Golden State Warriors @ Utah Jazz -- Tue. Jan 30th 7pm MST

[enchilada_style]

Destroying this chemistry? Favors HAS TOLD THE F.O. he is NOT resigning with the Jazz and Hood didn't play... so yeah, trade them both to spread the floor to HELP the chemistry

Favs didn't say that to the FO. He even said on his Twitter that it was a false rumor.

Link?

Andy Larson reported that he DID say it

There's my link. Where's Favors?

 

[Shad]

Link? Proof that Favors said that? In fact he tweeted the other day that he never told the FO that.

Dubs got ****ed up tonight. Gottabe the units.

We switched everything to the metric system on the new court?

Curry and Durant couldn't handle the 3.048 metre high rings doe.

But having so many international players who are used to the metric system, it gave us an advantage. It's the real reason Ingles hit more triples than their entire team.

Also Andy Larsen retweeted Favors post and just said he heard it from 2 sources but that they could be wrong or they misinterpreted what they were told.

Well, I hope it's true. As long as we don't go ridiculous on it.

EDIT: It's also hard to play this one out if you're the Jazz, there is ALWAYS a possibility of walking for nothing

Agreed if you can trade, trade, but in all honesty Favs isn’t worth much on the trade market cause any team getting him he can do the same thing, walk.

This might have been Favors' last game for the Jazz in Utah. The Jazz don't play at home again until after the trade deadline. Kinda makes me sad. I hope you guys sent him off accordingly.

A few people here were saying Gobert isn't much this season. They are wrong.

 

[LifeOnaPlate]

. I just hate to see the first game they’ll rolled out be a blowout, and it may not be....but the Warriors are pretty good.

Well, it was a blowout alright. I felt the same way you did. Then this happened.

Not sure there's a trade out there for Favors that makes sense. Jazz aren't going to take back a bad contract. DL wants to have financial flexibility on the off chance he can get Jabari to sign an offer sheet. But Milwaukee undoubtedly matches and then makes other trades to avoid the tax.

I don't think that's possible. We have to renounce almost half the roster just to give the max offer sheet... and then we cannot get the players back if MKE matches.

Thank goodness Hayward stepped aside so this kid could become a star and the face of the Jazz. The nightlife thing got way overplayed, but we would never see this type of thing from Hayward, it’s hard to like Donovan anymore than I already do but he seems to never disappoint. I don’t know how we ended up with him, but I thank god every day and night we did.

Sure we can. If Bucks match, we have ~$30M. Renouncing rights doesn't mean you can't then sign those players as FA's.
But a couple of things would need to happen first before Utah could open up a max/near max spot:
1. Burks needs to be traded for an expiring.
2. Exum needs to be re-signed for less than his cap hold, which will be $15M.

Then,
3. Assume Dante gets around $10M.
4. Jazz decline options for Thabo, Udoh and Jerebko. Renounce rights to all other of their FA's
5. 7 man roster of Gobert, Mitchell, Rubio, Exum, Ingles, Bradley and O'Neal. Additional cap holds for their 1st round pick and minimum roster spots.

Jazz would have salaries ~$73M (depends on Exum's contract and where the draft pick falls).
Unlikely DL goes after Parker as a RFA, but not impossible. More likely is he tries to get a starter from a team needing to clear cap room to sign stars. Could easily facilitate Lebron/George to the Lakers or Clippers.

Neto played some key minutes, btw.

Looking forward to the day they unveil his statue outside the arena. He'll be just as important to this franchise as Stockton and Malone.

 

[Jack Strop]

Neto played some key minutes, btw.

He played 5 mins, scored 2 pts and had a +/- of -1. Neto is to Gobert what Mack was to Hayward. He doesn't suck, you could probably do better, but you keep him because he's friends with one of your star players.

 

[fishonjazz]

And Burks had some bad plays and we all made fun of him, but for the most part he played really well.

Nice to see him be able to play through those mistakes.
