It's Over - Ne Deal for Gtime - RFA time

What's funny about playing for the Jazz is that a number of players came here and like SLC. And I can think of a few crappier places than SLC that have NBA teams. Sure - most guys would rather play for Miami, NY or an L.A. team, but if I was a player, I'd much rather live in SLC than Cleveland or Detroit.
We signed Favors to an extension and that's huge. Overpaying Heyward would be stupid. For $10,000,000 a year I'm sure we could sign someone comparable. It's not the end of the world. Plus he's restricted.

That's pretty damn good company to be in. The way I see it, Hayward's ceiling is at best the floor of this category, which is a $10mm-$12mm player. If he proves to be a $12mm player then the Jazz did not lose much making him prove he's worth it.

Thanks for pulling these!
Only another reason for Boston to drive up the price above market to get the Jazz to recind their rights to Hayward and let him walk. He's white and a fairley decent player, exactly what that Irish crowd in Beantown wants. And besides, he'll be united with his College Coach. For him, lots of incentive to leave...
Jazz's thinking must have simply been "If we can't get a bargain or a fair price, why not let the market determine it next offseason"?

With 10 mil in cap space and possibly Wiggins or Parker from the draft? They will cross GH from their interest list the same moment they get new budding star wing player from the draft.
Here's the deal. We all like Hayward, I am sure the jazz really like him as well. There is no reason to pay someone that hasen't even started a full season max money without him proving he is worth it. If he proves he is worth max or near max contract the jazz will match what ever he signs. I believe this puts much more pressure on Hayward than on Utah. Utah has more or just as much money as anyone. Denis made the right choice.
Yeah, they coudln't stand Rondo, KG, Ray Allen and Pierce.
I demand that affirmitive action be applied to this case and Haywards future spot on Boston go to Ian Clark.
That's true.
Let's say we got Jabari. I think he can do a lot of the things that Hayward currently does and then some. Better shooter, better rebounder. By that time Burke should have settled down into a nice floor general for us. Burks seems like he might have a pretty good year this year as well and hopefully he'll demand less money (other teams don't seem to like him as much).

Kanter
Jabari
Burks

The boat is full G-Time!!!!
Have they embraced them the same way they embraced Bird though?
