If he's super gettable, than every team has passed on him. If he's not, than he's looking for something PT, money, location ect that we may or not provide. One more time...If you're saying this is Jazz specific incompetence that's preventing them from making a move like this, I really don't see it. If the Jazz could get him, then the rest of the league can also get him and are choosing not to.
So all this fluff about the Jazz being conservative or being in love with NWG as the reasons why he isn't signed....big nothing burger to me. There's something about Shaq that is preventing all teams from signing him. Not just UTA.
I also thing it's false that the Jazz cast a narrow net. In fact, they are well known for casting a wide net and holding their own minicamps for FAs and work out more players for the draft than just about anyone. This is how they found Royce, Ingles, ect. Casting a wide net. I would agree that they are focused on their own guys at this point. But that is part of the process. To find guys, you have to believe in them. Sometimes you get Royce, sometimes Niang, and sometimes NWG. The belief/concern calculation isn't that different for NWG and Ingles. The reasons why you would like or dislike NWG as an unproven player are about the same as an unproven Ingles. That not my read on things, but it's also not without reason.
