Washed Players... It’s Time To Buy Low and Pray

Listened to Gordon Chiesa's segment on 1280 from yesterday. They asked him what the Jazz need to be looking for this offseason and it's the exact same player archetype's we lowly forum mouthbreathers have been saying for years. Long, athletic though guys who can defend or guys who can go get you a bucket. Brought up the likes of Torrey Craig, Cam Payne & Crowder and said those are the types of players you need on your roster.
He also mentioned Quincy Acy as a big tough defender who's been on some horrid teams so he gets looked over a lot of the time.

Never heard of Quincy Acy, but I'm going to go ahead and say that this guy can't make it. The only reason being that he's from Baylor, and DL would have homered this guy talent or not. His stats don't look bad, but I would have no idea what to make of DL not giving it a go.
 
Ntilikina would be a good signing for a few reasons. Not much to lose giving him a shot if he comes cheap. Don could kickstart his career.

I wouldn't mind him playing pure point. I also would like to see Giles at PF as he plays defense and can shoot. Either would be cheap. I'm being realistic as I want some potential talent we can fill out the roster with who can likely contribute. I also really, really like Green but he wouldn't be as cheap though I don't see him getting a crazy contract either.
 
Why not Trevor Ariza?

I think he can come back a la Batum if we can't get batum. Apparently we have two vet min exceptions to go along with the MLE.

My offseason dream is any combination of 2 of the following players using the MLE and 2 vet min exceptions :

OPJ
Ariza
Batum
Torrey Craig
Rudy Gay (pick any 2 from the list above)

plus ...a vet backup point guard

And the best versatile 6'10" athletic draft pick. Replace any 4 of the bottom 5 players. That gives us the best chance at a deeper playoff run.
 
Darius Miller always seemed like a guy who should have higher value than he actually does. Good shooter, big, and I remember PKM called him the most athletic UK player.
 
JZ heard it was time to buy Lowe.

god, no. Ariza has been washed for years. He’s 36 years old.

Batum is 32.
