Jazz going to be a top 5 team in West.
 
I want him to go to p3... Just want to see the athletic testing results and see if I can beat it.

I like this move... We are so much deeper. I think we need to cut Johnson and move off of tibors deal if possible. I think we should use those spots for developing players. If we move Mack could open up another spot but I wouldn't move him for nothing.

I was thinking the Kings might be interested in Mack. They really only have Darren Collison at the point guard spot at the moment, and he is in some legal strife as i understand it. Plus they are the Kings so we could get some value out of it.
 
Only true center on the roster? You forget we have a 7' Jeff Withey and a 7'3 Tibor Pleiss? HOw does the Diaw trade signal the end of Withey/Pleiss? Last time I checked they are both under contract. It's not like we need to cut anyone to save money.

Your takes on this are bad.

I think he's one of those guys that just wants to start a discussion. He can't possibly believe this stuff
 
I love the trade. It cost the Jazz pretty much nothing and gives another veteran presence to the team in a position of need.

The Kings did sign Garrett Temple but appeared to be in the market for an experienced point guard.
 
Sweet. Can't wait till the season starts!

Because I can count roster spots. You can only have 15.

Likely normal rotation (in no specific order)
1) Gobert
2) Favors
3) Hayward
4) Hill
5) Hood
6) Exum
7) Burks
8) JJ
9) Lyles
10) Diaw
11) Ingles

That leaves 4 spots for a combination of
Mack, Neto, Bolomboy, Pleiss, Withey. There's no reason for them to cut Neto or Mack given their performances last year, their cheap contracts, and the uncertainty around Exum's recovery and whether Hill will resign next year. That leaves two spots. Unlikely they would give both to two Center's when Bolomboy is younger and provides more upside. Thus my conclusion that one is probably gone and the other is out of the rotation.

Bolomboy isnt making the team. He isnt good. The team didnt even like him that much, we traded down from 42 because we saw the pick and said "Nah, **** this, let's get some $$$ to butter up our owner".

*Mack might get traded, I doubt we cut him though. I also doubt we cut Pleiss because the Jazz never cut guaranteed contracts*
