I think Quin would lose his mind on Jabari if Jabari is as lazy as he seems.
I thought exum makes 11 million this year. Hoopshype shows it's 10.6 million. If you add 11 million and the 4 mil from the korver/Burks deal then it totals $15 mil which had me thinking we were within the 25% difference. I think they will be $400,000 short.
If we need a filler, Bradley should be the guy. His salary is $1.6 million. Bradley plus exum equals $12.2 + a $4 mil trade exception puts us within the 25% range. Is that right or do I not know one of the new rules.
That's revisionist history. They purposely sucked knowing the prize could very well be Parker or Wiggins. I recall Locke saying the Jazz preferred Wiggins, but figured he was just trying to release leverage in case Jazz landed the 2nd pick--everyone in the league talked about Jabbari to the Jazz. And it made sense because the Jazz at the time were desperate for anything to market. Favors, and Burks melted in the spotlight, Hayward was cold and sterile as the salt flats in January. Trey was a one hit wonder who's star burned out before November. Kanter was already on his way out the door. Jazz needed to sell tickets and win, Jabbarri seemingly could help them do both.The Jazz didn't tank for Parker. The Jazz tanked because they sucked and was "trusting the process"
Just because your OPINION is different than mine doesn't mean you're right and I'm wrong. The Jazz tried to win all of those games, they just sucked. My original point was that they weren't tanking for Parker, why would they? If anyone, they would rather have Wiggins.That's revisionist history.

Oh, well. Jazz can sign him for a vet minimum in two summers with all that cap flexibility they keep saving.
