I recommend folks listen... These guys understand the cap and the salary constraints this summer are going to have a deep impact... folks are going to flip out over how little some FA get. If the Jazz play hardball Favs at 1 for 8M is realistic. Teams don't have space to sign anything more than MLE this summer and many teams won't be doing that. We may want to hold our exceptions until the end of FA and look for huge bargains.
 
Wow. I highly doubt either happens tbh. Get both back for one year at $14 million? That’d be insane.

Dante's QO is $4M so.. its both guys for 12
 
I would love to have Favors back, like to have Exum back, both for the right price.
I would be amazed/shocked but dream of having PG here.
If we got PG and Favors I'd probably cash in my 401K to buy season tickets for the next 6 years to life.

I have no clue how this off season will go.

Wouldn't blame you on that. Problem is, unless PG opted in on his contract to facilitate a trade to the Jazz, I'm not really sure how Utah could retain both. A trade around Burks, Crowder, Jerebko, and a first would work pretty easily capwise, but I doubt OKC would buy into that.
 
Exum taking the QO would surprise me. Gotta think he wants some sort of long-term security, and I think the Jazz are willing to pay enough on a multi-year deal where he'll be comfortable with it. Obviously, it's a trade off if he explodes this season and sacrifices big UFA $ next year, but it's a real risk.

Sure as hell wish I was making that decision for myself this summer.

Favors for one year at only 8 million would be amazing, absolute best case scenario. I would love to have Exum at only 4 million but if he signs the qualifying offer and then has a huge season, we're either going to end losing him in free agency next year or having to pay him a lot of money.

I would definitely give Exum what he wanted from Orlando in that podcast. I also think the Jazz will give Favors more if he's to stay.
