No Extension for Walker Kessler?

Just one game (and vs the freaking Nets) but Kalkbrenner looked good for the Hornets. Another player the Jazz want to perform very well so the Hornets dont go big money Big hunting.
 
If Walker has made a leap, there’s no mental gymnastics that will make me think we did the right thing. Really the only way we did the right thing is if he has a worse season than last year, and even then we didn’t really do the right thing. The right thing would have been to trade him if we saw it coming.
 
Still not sure why Jazz seem to want to get rid of Kessler
He fits the timeline
Get younger, get bigger, get better
Lauri maybe is the one to trade now that all the young guys are looking very good

Please, if the Jazz wanted to "get rid" of him, he would be traded. Just because there have been rumors of Jazz exploring trade options doesnt mean they want to trade him.
 
I really feel like most of JFC has brainrot when it comes to the Walker situation.

Walker will have a low cap hold. The Jazz will pay him. They can make moves before that to strengthen the team with the cap-space. The Jazz seem to be further along than national media and the fanbase expected.

Correct, we can go over the cap to extend him if needed as well.

OK This makes sense
But isn't JFC ground zero for Jazz brainrot? :) :mad: :) :mad:
 
Idk, I think it would be good to pay a guy right before a breakout season and not create a contentious relationship. I prefer that over having a little bit more cap space, especially because we could structure a contract that gives us relief in the future. If that's brainrot, I have brainrot.

The relationship hasn’t been the best from the start. I’m also fine using this season as confirmation that he’s worth the extension money.

Please give me evidence, any kind, of what Walker was willing to take.
 
People heard the Jazz/Walker were done negotiating and they freaked out. Maybe Walker/Agent just really bet on themselves and Utah was fine with Walker going into the season with extra motivation to be the best he can be.

Just feel like most people here are under this false impression that Walker would have taken 25 million per year. I dont know that he wouldnt, but I have no reason to believe he would given the free agent market and the lack of high level centers available in it.
