He's not eligible for a supermax.

For anyone who still wants to grasp to the .1% chance Harris comes here. Maybe the Jazz at least try to hail mary this or something lol

I think they both from NY... not sure that’s a Jazz thing.

Phoenix has been profoundly stupid — maybe we should try to see if we can steal anyone good from there?

Quote or it didn't happen. I think some media people said Utah might be the front runner if he didn't stay in Philly. But I think that was speculated based on Jazz offering max and his friendship with Donovan. I don't ever recall seeing a quote by him or even someone claiming he had said anything to that effect.

From Tony Jones' Q&A on The Athletic

Just so I can sleep at night and not have too much FOMO. If this trade had never happened, what would you have said the Jazz’s percentage odds were at landing D’Angelo Russel? Or Harris?
Very good for Harris. I would go far enough to say the Jazz were frontrunners for him. Less for Russell. I think the Pacers lead there. But the Jazz would have had a nice chance for him as well

So was the jazz the leader for Harris?
I think so

If grabbing Harris costs Favors and Exum, I’m pretty sure that’s a non-starter for the FO.

I’m not so sure. From what I’ve read they value Favors and Exum but if the right deal cane along...of anyone of the right deal it’s Harris.

I think the only thing that could make a S&T feasible is Philly wanting to save face for all the assets they traded to rent Harris. But I think they’d want real assets, like draft picks, in return, and not Dante Exum — they already had to dump Fultz.

Possibly they would want more but they would not have any negotiation power in this. Tobias Harris would be telling them I am not returning and would like to go to the Jazz. Will you facilitate a sign and trade and get assets or lose me for nothing?

Sign and trades rarely give up much. Maybe the Jazz give them a 2nd round pick for their "trouble."

Tony posted something about it a few days ago. Then the ringer podcast was talking about it after the Conley trade.

Thanks. I knew he posted something about it.

Only way to get Harris is trade Joe, waive Favs, trade Exum, then you have enough space.

If we really want him we should hope he signs with Philly and Jimmy does too.

Meanwhile we sign 3 and D types with the cap space we clear by trading or waiving Favs... then at the trade deadline when they need depth pieces they trade him for those 3 and D types and Exum (if we can resurrect him long enough) and maybe one other small salary plus a pick or something.

 

[nateboz]

Plus the Conley deal won't go down till July 6th. There will be possibilities to add to the trade and even possibly bring in more players.

They could go to other teams. But I do think 76ers would like Favors. They are over the cap and he is better than anyone else they could sign in FA assuming Tobias does not want to go there and wants a trade to the Jazz. I also think they wouldnt mind taking a chance on Exum as their backup to his friend Simmons.

I hope this happens. Ben and Dante on the same team wow. Dante just needs to get his jumper better and I can see a starting lineup with Ben and Dante as the starters. Butler as the 3. That team with the speed and athleticism would be incredible to watch. They would absolutely destroy teams defensively as well. Yes do that Dante get that jumper going and it's all over
