One other note from Tony Jones' story. "Dennis Lindsey is actively shopping for a veteran PG."

That says something about either Hill's willingness to resign, DL's interest in using Hill's salary space for another major player (which would assume Hayward is returning), or Exum being included in a trade (which would assume both Hayward and Hill returning.)

Fascinating.

Yep. I think this is a clear sign that Hill is gone. Not so sure about Exum.
 
I'm sorry to disappoint you guys but Beverley on this contract can easily get a first.

I would be totally okay if us sending our 2nd rd picks and cash or player. This draft has a lot of good players, I don't want us to give up our 1st rd picks too easily.

Look at Lou Williams' PER and stats this year. He's an upgrade over Hood in many ways. And he's only 30. http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/2799

Beverley is a good, defensive PG making next to nothing.

If we can add both of these guys for #30 without having to give up an asset, what a damn good trade.

I think mle is more like 8 or 8.5 million, and I think that's about what Teo will sign for.

I'm just going off of Larry Coon's numbers. If someone has a link to info otherwise, it would be greatly appreciated.

I don't love this on its own, but the Jazz are in a tough spot. Everything would have been better if Hill had just signed the extension. He's probably going to get the same or less money on the open market with all the PG trade movement.

I hope that this is somehow part of a plan that includes picking up a great player at another position other than PG. If that is the case then I think this is an ideal guy who can start, add some toughness, and compete with Exum (should he still be around) for a spot as Exum matures.That has kind of been my #1 option for the offseason if the Jazz can make it happen. I would hate this if Hill was back unless they traded a package including Exum for some other good piece or pick.

I don't like the idea of trading Exum so we can get Hill AND Beverley. Seems counter productive to me.

I could see us targeting Lou Williams and Beverley so Houston can create cap space. I think we would have to use #30 and either #42 or #55 to make this trade happen.

Then we can trade Favors, Hood, Lyles, Diaw's non-guaranteed, #24, and maybe a pick from next year. Without all of those guys (very unrealistic), we still have a good core roster except for PF:

PG Beverley, Exum, Neto
SG Williams, Burks
SF Hayward, JoeJ
PF Bolomboy
C Gobert

I think all it really says is that they don't know for sure he'll be back, in which case he wouldn't be doing his job if he wasn't preparing for the worst.

Trading Exum makes no sense. The value he has for the Jazz is so much higher than what they could get for him in return.

I'd also keep Hood for similar reasons and try to move off Burks contract (to the Hawks maybe?). I don't see any reason to trade Favors or Lyles as well unless you are getting players that are better than them which is unrealistic.
