He also mentioned he doesn't think George Hill will be renegotiated, which makes me really sad.

So... Solomon Hill for 12-13 Mill per? Anyone excited about that?

No.

Don't want luol dung either

He will get it...

Just wait until this place melts with Marvin Williams gets $15+ M per year.

Guys the money coming in is unprecedented to come in all at once. The FA crop is really shallow. Add it all up and there will be some incredibly bad decisions.

In a vacuum yes... when you consider the expenses coming next year it likely means one of AB, Hill, or Favs won't be returning.

I'm just not convinced on him... he was good the last 30 games of the year and the playoffs. Before that Bird didn't feel like he was worth one year $2M... not that he is perfect.

Definitely. I'm not saying anything about how much I like him or think he's worth, just putting the numbers in perspective since people don't seem to understand the conversion.

Andy Larsen: Another player I’ve heard from sources about the Jazz being interested in come free agency: Luol Deng.

The Utah Jazz have expressed interest in acquiring Indiana forward Solomon Hill once the free agency period opens on Friday at midnight, The Salt Lake Tribune has learned.

1 hour ago – via Salt Lake Tribune

Multiple league sources say the interest is mutual between the Hill and the Jazz. But that doesn’t mean there wouldn’t be obstacles for Utah in its potential pursuit. The market for Hill is “fertile,” according to one source, because he is young and can play three positions — power forward, small forward and shooting guard — and that a number of teams plan to chase him once July 1 hits.

Also, Hill won’t come cheap. The Tribune has learned that the former Arizona star is seeking anywhere between $9 and $13 million a year, and there are multiple teams willing to meet that number. The money isn’t much of a hurdle for the Jazz, though, as they are far under the salary cap floor.

Is Shonn Miller any good. What's his style of play?

I don't disagree but people making these decisions are suppose to be smarter than this. Just because you have money doesn't mean you have to spend it. Just for the record, not a fan of Solomon Hill. If this is the FAs we are going after then I rather pass and just go with the young guys another year.

The Jazz already have a full roster so just play Ingles in spot minutes the rest of the SGs/SFs can fill in Hill and Exum can play the 2 so Hood, Hayward and Burks can play the SF. Heck let Quincy Ford play 6 minutes at SF.

Got it... If he is just meh I do think we could probably still move him depending on the years.

Collectively they are smart but it only takes one dude trying to save his job falling in love with someone to get crazy money out there.

If Hill and Favors won't be extended we may be forced into something like this just to hit the floor. If it's one year then I don't care much... next year we have to start making decisions on guys... the following year gets real tricky.
