Nemanja Bjelica

I think the # and the fact that we didn't do this deal even though there was some mutual interest (supposedly)... leads me to believe they are letting Jonas go and signing Niang.

I mean they could probably have cut Jonas... given Bjelica another $1M or so and gotten a second non-guaranteed second year... I think Bjelica is better than Jonas, but I think at very least they are similar levels of player and to turnover that spot and get a second year NG would have value.
 


So Philly likely got him for around the same amount we're paying Jerebko.
 
Yeah, well the part that makes no sense is the insanity test..... keep doing the same thing over and over in hopes of a better result.... Obviously something besides a draft pick needs to change or we don't have a prayer. It seems that the FO is way too frightened to even make a simple upgrade like Namanja....how is that going to play out with our key players that really wanted him?? Can't sit back and look a gift horse in the mouth and expect to make it past the second round of playoffs. It is cool to show restraint but not to the point of falling completely asleep! Are we afraid to possibly hurt some current roster players feelings if one has to walk? We look like wusses that are under playing on some improrving

Jazzster? Really?
 
Everyone assumes we didn't talk with him... maybe we did and were really honest... like we don't think you will be in the rotation and he chose Philly instead. I think Philly is loading up depth pieces in case they make a Kawhi trade. If they move Saric/Covington they will have playing time available... if not then he rides the bench.

Don’t forget they lost Belinelli and illy who were both playing. They will really be able to use him, I think he’ll do well there regardless of if they make a trade or not
 
According to Woj looks like Jelly is jumping ship and playing in Europe .

Apparently he never signed his contract with Philly.

I wonder if that's why The Jazz didn't sign him or he's leaving because The Jazz didn't sign him.

Either way looks like he burned his NBA bridge .
