Jazz Offseason Plan

JC trades are kinda tough... but I wonder if we could do JC for Kuzma and #22. Actually adds a little salary but changes up the backcourt a bit... I'd be targeting Butler (if cleared) or Duarte as guys that can hopefully be ready to play in year 1. Maybe its a three teamer where we move Kuzma to another team... maybe to the Kings for Delon Wright?

I like JC a lot... but he's not a guy I trust to get 30+ minutes in the playoffs regularly... it would also be different if we had a different mix in the backcourt. I'd like him when Donovan is off the court... but I'd like to have a guy I felt complemented Donovan a bit better in the backcourt.
Favors is the only one likely gone.
I would say JC has more value, but that's all the more reason to trade Bogie. I'm so hesitant to trade Clarkson because he just has a more important skill set than Bogie does. And Bogie is one dimensional and aging, and is kind of redundant. I for sure wouldn't trade Clarkson for Kuzma, not just because I think that's terrible value, but then it seems like he and Bogie would have a lot of overlap. I'd be open to Bogie for Kuzma/22.
How does Bogey for Kuzma/22 work cap wise?
 
Bojan and #30 to SAS for #12?
I don't really even think about them cuz I have no clue what they are going to do... they needed to tear it down but still hanging out in the middle.

I don't either, but here's the thing: Pop has gotta be emperor of the franchise and I have a tough time imagining that he's going to want to slog through a rebuild.

Or send Clarkson instead. IDK. I think they could be getting jumpy and they have the assets that plants crave.

For the most part the let JC cook method of offense is effective, but it doesn't always fit in. I think Bogie fits with more teams.. you can play a few wings at the same time... not sure you can play a few JC's at the same time. If we lost Conley I'd probably prefer to keep JC... if we kept Conley I think JC might be better used to get you something different. Its a legit tough argument.

Huh, I guess I got it mixed up with the Conley sign and trade ideas that have been floating around, and which won't happen. Maybe a 3-team trade, or they sign and trade Schroeder or something. I dunno.
 
Do you think Bogey or JC has more value? Kuzma is a player I think the Jazz should target with either player. I'm not high on him, but the Jazz need to get a little younger.
I think Bojan has a little more value because he's a wing, he's a proven starter, and he's one of the best shooters in the league. Galinari, a free agent last year, signed a contract making a few million more than Bojan yet I believe that Bojan is better.

Clarkson might have value for the right team if they want a guy from off the bench. His contract is better, but he is a one trick pony. He scores, and that's about it.
 
I don't know where to put this, but what if Fredman was the guy who ran the cap math and ****ed everything up?
I'm getting memories of helping my father in law with spreadsheets and fixing literally every formula on the sheet.
