Clarkson Likely to Get Extension

trade him today. sell high. otherwise you risk losing him in FA for nothing. he had a chance to agree to an extension, he turned it down (i don't blame him, ftr), but now you gotta trade him so you can get value for him.

granted, i would be picky - not out there giving him away. need a significant return.

Yeah, but if what EH is saying is true, his extension number is pretty far under his actual value. I dont think him turning down an extension is him saying he doesnt want to be in Utah. He just wants to be paid his value. No way in hell is he making less money than Collin Sexton.

Ya i agree. Should have traded conley and KO when their value was highest. Though I like him and would be fine keeping him im not sure he ever gets better than he is playing this season which is a throw away empty numbers kind of season.
In 3 years when we are hopefully making a deep run at a title I doubt he will be as good as he was last night and is this season.
 
I don’t think it’s an overpay either. Problem is we can’t offer him that much until he hits FA.
I think we can get pretty close to the number. If he is turning it down it is a little problematic imo.
 
It's pretty clear to me Clarkson is highly underrated by this board.

We havent given him nearly enough praise for averaging 21-5-4 on solid efficiency while in a new role.
He's been better than Poole and Jordan got the full damn bag. I think he is worth 3/60.... I am just worried a terrible team offers 3/75 or something kinda wild... if he walked at that point then fine... he doesn't have enormous trade value, but say we "matched" the offer and its more like 3/80. I think DL paying like 20% too much on every deal has me worried. I also didn't expect us to be married to JC and Sexton long term... I suppose we could get Anthony Black or Cason Wallace and that 3 guard setup might be pretty solid.

He definitely should make more than Sexton. I’m not exactly sure what fair value is. Is it 3/65? 4/80? More?
 
3/56 or 4/78 is essentially what we can offer if I’m not mistaken.
Yeah I am not sure on the rules but that sounds like the right ballpark. If he is looking for 3/60 those would be close enough. If he turns those down it isn't because he wants like 10% more... it is because he is looking for something more like what CJ McCollum got... he got 3/100M. So if a good offer comes along I would probably be inclined to take that instead of risk FA or pay JC 3/80ish.
