I don't think Wizards trade Beal for a pick. Beal is a star. I'm from Philly. I don't think they trade Embiid. He is their darling right now. There would be revolts in the street if they traded Embiid. Like, if Utah traded Mitchell. Those fans suffered for years to get Embiid, to trade him now would cause riots.
They have to build around Embiid for better or worse. I'm not sure who I like better, Simmons or Embiid. I actually think they could have worked together if you built around them correctly, but Horford and Harris ain't correctly.
Not sure those guys can't do better than the backup role we have. MLE may be less than Gasol gets imo.Tony Jones keeps mentioning Derrick Favors, Aron Baynes and Marc Gasol as potential FA targets for the Jazz with the full MLE.
It’d be very interesting to get Gasoline and move Conley to the bench and let them run pick and pop. Wonder how much gas Gasoline has left in the tank.Tony Jones keeps mentioning Derrick Favors, Aron Baynes and Marc Gasol as potential FA targets for the Jazz with the full MLE.
Nobody else has Conley, though.Not sure those guys can't do better than the backup role we have. MLE may be less than Gasol gets imo.
I don' t like having Mike's friends be our backup center... it has literally never worked out.Nobody else has Conley, though.
I think Toronto puts good sized one year offers out to him and Serge to keep the band together one more year. Something like 1 year and $15-17M each. Kyle is under contract for one more year... then I think they hit the pivot button.Nobody else has Conley, though.
We could do that, then sign Neto and call it an off-season.With Favs I wonder if we could do a sign and trade sending TB, Ed, and a second round pick for Favs on a 2/20M deal. NO will operate over the cap so it won't cost them room and will get them a young backup big and a solid vet that might recapture whatever he had in a different system.
