Conley Officially a Jazzman

He might be the best hope, but with the offcourt stuff I'd be fairly surprised if the Jazz drafted him (involved in a couple of lawsuits for filming and sharing sex)

No, we're cool. Utah voted Trump so they're immune to grabbing the *****.

You could say this exact thing about Favors.

You could, but you would be wrong. Plus the fact that Favors can be waived up until July 5th if we find a better option. Plus only has 1 year left after that and is much less for that 1 year.

Who is this player as good as Favors that is less?

I listed a bunch of them. You didn’t like them as much, though.

We can waive him 6/30 at 6pm right when moratorium starts. We can re-sign him first thing when moratorium lifts July 6.

No team is going to pick up his option when none of the free agents have officially signed.

Boston won't spend $17.7 million when other options are still out there. Horford might not even know his destination 48 hours into free agency.

The Lakers aren't gonna spend $17.7 million of their $24 million on a bench player. C'mon man.

The Clippers might, but why? They want big targets not some guy who is gonna be a role player for starter money.

Sacramento won't pick up Favors over keeping Cauley-Stein. $17.7 for a back up? No.

Atlanta? Why would they? Dallas? They are going for Beverley, Horford, Randle, longer term options not bandaids.

Nobody is going to pick him up before free agent dominoes fall.

Your arguments against Favs in those places are ***... you can’t just say they won’t go for him... why? Cuz it fits your idea. I could absolutely see the Celtics who just had two marquee free agents bolt pick up Favs for their center spot... they were rumored to want Capela... get favs for free on a one year deal is better. If the clips miss on the big boys they won’t go for long term salary on guys like Tobias... they will wait a year... so Favs makes a ton of sense.

The idea is delusional but sure I bet we are the only team that will offer the 12M and the front office is totally gonna risk losing him and being stuck with nothing but leftovers in the bargain bin and 17M in cap space.

They will waive him or keep him... I’d bet super large sums of money on it.
 
Is it possible to restructure and extend Conley at this juncture? Say we offer him 4 years 100 mill.

Hypothetically speaking of course.

No, the waive happens within the moratorium but can't be complete until moratorium is over. So we could waive him on July 4 with the hope that he clears on July 6 right when moratorium lifts. http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q105

Sure it's a risk, but one worth taking. I still don't see a team begging to give Favors $17.7 million for one season. That's a ridiculous amount for a 4th or 5th best starter on a short term deal.
