Nikola Mirotic

[NUMBERICA]

That's very conditional on a team not picking up the team option next season... I think the Jazz would rather basically trade expiring (Favors, JJ) for Mirotic if Bulls would just cut him.

My goal is to have an ocean of cap space in 2019 along with Mitchell, Gobert, Ingles, and another really nice player if they're a nice asset already. I'm just a little concerned that Mirotic isn't enough to take this team to the playoffs but would be enough to drop the pick five or more spots. Look at the standings, we're in the thick of it for a damn fine pick.

If Chicago is willing to swallow Dellavadova for a pick then maybe Favors to Milwaukee and Milwaukee sends a pick to Chicago. Milwaukee may not trade a 1st for Favors but perhaps if they dump a terrible contract.

 

[Coach Ellis]

I'd imagine they want to hold on to their pick but Favors to Cleveland, Frye and pick to Chicago and Mirotic to Utah sounds legit to me.

Not enough salary. Cavs would have to put Cedi Osman into the pot also, but it doesn’t matter which team he goes to. Would be badass for the Jazz to walk away with Mirotic and Osman, Cavs get a rim protector in Favors (on an expiring) and the Bulls get Frye’s expiring contract as well as the Cavs 1st round pick and the Jazz 2nd round pick. Gotta think everyone would be happy with that result.

We aren't trading a first for him... we may acquire a first with Favs, hood, or someone else that we would give to them.

They want a first... I want a Ferrari... we don't always get what we want.

**** it, I would give em a first

If it's a first, it better be heavily protected. I'm sure we would undo the George Hill trade if we could.

Fixed that for you.

Just wondering (since SLC Dunk is now wrongly implying that Mirotic holds a full no-trade clause): Did we ever come to a consensus here about what the no-trade-unless-team-guarantees-second-year provision in Mirotic's contract means for the Jazz's negotiating power? Which description fits best?

A) Gives Jazz strong advantage over other suitors
B) Gives Jazz modest advantage over other suitors
C) Gives Jazz no effective advantage at all

D) Gives us less advantage (relative to having real NTC) but does not disadvantage us.

In other words, C -- no effective advantage relative to other teams?

Yeah but the situation gives us some advantage over him not having any say. If a team is trying to pick him up as a good piece for playoffs now but needs to dump salary, it negates the idea of picking up his option and forcing him there.

The potential scenario in which Mirotic's veto power helps the Jazz is this:

'Team B' puts up a better offer that the Bulls want to take, but the deal is contingent on team b being able to use Mirotic as an expiring (i.e., they plan to deny their optiono this summer). Mirotic decides he does not want to play for team b. Bulls only way of trading him would be to pick up the option now, meaning team b is no longer interested.

Pretty specific case...
