looks with this signing.
I'd go with Morgan over Rudy in the lineup. With enough perimeter defense we can move away from the drop big scheme entirely and throw variations at opponents who think that they've got Rudy figured out. This will be crucial comes playoff time

Clayton beat them to it. Credit all goes to him
 
Haven't been following... what are the Cliff Notes on this dude? Whose minutes is he going to get?

Oh yeah, Morgan. That would be crazy.

How about this... Clarkson is the primary scorer and a ton of defense around him. This looks like a great 2nd unit.

Morgan
Royce
Oni
Shaq

It's like... he beat them to it... but then chickened out of it... do we count it as beating them if you refuse to stand behind your report?

Probably most of Oni's and the 2nd/3rd point guard like NWG minutes. So basically Mudiay but a great defensive specialist who doesn't need the ball in his hands.

Most disruptive defender in the NBA. Legit wing size, can guard 1-3, shot 38% from 3 last year in a limited role. Played PG in college so not just a stanchion offensively, has a little juice there.

Could be a gem and could realistically be better than Royce. Even if he just stays 9th man, he should have plenty of opportunities for minutes the second anyone 1-4 goes down with an injury or gets covid.
