Official trade Exum and/or Bradley into cap space thread

[Handlogten's Heros]

It ain't happening. Zanick got DL to move on from a couple things... lets not remove all of DL's security blankets. Exum is in a position where if he gives us something it's a bonus... we don't need him. It likely requires an asset to move them so no thanks for now.

Exum gonna be our xfactor this year.




I think I said this every season lmao

Yes.

Unless some team has a secret irrational crush on Exum I think the Jazz keep him.

The Jazz desperately need Exum to show something. If Conley plays the way we all want him to play, he is only here for one year.

Ideal situation is that Conley is amazing, gets some ridiculous deal from someone else and Exum flourishes as a backup PG and takes over next year as the starting PG with Mitchell, Gobert and Bojan.

Signing Conley to another 3-4 year deal seems like a really bad deal.

We desperately need Exum to freaking do something.

If Willie Reed looks better than Bradley this Summer League, is there a single reason we shouldn’t just fork over the paltry amount to buy out the last year on Bradley’s contract and give Reed his roster spot? We wouldn’t have to give up an asset.

We spent more on the second round draft picks than it would cost to buy out Bradley. I really think this SL might be a playoff between Reed and Bradley for the third C roster spot. Am I crazy?

You’re acting like every last one of us wouldn’t love to see Exum prove us wrong. Him exploding only helps this team. I like the kid, he has excellent speed and D. I think he’d be a great back up.

But if you can’t stay in the court it doesn’t matter if your Michael Jordan. All you’re doing is harming the team.

Oh ok well tell that to the team who just shelled out $40 million for someone who won’t even play for them for 12 months...

And my main point is that with the off season we’ve already had, how can we seriously expect any more from the FO.
They done and amazing job and I’m willing to give X one more season to prove he should remain..

Title says it all. Moving them into cap space allows us to pick up a Marcus Morris or JaMychal Green and/or Alex Caruso.

Yes or no?

Oh please yes. We get Morris and Caruso and we’re championship favorites. **** the Lakers or Sixers

Durant is a proven top 3 player in the league, Finals MVP, and HOFer and even then, that monster signing is risky imo. But hey, they’re planning on winning the title not this year but next. They’re making an investment, and again, I think it’s risky.

Exum has 2 games in 4 seasons where he looked decent. and nearly every year he breaks by Christmas. So yeah, not even close to Durant.

The front office isn't dumping Exum. They have made that very clear. Personally I agree with that choice but I understand that some don't.

If a good player became available and they wanted Exum then it might happen.

Exum is going to be good this year off the bench. That second unit it going to play some damn good defense and run. Exum Royce Ingles Davis plus whoever else we pick up or one of our 2nd round picks that makes the team is going to hustle. Not sure who plays the pick and roll with Exum though. Ed Davis isnt really much of a pick and roll guy. But maybe with Exums lob ability that will change.

The only reason I brought up KD is because someone brought up MJ first.....
maybe if he Quin hadn’t hooked him so quickly in some games, he might have looked decent in more than 2 games yeah...?
I know he’s a bit injury prone but I’m not giving up him yet and again, my main point is we’ve just jumped up to begin a front line contender for the championship.
I’m more than happy with what they’ve already done upstairs...

This is pretty much what I'm thinking. Someone had said that Morris has been the best defender against LeBron for the past 2-3 years.

Yeah, I saw a few games. He’s pretty good. He’s thick so he can’t be bullied as easily by lebron yet is athletic enough to be able to stay in front of an aging lebron. Plus, he plays with an edge, so that helps him get under his skin a bit.

I love his offensive game. It would perfectly compliment what we’re trying to do out there regarding spacing. Hed definitely force defenders like lebron or Green to play honest and not cheat/play the passing lanes.
