LOL. Okay guys....

Simmons is a SF and we don't have a starter right now. If we get Simmons at $10, then we have an option better than making Hood go to SF when he's not big enough yet. Sefolosha is a bench guy. Joe Johnson should be too. I love Mitchell, but there is no reason to force him in this season. If he's that good, he's going to take Hood's spot not a SF.

Simmons can guard 1 through 4. He's an asset. And at $10 per year, he's a steal.

1st Unit
Rubio
Hood
Simmons/Jingles
Favors
Gobert

2nd Unit
Exum
Mitchell
Jingles/Simmons
Johnson
Udoh

Depth - Bradley, Sefolosha, Jerekbo, Burks, Neto

Bolomboy waived

The Ingles disrespect found in this post should be a ban worthy offense

Nah, this is just a hunch. If we want to make our team better, we add him.

You have to admit - waiving Diaw two days before his deadline AND a few hours after Simmons became an unrestricted free agent seems like more than a coincidence. Why rush the Diaw decision?

So Diaw can find a new home asap

Uhh, Jazz fans got mad for Hayward dragging out an obvious decision but Jazz should take as long as possible to waive Diaw?

Diaw is an asset that expires in a few days. HAYWARD said he would make his decision on a certain day. Completely different.

The Jazz waived Diaw two days early for one of two reasons:

#1 - we wanted the money to make a run at a free agent
#2 - we are staying put

If there was a trade possibility out there, it is illogical to dump a valuable trade asset like a non-guaranteed. You wait until the deadline and waive.
 
I think Hood will start at SF and the SG starter is up for grabs. Ex, Burks, and maybe even DM. I hope Jingles comes off the bench and add me to the list of those that think we paid too much for him. Still not seeing it. The only reason why we paid what we did is because of GH. I really like Jingles and a lot of what he does but I hope we have a better starter.

The last sentence is actually the reason they waived him. No trade possibility out there.

I thought Jingles showed over the 2nd half of the season that he had the chops to be a quality NBA starter. I expect him to get first shot at the job.

Gobert, Favors, Jingles, Hood and Rubio will get first crack at it.

Udoh, Jerebko, Joe Jesus, Sefalosha, Mitchell, Burks, Exum and Neto will round out the best bench in the league. Bradley, Bolomboy, Wallace and one more will play for the Stars.

Not really. Its still delaying an obvious decision that waste the other party's time.
