Pleiss Traded to Philly!!!

Ummm, gais?

Gobert extension incoming.

That has zero to do with this deal... His extension has no bearing on this year's cap.

Which means we basically sold a couple second round picks for 3 mil. We free up a needed roster spot for Bolomboy and we get rid of a player who was never going to see the floor. Solid move by the Jazz. Turn something we don't need into something we do.

Yeah, when you put it like this (2 seconds for 3M) it doesn't sound as such a huge overpay. I'd still say we overpaid a bit but nothing too egregious.

Also I wonder if there is an unsigned veteran free agent out there that the Jazz might think fills a need. If I remember Horny cut Marshall in Phoenix along with Diante Garrett and when it came time to get a DLeague point guard I think Horny said Garrett was the higher caliber guy personality wise.

We have 4 second rounders and 2 first rounders next year. One of the second rounders is GS... so they will get that one and it will be like the 59th or 60th pick which has no monetary value. The other one will likely be NY's which will be anywhere from 39-45 is my guess.

Need to see what cash went out, but it seems about the right value to me. I don't want us to end up like Boston this year... had a ton of picks and may have to release some decent prospects because of a roster crunch. Offloading one of these picks (the GS second rounder shouldn't even count)is not going to hurt us at all.

Anyone with any clue about how things work will continue to acknowledge that it was obviously the best we could get for Enes.

Not that I have any desire to rehash Kanter, but if there are two teams willing to give a player a max contract, I'd suspect that player's value on the market may be at least a tier above packing peanuts.

Would you have given him the max from Utah's perspective?

One of those will be Mr. Irrelevant too... that GS second rounder will be 57-60 unless Curry, KD, and Thompson get suspended for PED use. In which case our 2017 GS first rounder would look good.

Now that Pleiss is gone, who has the most unreal shooting mechanics on the team?

If we called OKC and offered Tibor for Kanter (ignore CBA) my guess is they'd do it.

I think Porty trolled OKC... Would anyone doubt they would do that... they are the worst.

Withey's 15 footer is smoove.

I will miss the few times Tibor would check into the game and I would pause the TV to tell whoever I was watching with that in the next 30 seconds that big white guy will set an obviously illegal screen, get called for the foul, and then look totally confused and sad. Every. Time.
