Official Offseason Rumors Thread

Teague still makes sense, but DL needs to drop his offer down. With Teague, Utah likely would have made the playoffs. Now they'd have him for 1/2 season less. I'd offer no more than Burke and the worst of the 2017 1sts.
 
I think Fournier is the guy. He's friends with Rudy, he's long, and he can shoot. If we throw money at anyone this offseason, I feel like hes the guy. Locke talked about Cody Zeller this morning and pointed out that hes an elite pick and pop guy in the pnr. Pairing him with Rodney might be a nice pairing when rudy is off the court. Just some thoughts.

I just hate Cody zellers face so much... I'd rather not have him.

The only way we get Fournier is a max offer... Magic would match it and figure other things out later because they know they can dump the contract. So we'd have to get him on board and then negotiate a sign and trade... So he'd cost some assets and dollars... At that point it's just a bit much for my taste.

Nearly positive you heard Locke wrong. Zeller is a terrible midrange shooter so I doubt he is elite on the pop. It was probably rolling to the basket.

He does have an extremely punchable face though.

This is all I see now when I read Cody zeller.

And Locke did talk him up yesterday, I thought he even said the Jazz had interest or perhaps had pursued him in the past.

Haha... I don't get Cody Zeller honestly. Other than having an elite punchable face he isn't good at any other thing.

Besides rebounding and scoring around the basket, the two basic tenets of being a good big man. Would be a major upgrade over Booker.

He also goes to the FT line at a pretty good rate and actually makes his FT's.

He is also a very mobile big who can hedge, switch and cover a lot of ground in help defense. I like Zeller as a guy in your big man rotation but I doubt his price will make sense in a 1. Favors 2. Gobert 3. Lyles 4. Zeller rotation.
 
I once suggested a Kanter for Zeller trade. IIRC, every JFCer thought that wasn't enough.
