.@BBallInsiders says the Jazz got $3 million (!!!) in the #42 for #55 trade in the draft? That's impressive.

Further explains potential willingness to cut Pleiss. The deal basically paid for the Jazz to cut ties and sign Bolomboy.
 
They could get the $3MM whether or not they cut Pleiss. Not sure how this is relevant.
Because you have to convince your owner to sign off on deals like paying a guy to not be on your team.

Jesus, Lindsey is a genius.

Yeah cause no other GM could of done the exact same thing.. Genius? Okay if setting up a team that is full of role players and lack a go to guy which therefore lacks a team that could get to a second round playoff series. To me that is average, not genius but to each his own I suppose
 
Jazz could save more cash too by cutting Whitey. DO not see what yall see in that guy. He is a fringe NBA player. That does not have anything he is great at on the court. A Dime a dozen big guy that can be found in Every NBA Draft and free agent pool
 
Cleveland bought a pick for 2 million which was KAy Felder and then gave him a nice signing bonus. GMS do their jobs but to call him a genius because of this is plain silly. Like I said read my post up above,. A Genius get s a team that is a threat. DL has put together a first round bounce type of team. All role players(solid ones however) and no star. It is why OKC wil lend up with better record this season because they have a star and role players also but they got the star.,
 
Welp, that settles it. Proof has been presented and DL is not a genius.
Neither was Thomas Edison, Einstein, or Tesla. None of those dip****s ever created a contending bb team.

Minimum contract, negligible if any savings depending on who you replace him with.

Okay Captain Genius Mr I am not nerdy but cool but still smarter plus and better at nerd stuff and what you arbitrarily deem non nerdy stuff and pretend to be tall and good at everything and oh hey I have a big dick that no one asked about but must be a lie because who the **** brags about their dick on an internet sports message board or maybe is just trolling for dudes or ladies which is cool but I am pretty sure there are better places for that but the overall summary is that your a fake personality and a boring one at that and you are not even a fan of the Jazz even on your main account or maybe you used to be but are such a bitter person that you stopped being years ago but have a grudge against the Jazz for your way to invested life in sports that didnt end up the way you want to you make a bunch of accounts to express your anger about it and call yourself [MENTION=501]ncoloradojazz[/MENTION] so your not too embarrassed on your main account,

What would you have done to make the Jazz a contender this off-season? Or better yet lets hear your 5 year plan with the benefit of hindsight of what you would have done that would have made Jazz better right now. I would prefer if it was remotely realistic and lets not do stuff that is pure luck like winning the lottery the year there is a good player at the top and picking that player, or pretending you knew every player in the draft that would be good and you would have picked.

Everyone defines "star" their own way to meet their argument. What is your definition of "star" and what is your list of current NBA "stars." Next please map out the specific and credible deals that DL could execute to get them on the Jazz.

That is a fair hypothesis.

No doubt it help DL's support from the Millers if he is looking out for their bottom line. And helps his power within the organization.

But it is hard to know how the Millers think about these things regarding another transaction. If DL says to them "we don't believe Tibor can help us win and our team will be better off without him on the roster," are they more likely to say "yes" if they just raked in $3MM on a separate deal? My guess is "no" but who knows?

I do hope this type of move builds goodwill in the future when they may want to go above the cap and even into luxury tax territory if the deal gives them a credible change for a title.

It does not take a genius to know the difference between "could of" and "could have"

(my apologies to others, I hate grammar Nazis, but NCJ is such an easy target)

It's very gentlemanly of you to use so few periods in this post because ncolorado already has way too many of those.
