Jazz Offseason Plan

So Zach Collins just broke his foot again. I'm going to go ahead and say that if DJJ opt in that Portland would trade him for Favs in a heartbeat. Id do it. DJJ is likely a guy that has eternal potential and never realizes most of it. He must have been 16 when he came in the league. He takes the Niang role... maybe some things click. We can use Udoka or find a cheap shooting 5 and play 5 out. Worst case he has value as an expiring deal at the trade deadline.

I like the logic of this trade, but I just find it hard to live with the fact that kept Favors for so long, then traded him for scraps, then overpaid to re-sign him, only to trade him to dump him within the division.

Seems plausible. They have Nasir Little waiting in the wings to overtake DJJ minutes. DJJ only played 10 minutes in 2 playoffs games so it signals they arent super about him.

It definitely makes the Jazz worse overall, but he's got one less year on his contract. I'd probably do it.

Its very much a re-arrange the deck chairs... has a slight chance of being something more than that but I'm not holding my breathe.

Yeah well to get something good for a guy you can't overpay him.

that prolly came off like I was being a dick... sorry... it is more a frustration with us giving him more than we should have and not me being sensitive to your comment.

No worries. I completely get it. I agree with you. I hated that we signed him for so much for 3 years. I knew it would end badly.
 
Did y’all see Cam Reddish come in and play some good minutes last night? Energetic defense on Middleton. 12pts 5rbs on 5/9 to go along with it. 23 minutes. Totally energized the crowd, too.

Apprently it helps to have a stable full of wing defenders.......... instead of a cupboard stocked with traditional Cs.

I know everyone says you draft the best player available... but if whatever metric/model you are using to decide BPA doesn't heavily discount guys who are centers only and can't shoot or playmake... then it is dumb AF. You'd think 5 years or so ago people would have figured this out. Whatever tier you have a traditional center in.. knock them down at least one but probably two tiers and they may be a value at that level.

Unless the can shoot and protect the rim... but those guys are super rare
