franklin's "Corbin boner" is a strap-on that he likes to smack you in the face with. Fish's "hard on" is real and pitiful.
Burks has the most tradable contract
What has DL done to improve the quality of this team or bring in value?
Fair deal. He has skills virtually no any other NBA player has. Also it's like $8/year of last season, which means he is getting paid like a role player while he will likely be the top scorer of the team, starting from this season already. You can trade his contract when you want. Favors has a tradable contract too but Hayward does not.
:^OGot rid of Corbin.
IAWTPIts nice having players that want to play in Utah. Favors and Burks both seem to really like it here and that's something I like as a fan. Its a good deal for Burks and a good deal for us IMO. Burks would've gotten more money had he gone into RFA but I think he just wanted to get a good deal for himself so he can stay in Utah and focus on basketball.
The picture of him smiling while signing the contract is gold, I love it

I think it's a great deal for both sides. 10.5 per seems like a lot, but salaries are going to go up fast if the salary cap goes up like it's expected to. We now have our 3 main players (other than burke, not going to add Kanter yet) at 35 million per year. That leaves over 40 million per year before getting into the luxury tax this year, and will almost certainly be more than that in 3-4 years.
I'll give Quin's little ring around the rosy system a little more time, but it ultimately may be holding Alec (and our winning %) back.
