Yes. Hood may or may not be there if we obtain Love but damn would I love that lineup above subbing Danny Green for Hood.

True, but his role was still pretty much the same. Stand and watch James Harden get you wide open 3's.

It's just not worth it for Beverly. We dont need defense at the PG position that badly. I dont think Beverly is moving the needle on any decision Hayward makes, so you run a huge risk of selling draft picks you are going to need if Hayward leaves.

If we trade for Beverly but dont re-sign Hill, we are still a worse team. I'd rather just go after Teodosic with the MLE if we can't get Hill.

Wasn't Teodosic looking for 10 million a year? MLE is 5.9?
 
I like the idea of trading for Beverly, but I wouldn't give 2 firsts. Maybe a first and a future 2nd.

I don't believe Teosodic is a realistic option if he's looking for 10 million a year.

It will matter once Utah gets into the tax. I've been saying for some time now that they would be paying the tax, and Locke confirmed the other day, but there is still a limit. The deeper you go, the stiffer the penalties get.

Sure, and if we do get Love, having a cheap PG would be optimal. If we aren't getting Love though I think it's more optimal to have the bargain player be at PF and 2nd wing (which will hopefully be Ingles on a 10-ish million dollar deal).

I read it was 24/3 (which I believe is basically the MLE) that Teo was looking for. I think if Utah offered him that with a clear rotation spot for him, he takes it over any comparable offer (or even higher, within reason) from a worse team.

1. Considering Beverly's salary, I don't think your proposal gets it done.
2. You're either spending more money for Teodosic or you're spending more assets for Beverly. Personally, I'd rather add assets.
 
Jazz aren't improving with the addition of a role player like Beverly.Why would Exum want to sit behind all these role players (Mack,Neto and then Beverly).I could see him wanting out of Utah no matter what it takes.
Houston is a elite team and to make him available should signal Jazz to let some other team go after him if Houston is done with him.

Supposedly, CSKA just offered him the equivalent of a 5 year, 62 million deal. The only other recent talk(that I could find) links him to Chicago.

Could be a good fit for him there if the Russian money doesn't convince him to stay there.
