Jazz front runner for Conley

I would rather have Russell or Holiday but I don't think that they are possible without cutting Favors. Keeping Favors and adding Conley would be better don't you think? Not sure how this trade as far as saleries go would work though.

We would still have the MLE and room exception to help fill out the roster.
 
F*** Conley. He’d be a mistake. I have such a hard time seeing what everyone sees in him. He’s a 32 year old non-all-star. He didn’t average over 20 points a game until year 11 in the nba. He’s over 20 a game now but he’s been on a crap team. He’s a good defender, but he lacks size. He’s old and his durability is a question. His contract is huge and the price to get him via trade is also super high. So many red flags....

If we then signed a Niko or Jabari, we’ve 1. already addressed shooting partially and 2. our shooting issues aren’t as glaring when we’re not trotting out 3 non-shooting starters.

This feels very similar to the Ricky Rubio trade with Minnesota two years ago. The Jazz traded their OKC 1st-rd pick (which they got in the Enes Kanter trade) just a few days before the draft, and that was it. We took Rubio into space, and Minnesota made a big offer to Jeff Teague. The Jazz are trying to get Conley without giving up much--probably because Conley is 32 and he costs a boatload.

Can't compare the two man. Rubio sucks Conley is a game changer

Agreed. Conley and Niko would solve plenty of issues we've had. Rest is simply filling spaces where we need it. But we'd be about 8 deep by my reckoning. If we got more, all the better.

He is still better than Rubio, Exum and Neto combined.

Niko sucks, he can't play against elite defenders that's why he rides the pine in decisive games. He is a stiff

and twice as expensive as all of them combined, and one and a half times as old. So what? If we get him Jazz management tells us all year he has to get acclimated to the team and he has to figure some things out. All of the sudden its the final year of his contract and hes 34 and were looking at the next rental PG? It is so glaringly stupid that the Jazz want to throw assets at acquiring a 2 year PG rental with a huge contract.
