2017 Draft *Lottery Ideas*

If we get into salary cap problems and the ownership is unwilling to pay luxury tax.

Do you think they will pay luxury tax? It seems like we are going to have issues in the future if we want to keep everyone? Do you disagree?

I disagree that we need money to resign players. And, it's obvious that resigning players has no impact on the cap beyond the year they are resigned.
 
Not to kill the mood, but doesn't it seem like every year is "the best/deepest draft in years". I would be more inclined to follow and research the draft it the talking heads didn't suggest that every year's draft is amazing.

This draft wont produce the Towns and Porzingis dominant 2way-type of bigs like we saw in 2015 next years superior in that aspect. The guards and wings are a LOADED crop this year though. the top-10 is truly star-studded.

I follow college closely and it's apparent that the 6'9" -6'11" PF/C types are seriously outperforming expectations early on, which should manifest itself in a log jam of bigs around the end of the 1st/start of the 2nd aka right in the range of the Jazz 2 1sts..

I dont think its a problem we need to deal with now. I meant if in the future a player needs a big contract that pushes us into luxury tax or we need to fill a position with an outside player that will be the only time Jazz look at trading Burks since his value is very low. I only see him as a salary dump or if he breaks out and he is useful then he is a good contract we keep.

I just don't think we are going to resign any of our current players.
