You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

Thank you Fish. Great breakdown.

I need to start using - "not worth trading" or "bad value trade" instead of "untouchable" when describing guys like O'Neale or Ingles.

And for the record, I think O'Neale is a very, very good player who is going to get better. He could maybe should be a starter as soon as next year. And at less than $2 million, he is such a bargain for us.

Ok that makes way more sense, I agree O'Neale is valuable because of his contract and Ingles does a lot of things that make him valuable to the Jazz too.
 
There's no reason to blow it up and trade away any member of the core of this group (that core being Gobert, Mitchell and Ingles). It is the pieces around that core that need to be adjusted. Adding another piece to that core this offseason is a MUST. No more growth from within talk. This current group reached it's ceiling last season.

Because winning 50 games a year doesn't mean **** when you get swept?

You don't blow up a 50 win team. That's insane. What you do is adjust, add pieces etc. You don't sell the farm.

We're 2 years into the rebuild. It's absolutely incredible where we are at. Give us a few more years and we’ll be legit contenders.

our prayer is that Davis gets out and we go all in on Jrue Holiday. As it stands, I think that's our only chance. He's the only one who can actually pave a path of victory for us to get through both the Warriors and the Rockets. He's learned how to play super well off the ball, and would make for a great tandem with Donovan. Imagine Jrue riding his left hip instead of Rubio.

Short of Gobert, Mitchell, and Favors, I think I would throw anything and everything at them. If it took Favors, I'd be fine with it too. Same with Ingles-- as long as it meant we kept O'Neale, I'd be fine with it.

I love Jrue, but I have a strong feeling that NOLA will actually improve over any of the Anthony Davis teams when they lineup with Jrue, Jaylen Brown, Tatum and Randle next year. If they got a rim protecting center, that team could evolve into something nasty.

We have 2 games left in the season and (in my opinion) we need a big blow up. Rudy will be 27 next season and we really need to maximize him before he 'may' want to leave.

So, what do you do?




Claim "our chemistry is really solid and we need another year to get healthy." Sign a 35+ year old vet, a g-leaguer, and a draft pick to call it a season?

Do you shoot for the stars and throw contracts out there for Kemba, Tobias, etc and hopefully land one?

Let's hear it.

I'd go for Kemba and open up the market to literally everyone on our team signed the following season not named donovan or rudy.
I'd call the pistons and offer favors, jae or ingles, exum, Allen, and this years pick and next years pick for Blake (should get it done). Probably sign neto again, get another backup on the cheap and fill in the rest with some shooters.

Kemba
Donovan
Ingles/jae
Blake
Rudy

That's a great starting lineup with still royce, neto, korver coming off the bench. We can create, Blake Kemba can score, gives us great spacing

Zero chance Kemba wants to live and work in SLC.

to much NBA 2k for you. That's something nasty?lmao. Umm okay whatever you say
 
And the op lineup here is okay but I'm not sure they all fit and the bench would be one of the worst in the league. Royce is a journeyman and Korver is old. That team not beating the warriors or nuggets in playoffs so it be wasting. and it's unreasonable. A dude like Kemba is never going play for utah. The culture just to much for some. GOt to know who to target. Blake would consider Utah I bet
