What's new

Following potential 2013 draftees

Jazz have I think around $26+ mil in contracts for next year (Burks, Evans, Marvin, Favors, Kanter, Gordon, Murphy).

Add Marion contract = $36M.
+ Draft picks 13(1.65M), 14(1.57M), 21(1.1M), 46(?) = we'll say 5M = 41M.

That's 12 players already.

The salary floor is around 50M, right? Jazz spend 9M more to reach the salary floor. (sign DMC, maybe another PG (Mo?), + another player?)

Yeah, the Jazz can take Marion.

The Jazz would be stupid to do anything but try to get to the salary floor by acquiring assets from teams looking to get cap relief for one reason or another. Especially if it's a contract that expires after next year.

BTW, AL S/T FOR BEN GORDON AND...???
!!!
 
I'm starting to drink the Larkin kool aid. Wouldn't mind seeing him at 21 at all, especially if Schroeder/McCollum are off the board. Heck, I probably wouldn't object to taking 2 PGs with both picks either, though I imagine a backup big is needed if both Al/Sap walk.
 
Who's everyone's second choice if Schröder is off the board when we pick?

I said this before, I'd go with Adams at #14 (he'll definitely be there if Schroeder & Gobert are off the board). I think he's top 10 material if he'd stay 1 more year in college. He also come across as smart and tough minded.

Then go with a stud 2-way 3pt shooting SG/SF: Bullock, Crabbe, Caldwell-Pope, Rice, Snell.


Adams is a shot blocking C who seems pretty smart. He can back up Favors & Kanter. Then one of the SG/SF can slot right in next to Hayward and shoot 3's ala Kawhii Leonard/Green of Spurs. Also helps boost our defense - we need a Stevenson type player, a fearless, lock down defender.
 
based on the speculation in my last post (#13958) our team would look like this next year:

Mo, pick 13 (Schroeder), Tinsley?
Gordon, Burks, Murphy
Marion, DMC, pick 21 (Giannis)
Kanter, Marvin, Evans,
Favors, Pick 14 (Gobert), pick 46 (Iverson)

This team costs 50M.

Obviously the draft picks could be different ie: bongo instead of Iverson. If so then drop Tinsley and sign a vet big (Jason Collins as PR move to show Utah likes gays).

Sounds good, but like Num said Dallas would probably go with Bucks as it's in another conference.

Ooh, Ben Gordon's a great idea. 13mil + their 2014 pick would be rad.

Dunno. The bobcats are at 53+M next year with 12 players under contract (11 players + their 2013 pick). I don't understand what that organization is doing but I'd be happy if the Jazz took Gordon off their hands for a year.

I broke down what the draft pick situation was with Charlotte a while ago, but needless to say, any pick the Jazz get would be protected to some degree.
