Ugh, no. Why would we do this? Quickley is not that good and not worth giving up Clarkson let alone Clarkson and a pick while also taking on Fournier, unless it’s just to acquire his crap salary for a trade at the deadline.

KqWIN is Quickley’s biggest fan.

We also could clear just enough space to assume Monte Morris or Delon Wright from Wiz. Price is reportedly 1 or 2 seconds... which is a no brainer to me.

Yep! I expect to see a trade including either JC or Sexton or both on the horizon to clear up some backcourt minutes. How can we bring Dunn back otherwise? Dunn may be our most efficient point guard and it’s a shame if we let him walk.
Last night I read something that absolutely blew my mind. If Clarkson had opted out and signed elsewhere, or ends up getting moved in a trade, Walker Freakin’ Kessler would then become the longest tenured Jazz man. That is utterly astonishing.
In my last post I hailed Ainge’s skills for roster construction and asset acquisition but I forgot to mention possibly the biggest factor in turning this franchise around so quickly: Will Hardy.
Not only does he seem rock solid on the X’s and O’s front, it’s unbelievable how quickly he can get EVERYBODY to buy in- from the 15th man on your roster to a grizzled vet like Conley. He also got a team that had just went through a damn near 90% roster turn over and got them to gel at an astonishing rate. Then at the trade deadline we all thought “well that’s it, we’re finally tanking the rest of the season” and Hardy continued to win. I still can’t quite figure out how.
I like Quin. I was a little offended when he basically quit on the franchise but I bear him no ill will and I think he did quite a good job during his Jazz tenure. That being said, when he decided to walk, he might have been doing the Jazz the ultimate solid. Ainge immediately zeroed in on the right guy and I wouldn’t be stunned at all to see him win multiple rings- hopefully with us!!

We don’t need to clear any space to absorb either of them if that’s where we’re going.
I feel like THT straight across works great for everyone. He’s a real treat on a tanking team and has upside.
Nah.
THT … shm..
