Neto

[homeytennis]

Was put in concussion protocol last night. Locke said this is the fourth time for him. That is tending to being scary for his noggin. DL needs to go find a durable PG this off season.

Maybe Harpring could lend him his old football helmet.

I'm cool with Neto being the third PG but we need someone not made of glass (referring more to Exum than Neto) as our backup so if our starting PG is off the floor we still have some decent production.

Is there any way we can try again for Conley to back up Rubio?

There's a chance. After all, Phoenix is banking on Rudy backing up Ayton.

 

[homeytennis]

That would eat up the Jazz salary cap.

Just get someone like Tre Jones with our 2nd rounder this year. Finding a backup PG better than Neto in the draft shouldn't be hard

Have you been watching Neto since he got back?

I like Mr. Neto, felt like he kind of got a bum deal with the Jazz from the get go. Drafted with Trey Burke and Exum drafted the next season.

Wish he could stay healthy. With no exum Neto should be getting chunks of minutes.

Yes, then he gets hurt every time after some good plays. We need backups to step up and provide us some solid minutes when our staters go down, not to go down with them.

Then, good luck finding a better and healthy PG in the 2nd round.

A player's durability can be discussed separately from his on-court production. You don't get a player who'll be as productive as Neto (probabilistically, of course, because every draft is kind of a crap-shoot, especially outside the lottery) unless you're investing in the first round. And then, your grand prize will be a player with no experience and a whole set of unknowns as far as HIS durability is concerned.

Quit simplifying things so hard. TIA

Jalen Brunson, Frank Jackson and Frank Mason say hi. Even in the free market, we can find someone like Shabazz Napier or Seth Curry who have stepped up big time in many games for their teams this season. And you know what their salary is right? DL just needs to start looking.

 

[NAOS]

Neto is awesome as a 3rd PG. The whole locker room loves him. His nerves don't frazzle. He goes hard. Not very durable, though.

All things considered, DL's guard rotation hasn't been nearly up to the standards of the rest of the roster. That's a major thing holding us back. I understand why he wanted Conley, but dammit I want to see a different strategy when it comes to acquiring point guards... his story is too similar to Hill's and Rubio's.

 

[Shad]

Neto and/or Exum will 100% be off the roster starting next season. We cant have 3 point guards made of glass.

I’d look at Tre Jones with the first round pick. Great defender, great motor, good leadership, and improving shooter.

 

[Jack Strop]

We'll have the same three stooges next year at PG. Jazz will add a wing with the MLE.
