Jazz Locker-room Cleanout & Exit Interviews 2016

I'm torn on Booker. Great guy, great locker room guy.

Clearly he brings something to the team we dont have.
Beastmode, and high energy. His shooting deficiencies
are of concern though. As he gets older how much crazy energy,
can he bring off the bench?

I think there is an argument both ways here. If we dont have a plan to upgrade him, keep him.

I fully agree. I also feel the same about Ingles who is a solid 11th/12th man. I feel like we have to keep him for his personality and Aussie ties to Exum as well as the fact that we know he's poised enough to start for 5-10 games should we get a ton of injuries.
 
They are perfect 10th, 11th or 12th guys:

Hayward
Favors
Hood
Gobert
Lyles
Burks
Exum
Neto
Mack
Ingles

Booker
Withey

Draft pick(s)
Vet

That's 14 guys. CJ and Burke will be gone, Withey maybe, depending on what happens with Book and / or trades and picks, one or both of them could be gone.

The question in my mind is, do we really need the vet? This year, after facing so much adversity in so many close games, should've made vets out of our guys. I think it depends on the vet. Who can we get for Book (sign and trade), Burke and our pick? It would have to be someone really good.
 
I'd like the Jazz to keep Booker , he is one of those guys that doesn't need to score to change a game.

Great energy off the bench , he saved so many bad 1st quarters with he's energy.

The guy I'm willing to trade is Favors , I loved him coming out of college , but to me , has a lot of Al Jefferson about himself, nice numbers , will win you a few games, but that's about it , and with Lyles coming on and he's ability to stretch the floor , knock down the 3 and having him and Gobert together makes us a faster unit .

I dunno what the stats say but watching Gobert and Favors together , at times slowed our ball movement and let the defend drop off and clog the lanes for our wings.

Favors+Burke+draft picks , I'd see what we could get , if we have to include Burks to get something nice then I'm all for that as well.
 
How good is Hinrich these days? Better than Mack or Neto? We need to consider any and all upgrades and could use his leadership/personality, as I remember him anyway, imo.

And yes I know we already have a ton of point guards under contract but we can always ship out one or two of them.

Here's one reason you're dumb: when have I ever said that offense wasn't a problem? Is it possible for you to believe that I see more than one problem with the team? Is it possible that I even think offense is the bigger problem?

It is one of the hallmark definitions of 'childish' to take somebodies opinion and misconstrue and mis-emphasize its points the way you have mine.
