Jazz Offseason Plan

I honestly don't think Ingles would bring much back in a trade. He strikes me as a system guy, and I think other teams know he wouldn't play as well for them. Plus yeah, he's aging and didn't play well last year.
If finishing 2nd in 6th MOY voting is not playing well, then I'll take it!
 
Also, is there a team with caproom and a pick 10-20 that may be interested in trading it for Bojan? I’m enamored with Franz Wagner.
 
Based on the Tony Jones article this morning, the Jazz really want Conley back and are gonna make a hard push for Nic Batum.
And let the record show - if we overpay Batum, it's a move to appease/backup Rudy since Rudy and Batum are buddies and Batum can small ball center in place of Rudy.

We are going to be damn old if we give all our off-season money to Conley and Batum.

Well, my takeaway is that we are still trying to be damn old to win a title next year. Not saying I agree or disagree.

Other names mentioned in the article: Jeff Teague and Raul Neto. Looks like a “run it back” situation with some minor tuning.

I just disagree with the FO on how close we are to winning it all. I think we need more than a couple end of rotation guys that provide a bit of versatility. I think we need starter/initial rotation level changes around Conley/Mitchell/Gobert that significantly upgrade this team’s length and athleticism.

The whole offense got gummed up against length. Even bad length. Look at the Twolves games as a case in point.

So I don't know how much this has been talked about, but I am getting jumpy about retooling this team. The debate over whether it's Donovan or Rudy's team is over (at least/especially if it's the case that there is a level of rift under the surface that's not going to fully heal and may flare up), and most of the team's offensive talent are dudes that are an annual threat to fall of a cliff and whose contract statuses are or will soon be nigh.

So what is the possibility of trading Rudy to the Cavs for the #3 pick (if Evan Mobley is there, and whatever stuff has to be done to make it work)? I know Gobert can't technically be traded until October, but I don't know if that's simply a formality or not. I think Mobley pans out and would become a perfect big as he develops (though he might have some rough times in the first season or two at his weight and if he doesn't have a perfect front court mate alongside him). The Cavs might do that because they are jumpy about fielding a respectable team again (which is enough to make the playoffs in that joke of a conference).

Would the Jazz do that? Should the Jazz do that? Would the Cavs consider it (again, assuming Mobley is there at #3)?
GOBERT for 3rd pick as Mobley???
his body language and energy level raises red flags for some … His lack of bulk is the main cause for concern in terms of physical attributes Look at Rudy work has done, We're now win mode team.
We need veteran and wing depth not new young center.

I dont think we were close but I also dont think you blow up a number 1 seed. My vote is that you keep JC to keep the bench strong and you move Bogey and/or Favs to fill in another piece or two. I am sure I am in the minority but I always like Neto and would be glad to have him back as the number 3 PG.

I’m not saying you blow it up, but I at least think you swap out at least one starter and one rotation level guy.

I think you move Bogey and Favs.
