I read just fine. You just said being able to take on trash on bad contracts to acquire draft picks was more important to you than having a good, contributing player. That's rebuild 101.

Getting a good player worthy of their salary and probably wants to be here is not a half-measure.

Fournier isnt worth his salary and he coudlnt be a starter on the Jazz (unless they plan on moving Mitchell to the PG, which there is no indication of, at least during the span of Fournier's contract).

I don't think Hood wants to come off of the bench and I don't think the Jazz want to pay him to come off the bench. I'm sure this has been mentioned a few times already.

His wanting to come off the bench or not is inconsequential. I dont think any young NBA player wants to be a bench player and would prefer situations in which they start.

The problem is, like you said, how much do you really want to pay a non-starter when you have dreams of probably signing a stretch 4 or a max player in 2019? It's probably just unwise to invest too much money into a likely 6th man (unless you move Mitchell to PG and Hood becomes the starting 2-guard). It's an unfortunate money allocation issue. I

I think Udoh is better than Favors and I think, as a team, we'd perform better if Udoh had more minutes. I think we play Favors over him because of history and I think the idea that we play Bradley over him "because we used a first rounder on him" is equally flawed. Remember, you were on the arguing end of using Mack above Exum because you thought Mack was playing better, so I think playing Udoh over Bradley, unless Bradley takes that spot away from him, is quite reasonable.

Udoh, is not better than Favors. Not at all.
