Carl and Pleiss were waived by the Sixers this morning. If we are on a win now campaign he did average 10 ppg for the Sixers last year and was the first player taken in the 2nd round of the NBA Draft.
 
I mean it's basically just throwing 3-5 million away so he can sit his *** on the bench for 82 games

I always thought that Carl Landry was a poor man's Paul Millsap. He's an okay player, but it's not the right time to get him on the Jazz.
 
I think Landry would bring good toughness (something we don't have) and more veteran help. He would be a good pickup for sure. Bolomboy would be cut which would be a bummer. Landry probably comes at a higher cost than Bolomboy, but he probably helps out more in a bind. I doubt he would get time over the rest of bench between Gobert, Favors, Withey, Diaw, Lyles, and Hayward who could play some 4.

If we can't sign players to extensions then I think we are below the salary cap floor and Landry would be cheap insurance, vet experience, a bit of fight and bite, and a bargain at $3 million.

Nah, we should pick up Pleiss. His shooting mechanics are unreal.

We have Favors who is borderline allstar a young stud in Lyles we are developing and just signed Diaw. Why the hell would u even suggest him??
 
If we had a roster spot and he took the minimum I'd be game. Landry isn't a d league guy though so not sure how Homey knew about him.
