2015-2016 F/A build the bench wish list

Posted this in another thread but

For realistic FAs. Not including the often talked-about Millsap/Wes Matthews/Middleton/Danny Green/Caroll etc etc

Main ones
I'd throw an offer sheet at Cory Joseph. I think he can be a 15/4/5ish guy.

I'd also throw an offer sheet at Jae Crowder. He's been great in Boston and he can be like Draymond lite.

Alexis Ajinca as a third big.

Dorrell Wright as a cheap bench dude who can shoot.

Reggie Evans as a cheap 4th big. Instant fan favorite, seems like a cool dude, experienced, tough as nails, crashes the boards. Also, I think it'd be entertaining as hell and hilarious seeing him and Booker on the court at the same time.

Extras
Brandon Bass, Amir Johnson (I like him if he can stay healthy), Kosta Koufos, Omri Casspi (energy guy), Luke Babbit (cheap stretch 4, not sure how his defense is), Luc Mbah a Moute (good defender, not a good shooter), Cole Aldrich (cheap 4th big who I think can actually be decent with some minutes)

Reggie Evans though?? This ain't the 2010 or even 2011-2012 version of Evans.

Pgs-
Gary Neal - shooting, defense, vet, leadership and ex spur. Great mentor for Dante
Matthew Dellevedova - Shooting and just fun to watch not to mention australian
JJ Barea - Would be a great bench player
Nick Calathes - Shooter who would be a great bench player
Jimmer Fredette - Shooting and you could do a lot worse for a 3rd PG but wqith bryce cotton probably wont happen but what can i say i am a homer
Alexey Shved - Combo guard would be a great addition to the bench and would play well with Burks. Decent passer and good shooter

Wings -
Iman Shumpert - 3 and D would be a nice peice if the Jazz do not draft a wing. I question his mental make up but maybe he might work here with the culture
Corey Brewer - 3 and D who has been playing well this year.
KJ McDaniels- could be a 3 and D steal if he can learn to be consistent with his shot. Plays with a lot of passion.
John Jenkins - deadly shooter that has been buried on ATLs bench

Pfs -
Mirza teletovic - Shooting and he can play the 3 in a pinch. He is a very good shooter that will give the Jazz and QS the stretch 4 they need. Brooklyn will have a hard time matching most offers.
Thad Young - Would be a great 3rd big coule play with Gobert and or Favors when either needs a rest. Him and Burks could hold down the second unit.
Kyle O'Quinn - Its the last name doe. He would be a decent back up could play some 5 also

Centers -
Alexis Ajinca - as a 3rd center on the roster the Jazz could do a lot less and he is from france also. Rudy is what he was suppose to become maybe QS can make him a late bloomer
Jason Smith - If tomic doesnt come over he would be a good get as a back up

Not a bad list but quite a few are restricted, but if Jazz really wants one of them see if their team will match.
 
Yeah, at this point I want to concentrate on Tomic first, then Carroll, then go bargain shopping if none of that pans out. I have no interest in the Alexey Shveds of the world. I think most of these backup pg options would be performing just as bad if not worse than Burke if placed in the same situation. Adding bench scoring with Tomic and a Healthy Burks or/and Hood if we get Carroll would improve Trey significantly. Getting Carroll might make us have to choose between Jingles and Millsap though which brings me sadness. . .
 
he would be my first call this summer. every team needs shooting and Brooklyn cant match

After all the disappointment I have lived through, I would hate to see Shved here. I believed in you Shved and I hyped you hard.

D'Angelo Russell, Dante Exum
Rodney Hood, Alec Burks, Big Joe
Gordon Hayward, Anthony Morrow, Lilsap
AL Jefferson, Mirza Teletovic
Rudy Gobert, Derrick Favors

Thats a Top 3 in the NBA team. If we could get AL motvated, it would be the best.

A little risky with a person with a history of blood clots. Google Brian Vickers.

good news is with proper treatment and working back into shape an athlete can get back to full exercise. this is the first and was caught early. I wouldn't worry
