Jazz Offseason Plan

Really? 12.5 for a guy that was 6th MOY runner up and will be in the Jazz Ring of Honor? The dumbest move ever? I feel like people are way over thinking the Clippers series. Sometimes mismatches are a thing. Remember how everyone on here thought the Jazz broke the Clips after the 2017 series? Payback is a bitch.

Yes. It was completely and utterly pointless. There was no reason to do it. We gave him a deal. Then not too long after, gave him an additional year. At his age, that was silly.

Joe is a very well liked, and respected player. However, I don't see any team giving him any more than the full MLE ($9.7). So let's just say his market is $9-11. We could have probably waited and re-signed him for $11 or $12 and saved a couple million. It would be nice, but not really something worth getting too worked up about.

Well, I don't think anybody saw the pandemic's impact on the salary cap coming. You can blame a lot of **** on DL, but not that. I would much rather pay Joe 12.5 than Bojan 18.7.
 
Jesus, people, it is worth getting upset about. It was completely and utterly premature. There was zero reason to do it. We’re not a ****ing charity. Had we saved a couple million on him, that’s a couple million more we would have to spend, potentially.

It’s semantics. It was dumb as ****. I said it at the time, as did many others here. It made no sense and makes less sense now.

Meh. I feel like you are having a bad day and want to kick the dog a little. There are several other things to be pissed about that are in line before Joe's one year extension.

1. Covid
2. Miami condo collapse
3. Haiti president assassination
4. Tropical Storm Elsa
5. Inflation
6. Recent research on cell phone usage and brain cancer
7. Trump's still alive
8. China
9. Toddlers drowning in swimming pools.
10. Tesla stock in a holding pattern.

What a strange post.

Should we as a forum stop criticizing anything Jazz related until all of these other more important issues are resolved?
