2021 Free Agency

If the Jazz can't get Gay or Porter (as TJ reports they're after), what do you all think of the strategy of keeping that TPMLE dry to possibly use during buyout season to have a shot at the best available target?
I’d support. We have a good regular season team. We need to be wise with the next acquisitions..... both in terms of their medium- and long-term costs, but also in terms of fit.
Desperation time doesn’t begin until the trade deadline.
 
If for Clarkson I'd probably be quite good with it. I'd be all in on a Mitchell, Conley, Smart, Butler backcourt.

If for Ingles, I could probably live with it, though I'd also hate it on a certain level. They both are high level role players who make good teams better with the little things they do, though rather differently.

For Bogey, I just don't think that would be reasonable team-building. We still need someone, preferably in the frontcourt, who can hit threes at a high level and volume and create secondary/tertiary offense for himself.

Still not seeing a path that makes sense. Does Boston need either Ingles or Clarkson? With Fournier likely gone and with such an anemic bench to start with, maybe they do. But I don't think either matches the Celtics preferred timeline well.
I think JC makes plenty of sense for them if Fornier is gone. I mean, also if he isn’t.

We may have to see how free agency shakes out to understand what the Celts are up to. Not really sure why Smart seems to be available (unless there's still tension between him and Brown, or maybe Smart has just worn out his welcome by now).

Smart would be an interesting addition to our team. I seem to recall that he refused to work out for the Jazz prior to the 2014 draft (I could be wrong). If that’s the case, he might have a disinclination to stay in Utah, he might just be a one year rental.
 
Just this stat for the Torrey Craig fans to consider: P&R handlers scored 1.29 points per possession when going at him, one of the worst figures of defenders with any volume in the league. That's really rough.
