Conley Officially a Jazzman

[MVP]

Funny how we're forgetting Rudy in all this.

Rudy is not a difference maker in today's NBA unless he learns how to shoot and develops any kind of post game.

If conley can stay healthy this is a huge power move.

Big question for me: can conley be healthy? Can everyone stay healthy?

Jazz looking good.

Conley is the ultimate snyder wet dream. This is his guy through and through.

How comfortable are we with Niang? Dude showed up at the end of the season.

I like him

My guess is Memphis wasn't willing to pull the trigger at that time.

They're giving up an all-star caliber PG for very little, so it makes sense that they would have assumed at the time that they could get more for him.

Agreed. Add to it that Memphis' demands were being called unreasonable by other teams, including Indiana. I suspect it's part of the reason their GM was fired.

if conley has a good year, he will absolutely opt out as he should to go get one more overall big end of career payday like horford is doing. he'll get a 3-4 year deal at 25-30M per season. that's the scary part of this trade.

Gobert spaces the floor more than anyone on our team.

How did that work against Houston in playoffs?

I heard Exum gained 15 lbs. of muscle since his injury.

That's ironic since I've gained about 15 lbs of fat since his injury.

Most importantly, Utah announcing this trade 2 and a half weeks before it can become official leads me believe they plan on making additional deals up through free agency - much like NJ trading Crabbe and AD to LAL.

I wouldn't be surprised if Exum and Favors are gone next in an effort to position themselves into FA pickup.

I think Exum would be gone in the Conley deal if we wanted to get rid of him. He was the hold up last year. But maybe we use him and/or favors as part of another big trade.

Why does Snell not fit what Utah needs?

 

[MVP]

Don;t get me wrong people, I love Conley on the Jazz. But we traded wrong pieces and at wrong time. Had we dealt Exum, Rubio and a pick or two at trade deadline we would be much better.

 

[gandalfe]

It's weird that I never hear about other teams desire for favors.
I feel like we have dangled him every deadline for years and yet never hear about any takers for him.

He is our little secret

Word on the street is LA is hot for him.

How did that work against Houston in playoffs?

Our spacing? Great. Our ability to hit open shots? Terrible. But that had nothing to do with Favors and Gobert playing together. That was cold shooting. We need our players to hit wide open shots. Ingles, Rubio, Mitchell, Crowder all sucked at that. Hopefully we get a couple more good shooters and Mitchell and Ingles shoot better next year in the playoffs.
