Jazz Free Agency Summer of 2018

[Jack Strop]

I would be okay with Favors (2 years), Exum (4 year deal $8 per), and Hezonja.

Not bad. I predict Favors may want a 1+1. And we're not going to like the contract we give Exum. I'm hesitant to tie up money on anything but a 1 yr deal. There's always an outside chance for a free agent next summer. Or Jazz may want to have funds under the tax to make a trade. That's one of the primary reasons for bringing back Thabo and either Jerebko or Udoh.

5 years? I'm thinking 4+1

Fine... but know he’s doing us a solid.

Booker to replace Jerebko, perhaps?
Jazz are intent on assembling the meanest SOB's in the league. Seriously, would you want to mess with Utah when they can send Crowder and Booker after you? Those two are like the twin pit bulls you see guarding junkyards. But has he learned how to shoot? Has Crowder?

At least LA might screw over Houston a little bit.

I hope they max him.

Trade Burks and Favors for Parker and Delly, then sign Booker.

Maybe that's a condition of a Rubio extension given some of the cheap crap he got last year. Book and Crowder would scare the **** out of me in a dark alley.

If the team is healthy and improves in a few areas just slightly, that's a good enough team to win 55 in the W, assuming the tear-arse we did in the 2nd half of last year wasn't a fluke.

I'll agree, that's a satisfactory offseason in my eyes. None of the big UFA targets make a lot of sense in my eyes considering our cap situation, roster, and their price tag.

My one hope is to use some of our option contracts to scoop up a future 1st in the Kawhi or LeBron situation. If we could add an extra pick and come out of the offseason with a 55-win young core that's under contract for multiple years, I would vote that a success.

Ooooo.....

My dream off season would be complete.

 

[LoPo]

We still haven't done anything with Thabo, haven't heard anything from the meeting with Favors and have heard nothing about Exum who was the "top priority".

Lots of news should be coming out before long....

 

[Ron Mexico]

You are correct. He has been a huge reason why we won a couple key games in the 1st round the last couple years. However, his limitations (offensive limitations and constant injury concerns) are a big reason why we got swept vs Golden State and lost 4-1 to Houston. Paying him $12 or more a year knowing that he's a consistent 12ppg and 8rpg guy with no range is not the type move contenders make.

Favors had nothing to do with us losing to GS or Houston besides being hurt. We played great with him vs GS when he was healthy.

Zero ******** will be allowed... none!

Super Mario is still available right? What’s the price tag on him?

He is still available and the rumor is the knicks are offer part of the MLE for one year. We could beat that if we want to.
