Offseason - Tomorrow Begins Today

Go after Jimmy Butler? Yes? No?

I think we don’t have a luxury of choosing a high level player like butler. If we have a chance, we have to sign him no matter what. It will be between staying put and lose again vs gamble and try to win. We just need to go for it

I've said this a couple of times before here but I just don't think the Jazz' system benefits Ricky all that much. It puts him in a lot of situations which magnify his weaknesses (e.g. shooting, finishing at the rim although to his credit he was pretty good at the rim in this series) and doesn't really allow him to maximise his strengths as much.

Exum I think benefits the Jazz more in a perfect world because his ability to get to the rim in 1 dribble anytime he wants without being a reliable outside threat just opens up so many things for the Jazz, but Rubio is definitely the steadier presence in reality.

I can agree with that. My issues are: Dante can't stay healthy. And Ricky has a slightly better 3%. That, and with each injury, Dante's athleticism is going to slip quicker. Ricky relies on other things.

He's a diva and a bit of a problem in the locker room. I don't think Philly really wants to max him. If we could stand him, he'd be the right fit--a 20-pt scorer (who can go for 35) and an intense defender. In other words, he's a clear upgrade from Jae Crowder.
 
so... we will make a move on the draft night? hope we can trade for holiday. I can still dream
