    Jazz trade for John Collins

    How is this high risk? Next season Collins' salary will be around 1/6th of the salary cap. We still have every opportunity to R&E Lauri next off season and at the following trade deadline, we have matching salary, young players and a lot of picks to trade for a real difference maker.

    Jazz draft Brice Sensabaugh at 28

    We really don`t do nicknames over here. I know I am being an old fart, the concept is just too foreign for me to really comprehend, I guess.

    Jazz draft Brice Sensabaugh at 28

    What is it with American culture that makes you want to idolize deranged mass murderers with these pop star-nicks and even create related nicks for athletes?

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    The salary fluor is why I can see us giving Clarkson a big stort term deal. Something like 2/50 with the 2nd year being a team option would get us closer to the floor, make him happy and give us salary matching for the next good player who wants to be traded.

    Why Lauri Will Be Here a While - Renegotiate and Extend

    We have so much cap space for 2024/25 that we could easily fit in another max if we wanted. I could actually see us giving Clarkson a huge short term contract just to have him as matching salary. 2/$50 with only the first year being fully guaranteed and maybe $5 million guaranteed for the second...

    Why Lauri Will Be Here a While - Renegotiate and Extend

    That only applies to normal extensions where you under the new CBA can increase the salary by 40%. With an R&E you can go up to the player's maximum if you have the cap space for it.

    Why Lauri Will Be Here a While - Renegotiate and Extend

    I`ve been thinking about this for a few days and tried crunching some numbers. Next season`s salary cap is projected to be $134 million. Projections for future years vary wildly, but with the new cap smoothing regulations in the CBA, I use fixed 10% raises for these calculations. If Lauri plays...

    Jared Butler WTF?

    What? Where is his leverage for this? It should be a for year Hinkie special with him being able to hit RFA after his 3rd year.

    Favors to OKC in works (Update: Traded)

    When you trade a player, I think the rule is that you either have to wait one year or until his current deal expires until you can re-sign him. The league made this rule when Zydrunas Ilgauskas was traded from the Cavs, bought out and re-signed with the Cavs in a matter of a couple of weeks IIRC.

    Dante Exums new book coming soon - "50/7 easiest way to heaven"

    Exum played a lot more games than Fultz did on his rookie deal. Fultz has shown very little and will have made way more than Exum when his current deal is done.

    Phoenix Suns watch

    The two wins against the Spurs were more important than they mught seem. The Suns close out the season with two games in San Antonio. Us beating them twice and the Pelicans winning means that the Pels now have a shot at beating out the Spurs from the play on. The chances of the Spurs having to...

    Conley wants to resign. “Utah’s got me.”

    A four year deal with partial guarantees for the last year is the way to go, IMO. If you start him at $12 million on an ascending contract, you can guarantee 6 out of 15 million for year for to give him $45 million guaranteed. That would leave just over 9 million unguarnteed for the last season...

    Rudy Gobert 5 years, $205M

    For a player with 7+ years in the NBA, 30. Anything over this is regarded as a super max. As long as Rudy signs a deal that is $1 over 30%, it is regarded as a super max.

    Rudy Gobert 5 years, $205M

    Nah. It has to start over 30% to be a super max, but could theoretically decline by as muh as 8% each year. As long as the deal starts at over 30% of the cap, it is a super max deal. We`ll see in the next few days what the details are. Rudy and his agent get this day to tell the world that...

    Guys you were wrong about

    Funny that his two only NBA starts came for us. Didn`t he have a huge game against LeBron where they hugged it out afterwards?
