What you think about Llull game? Could he play in Nba?

Could probably challenge for a backup spot somewhere.

It looks like that actually CAN be done if you sign a player before the last game of the regular season, see https://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q29
"With the exception of minimum-salary contracts, salaries do not pro-rate during the season."

But a lot of the language used there says things like "last day of the regular season", so I'm not sure if that can still be done all the way through Jul 1. Maybe.

Larry Coon hasn't updated a lot of info in his faq yet, so it's kind of hard to know anything for sure.

Locke mentioned it... so who knows. He may have heard it from someone. I think it might be valid... if it was other teams below the cap could do it as well.

Locke isn't knowledgeable about CBA stuff at all, so if he's talking about something this specific, I'm sure he's getting it from someone in the Jazz organization. Sounds legit to me.

In the past, teams have been able to make trades during the post season when their team was out of the playoffs, and in doing so they make it under the current cap. Therefore it makes sense that Utah could still use their cap space this year in such a manner.

103. What is the trade deadline?
The trade deadline is the point during the season after which trades are prohibited. It is defined as 3:00 PM Eastern Time on the 17th Thursday of the season (March 15 in 2011-12). The prohibition on trades lasts until the day following the team's final game of the season (see question number 100).

Maybe his game would translate better for the Jazz than Teodosic?

No

He made some nice reads in transition, that's about it.

Epke Udoh controlled the entire game. He had a nasty rip on Doncic on an isolation. Udoh was like prime Derrick Favors out there.

Just checked the box. That was a LBJesque dominating performance.

 

[Diamond77]

I like Teodosic game but I think he is not worth the money he asks to play in Nba, especially at his age.

In addition his defense is really null.

Maybe we should be talking about signing udoh as a back up to gobert and favors

Looks like a fantastic passer and good shooter. But I don't think he'll be able to Create nearly as much in the NBA. The bigs in the NBA move better than some of these opposing point guards he's playing against. And on defense, he might be the worst defensive PG we've had since Carlos Arroyo. I honestly don't know who he would be able defend in the NBA. Maybe Raymond Felton?

We need to get more athletic and faster.

That's too much of a generic way of looking at it. Our defensive identity is compromised mostly on turnovers and misses more than anything else. The top 3 defensive teams in the league all rated in the top 7 for least turnovers. Less turnovers = less fast breaks = less corner 3s. So while Milos will get beat off the dribble, at least Gobert will be in place most of the time.

We rely too much on Gobert cleaning up other's mistakes.

Not only will Milos be a defensive liability, I don't think he'll be much of a threat on offense. Beating slow euros who can't even touch the net off the dribble is different than blowing past the NBA's athletes. I see him as a player who could really struggle to get any airspace even with picks and is shot is so slow that he'd be a threat to be rejected.

If the Jazz sign him it better not be to replace Hill. Otherwise, the Jazz will be taking a step back from last year.

Milos has scored on NBA players. You can watch videos of him scoring on Jimmy Butler 1 on 1.

This guy scored on multiple NBA players in the 2004 Olympics. He averaged 6.8 whole pts his NBA career. Scoring a few times against NBA players in the olympics doesn't tell us much.
