Agree he is a great fit. Also agree that you give up a 1st for him (as long as it's lottery protected)...if you are commited to attempting to compete now. Do you think that's the philosophy we should be taking? Curious what the consensus is around here...
I would love to add crowder and see what we can do next year.
 
We could really use a youngish (25 or under?) stretch 4 who has some balls. A stretch 4 a little bigger than Jae. Does such a thing exist?
I think Jae is perfect. Especially with that contract
 
Before Hayward left, the Jazz we're going to plateau as a 55 - 60-win team that loses in the WCF, basically like Memphis a few years ago or San Antonio this year.

Sure, without any significant additions/internal development. But with Hayward, theoretically at least, we were only a star away from legitimately competing. Losing him has widened that gap considerably & lowered that "plateau" significantly as well IMO
 
The Jazz are definitely not in a strong position. The position they are in is wait for Boston to exhaust every other option they have and hope it works out for them. They literally cant do anything other than wait on Boston. That isn't a position of strength.

Boston will come back to the table with something. What will that tell you about our negotiating position?
 
How do you know when you plateau?

Not sure if you're joking. By plateau, I meant reaching a level of success while lacking the necessary assets/financial resources/potential for internal development to significantly improve the roster in order to take that next step in competing.

But how do you know when that moment has occurred? I dont see the Jazz plateauing anytime soon.
