Didn't we acquire the rights to a 7 footer playing in Europe in one of our salary dump trades?Unless we're going to draft another center with a later pick I'd keep him as third, love how dominant he is on the boards and height/length ratio.
There are lots of intangibles (and even tangibles) that you can get at the end of the roster that I wish we did a better job with during the last regime.Also seems like a genuinely awesome person to have in the locker room. Likely a big moral boost type of guy when you are in tanking hell.
Did we get Tomic back in a trade?Didn't we acquire the rights to a 7 footer playing in Europe in one of our salary dump trades?
I think we always shared that in common. The end of the roster, second round picks, minor cap management issues... all can add up to create a huge issue or benefit if you get it right.There are lots of intangibles (and even tangibles) that you can get at the end of the roster that I wish we did a better job with during the last regime.
Kris Dunn also says hello.
How come the experts were busy forcing up an unplanned rebuild while we were unemployed in the sports world and posting on Internet forums?I think we always shared that in common.

I only know of Gabriele Procida who is a 6'7" swingman.Didn't we acquire the rights to a 7 footer playing in Europe in one of our salary dump trades?

Thanks homeyOscar was named first team GLeague along with JD Davidson, Jaylen Nowell, Mac McClung and Malachi Flynn. Davidson was MVP.
I believe he can be signed to a two way deal for next season. Potter has to be signed to a regular deal or be let go. He's ineligible for a two way from the Jazz.Is Oscar available to keep on a 2-way next year? I think Harkless is under contract for next year, but I don’t know about Tshiebwa. I’d like to keep him and see what he can do with more time on the team and a little more consistency.
Oscar has to shoot better to be an effective NBA player. I think he can do that but there is a reason the Pacers walked away from him.As much as I love Oscar, I doubt he can be more than depth/dog insurance. No shade, though. You need end of bench guys that give you value when they’re not playing and ideally also provide something special when they do.
I like a guy like this for energy and practice. I hope they keep him. Ideally on another 2-way contract, but if he can turn his time on the Jazz into a full contract somewhere else - I’ll wish him well. Don’t think we have the roster spots right now.As much as I love Oscar, I doubt he can be more than depth/dog insurance. No shade, though.

I hope we stash one or two picks and that frees up a roster spot. Having an elite NBA skill should give you some extra consideration as you work on other skills.I like a guy like this for energy and practice. I hope they keep him.

What makes you think he can learn to shoot. I don’t even remember him taking even one jump shot.Oscar has to shoot better to be an effective NBA player. I think he can do that but there is a reason the Pacers walked away from him.
