Could the Jazz Milk Washington if The Ace Saga Sours?

But it would help our tank for AJ. So it might actually benefit the jazz.
Would be way more costly for ace

My guess is that Ace has plenty of ways to make money over the next 12 months if it comes down to that. At 18 what he makes the next few years is not the issue.

Yep I agree with you. And it still would be more costly for Ace than the jazz. Ryan will be fine financially as well if Ace doesn't play.
 
I wish if a player decided to not report for an entire year and re-enter the draft, every team made it clear that they weren’t going to draft that player. That would end this threat immediately. The entire integrity of the draft is contingent on players playing for the teams they’re drafted by. If players can now dictate who can draft them, then the entire draft collapses.

I understand this type of stuff has happened in the past. Of course players have preferences for big markets and warm climates. But I’ve never heard of a guy legitimately considering sitting out a year and re-entering the draft. If this happens, the NBA needs to rethink the entire process. Otherwise, I’m not sure how small markets dig themselves out of these holes.

I’m also not sure the nba can afford this type of stunt. Aren’t tv ratings tanking across the board? Doubt this will help the NBA’s reputation.
Easy fix is that NBA steps in right now and puts an end to this.

Either report and sign on the dotted line or you dont get to enter the NBA ever again.

Exactly.

Don’t like where you were drafted? That sucks. Once your rookie deal has expired, go out and find the team you want. But until then? Play with the Jazz or don’t play in the NBA. Enjoy China or something.

While I agree with the sentiment here, once his rookie deal has expired he is a restricted free agent and still can't find the team he wants.
 
This thread is a blast. We've got a drug dealer, a fake agent, a loopy father, a young kid who has no clue, etc. And the Jazz fans sweating. Slow down, folks. The smoke will clear, and the kid will play for the Jazz. Will he live up to the hype? We'll have to wait and see.
With all due respect, nobody knows if he’ll even show up.
 
What’s funny to me is how cheap airline tickets are and how much ****ing money even rookies make. Don’t like utah? That’s fine. For 3 years you can afford private jets every other day to get you to Vegas, Los angles, and Miami so you can live it up.

Much like teachers and policing, when politicians try to play hard ball, the issue is the union.
