Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

Off subject a bit, but the way Memphis was humiliated, is there a chance Ja could be made available or he become disgruntled and ask out over the next year. Obviously no shot this off season. But I could see some traction next year. Would we want him. Him and Wemby together would be formidable

I don't want him, but there are a ton of high schools around here to get some good teenage bullying in.

Temetrius Jamal Morant extracts pistols, levels them, and waives them about in an ill considered manner. This endangers the lives of strippers in his vicinity. I fear that Javier Peña from Narcos may have to rescue these ladies of ill repute, for he has demonstrated excellence in this endeavor.
 
That’s too much. Way overpaying for him. Mikal Bridges would be worth a conversation though. Would be interested in seeing what the price tag for him would be.
Same.

MB would be a dude I’d send a package for that would look like an overpay at first but I think he would be incredible on this team.

We would still have assets beyond that too. MB, Lauri, Kessler is a hell of a trio.

Memphis offered four firsts and were turned down. No clue how valuable the picks offered or which ones were though.

Just arm the strippers to the teeth. Problem solved.
 
Dillon Brooks is apparently not going back to Memphis, anyone want him?

Just kidding, hopefully nobody signs him and he has to go overseas

Been thinking about starting a thread (/poll) about this: under what circumstance would you want Dillon Brooks to sign?

Part of me would find it hard to say no to a vet minimum deal, the other part is just nah.

It's going to be an unpopular opinion, but a humbled Brooks could potentially be an amazing addition.

You just need to teach him to play more within himself. He has some of the best screen navigation in the NBA.
 
Brooks is probably the last player in the entire NBA I would want on the Jazz. Besides being the most unlikeable guy in the league, he's honestly just not that good.

There's people on this forum that want to bring back Exum.... over Dillion Brooks. Those are the people you should be worried about
 
The more I think about it, the more I'm a believer in Cam Whitmore. He has really good shooting numbers, and his physical profile is REALLY intriguing (compact: not the tallest, but long, fast, AND strong). Plays with his head down, but he's strong enough to bully AND fast enough to beat dudes off the dribble. Plays hard.

This team really needs playmaking off the bounce and I don't think you can plan on him being a great creator for others, but creating for oneself does count.
This could be a much longer post, but I'll cut to the chase: I think the Jazz should try to package Walker (try in the sense that he's one of their premier assets for teams that value current and future value), Ochai, and the picks this year to get both Whitmore and Hendricks. Then sign Naz Reid to absorb a lot of the punishment at C (while also being able to spread the floor).

Being that Whitmore, Hendricks, and Lauri are as switchable as they are, they can be the 3-5 in a switchy, stretchy, athletic 5-out lineup or the 2-4 in a more-bruising lineup.
