How To Use Burks' TPE

[bigmike]

The Jazz are the king of scoring random little trade assets. S/O Ante Tomic.

But won't the cap hold from Rubio, Thabo and friends keep us over the cap?

Yes, which is why we have to waive them to get Conley.

Utah is releasing Rubio's hold to make the Conley deal work. Thabo and Udoh are pretty much Euroleague bound at this point.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

Mo Wagner and S&T for Caruso. That's two players for the bench. I also think it bites the Lakers in the end. . .

I love how jazzfanz overrates Caruso to hell. Lol

Not after they release the holds in order to be under the cap in order to do the Conley trade.

We gotta stop hemorrhagic our liquid assets at some point. Anyone that fills this basically needs to give us assets or not cost us any. Cuz we’re running out of them.

Nene and Wagner make a lot of sense to me as fitting the bill. But that’s also because I don’t see how this can be our team when there’s a ~$17 million elephant in the room that’s a center.

bro.... I think it's time to give it a rest.... and just relax as this plays out. Love you, doe. (But, in full disclosure, this line is getting ****ing exhausting)

You mean the 6'5" guy who shot 48% from 3 last year (in limited time) can drive the hole and could be had for under 2 million? Oh, but yeah, he's white and balding so he sucks, right? Why would the shooting starved Jazz want anything like that?

Can you imagine the bitching if we actually traded for Mirotic, and everybody came face to face with the reality of him as a player rather than what they THINK he is?

He would be cheap and would fit doe at least

Celtics shopping Baynes right now. Anyway we get him? He'd be good buddies with Ingles and he can shoot 3s when asked.

He is cheap for a reason. Everybody knows what he brings, and doesn't bring, to the table.

 

[framer]

Honestly, I think you get Curuso at a huge discount because of the way he looks. Just like we got Joe Ingles.

Same with Kevin Love. I don't think people realize what they are wishing for. Good thing our FO works in the realm of reality

Ouch.

 

[framer]

Ouch.

Do you really think that the Clippers didn't say to themselves "Jordan Farmar and Jared Cunningham LOOK like NBA players, so we are dumping the goofy Australian dude!" Because, in reality, neither of those guys is in the same basketball universe as Joe Ingles. Look at the comments after games. Teams pissed that they got straight up beat by a dude that looks like an accountant, which is code for a follicly challenged white dude. It's obvious that there is a racist standard in play here. I don't see why we shouldn't look to profit off of it.

I disagree. There have been different versions of Niko on different teams. There were times in Chicago and new Orleans where he was fantastic for long stretches of games.
Then there were bad stretches
I think he is plenty unknown.

What i do know is that he is cheap and can shoot.

[Chargers Jazz Angels]

Saric is the dream scenario.

Wagner the most realistic. I could see Bonga too

TJ leaf is probably available. Seems he is going the way of the leafs. Total busts

Go ask Budenholzer how well he fits in a defensive scheme.

You just defined a streaky offensive player. (No mention of defense). Why can't he be fully known as a streaky player?

I just don't think he is an effective starter on a team that needs a strong 4. If we replaced Crowder with Mirotic, OK. But replacing Favors AND Crowder with Mirotic? That will end badly.
