If these were our only 2 options at PG next summer who would you sign?

I'm inclined to say Calderon, but I trust GVC immensely and he pretty much hates him.
I may vote later. Neither are anything approaching ideal.
Playing well is priority #1 and nothing outside of that is really even close. If you're hoping someone else ****s up, then you don't deserve the break.
I agree. Not ideal.Originally Posted by NUMBERICA
But do we ever get an ideal situation in Utah?? lol
What is ideal next summer?

CP3 would be ideal...... extremely unlikely, but ideal nonetheless.
Neat draft pick? Michael Carter-Williams? Trey Burke? B.J. Young? And one of them works out? I guess you could keep one of those guys around to transition the younger guy in such a scenario, but chances are they'd just be perpetually buried and we will all pull our hair out until Calderon's/Mo's contract expires.

Neither. Realistically, the best PG we can get is going to come through trade, and that means one of our young guys will have to go. I'd be dangling Hayward or Burks, but I wouldn't rule out anybody if it brought back the right player.

Trade Sap and Earl for this guy + sweetener. He can play with Mo, start, or make the bench completely awesome. He plays like Good Tinsley every night.

They are so similar that it would eventually come down to the question of price and contract length. And I think that Calderon could be had for less, so Calderon it is.
Calderon every time.
I voted for Mo because I hate traffic cones.
I think Mo should play half of his minutes at the 2 and we should give Maynor another go. I know he has had his cone-like moments, but he's young and could be had right now for a pick.

(first update) Offseason to-do list:
(no order)
1. Let Mo, Foyeeee3, Al (s&t?), Watson, and Tinsley go.
2. Re-sign Carroll
3. Draft McCollum, Schroeder, and Giannis (leave the latter two in Europe for a year [maybe two years for Giannis]).
4. Sign Tony Allen
5. Try to keep Millsap. If that doesn't work, explore s&t options.
6. Remove Corbin. Hire Brad Stevens or SVG.
7. Sign Calderon to a one-year (2 max) deal, or see if the cash-strapped Lakers will let us absorb Nash's last year.
Seriously, play this guy with Favors/Kanter and see what happens.

Jefferson straight across, more or less.

Does anyone think Calderon could pull a Kidd and learn to shoot? He'd be a steal if.... Taking Calderon means accepting a point guard as the 4th-5th best player on the team. Not exactly Jazz ball. Mo is arguably top 3 on this team.
Mo has bootleg running through his veins. I love his fire. Hard for me to root against Mo IF he is the bottom starter on the team like Calderon would have to be for any meaningful success.

Ahem tank
Calderon's a career average 39% 3 point shooter, 90% FT shooter, and 48% FG....his problem is defense
Really? I'll take a biff on this, but isn't that a knock? What's with not scoring much for a guy with good 3 %?
Literally any team in the league can have him today. Why no takers?
