What on earth are you talking about.

Another way to look at it, the Jazz could have waited out two more picks and sought to acquire Oni as an undrafted free agent. The Jazz could have just called Oni's agent and offered a $2M guaranteed deal 5 minutes after the draft ended. Instead they felt it was worth paying $2M to Golden State to make sure they secured his rights at #58. Seems like they want him.

With the Conley deal, I don't think they can offer Oni too much more than the minimum.

random question most won't know the answer to: does the 3 mil that the jazz spent on buying picks go against the cap?

Nope. But they can only spend $5 million on picks and in trades per calendar year.

I'm assuming you don't see the irony of it either, do you?

Correct, so they had money to spend before the year was over.

 

[cctrackstar]

that's why they didn't throw the 2 mil at oni then, cause this way it doesn't hit the cap

No, but they can guarantee it. . .

I think if Rudy, Mitchell and Conley's work ethics rub off on oni he could be a steal. If he stays the way he is he will never get off the stars

They’re making the roster. Question is if they’ll be on a non guaranteed contract, guaranteed contract or a two-way contract. There’s no way the team paid that much to acquire them without planning to keep them - at least for one season.

The Jazz could have just called Oni's agent and offered a $2M guaranteed deal 5 minutes after the draft ended.

Another way to look at it is that Lindsey could have easily sold #53. There seemed to be a lot of buyers out there. Could have easily said Jazz were going to look at vet minimum guys to fill the roster.

I think all the draft picks get 2-yr deals with the 2nd being a team option. Guess it depends on how many ring chasers Utah attracts. I like all three. Guess I'm easy to please. Lindsey seems to be trying a new tactic: drafting players who already have a few years of college experience. Perhaps less upside, but teams, IMO, are undervaluing experience by looking to hit home runs with one-and-dones. Four years of college worked for a lot of all-time greats. On the other hand, you have teams having to make decisions on re-upping players without really knowing who they are (like a Wiggins, Exum, etc.). Maybe there's something to be said for getting players who require less development - less upside, but a lot less risk at the 3/4 yr. mark.

God made Exum expendable.

Harsh. Possibly true, but truly harsh.
