2020 Free Agency Thread

I kinda like it, Faves already knows the system and is still very serviceable. JC had most of last season to get adjusted, bring back a more comfortable Conley and Bojan and we are way better than last year.
 
I do not understand why we brought Favors back for three years after drafting Udoka. So he is going to sit behind Rudy and Favors for 3 years. Now after signing Favors and Clarkson we have no money for an athletic wing. That is all the front office talked about was to get more athletic wings who would wreck spacing? Now we have three centers and Morgan can play their with a small ball lineup.

Smh. Terrible draft and terrible free agency. Four years is too many for JC. Full MLE too much for favors.

I disagree with what Plumlee and Leonard got. Also if Gobert gets injured are you gonna play dok for 48 min? I wanted the MLE to go to a defensive wing personally but the bar got set high with the Leonard and plumlee signing.

Houston's gone. Golden State's gone. Maybe the Jazz think this can work.

The teams they need to beat have bigs -- Denver, Portland, LAL...

The Lakers, Clippers, Nuggets, and Mavericks are not. The Jazz have not done one single thing to address their inability to guard on the perimeter or stretch 5s.
 
Almost wonder whether there's a trade incoming. Not expecting, but would make some sense to avoid the hardcap.

Going back to playing two centers that can't dribble, pass, or spread the floor would really be the pies de resistance. A chef's kiss for the ages.

They played very well together when we had 3 shooters. They only struggled when paired with Rubio. I don't expect them to okay together a ton but at least I'm good matchups or if it's working at the end of the game. You put way too much on shooting. Favors passes decent. They both do tons of things well.

Nope... between JCs money and MLE we will be too close to the hard cap I think...

Don't think so.

6 guaranteed players + Azubuike and Hughes brought salaries to about $106.5 mil.

If Favs and JC are getting max raises, they'd combine for about $20.2 mil in 20/21.

LT is at 132.6 mil, apron is at $138.9 mil.

So the Jazz have plenty of space under the apron for their minimum/returning players and the BAE. Again, depending on how the Favs and JC contracts are structured (and assuming the Jazz are willing to dip their toe into the LT for the right player).

What league have you been watching the last decade? Shooting IS basketball, dude.
