Ricky shoot around comments to media

[Deleted member 95]

Really, at the beginning of entering this forum, I was worried about the things that I read without stopping to think that the majority should be children that no idea should have basketball.
I'm even reading that ricky must sign for less money to play in jazz ... and that after how management has treated it, hahaha let me laugh a little.
If you want, you can tell Ricky to sign for the money Dante charges or even less clear that if ... how much fool
Let's talk about Dante, yes, that guy with less IQ than a fly who does not even know how to bounce the ball and that after two half decent matches with tanking teams has become the new messiah for some of you.
We can also talk about another that says that Ricky can not play against high level pg .. "ask DR, SC, KW although they can ask RW and how Ricky has taken him out of the game more than once.
And finally we'll talk about another who says that Ricky will not have a market in summer.
So it comes to my head,: Chicago, Detroit, Phoenix, Minnesota and be careful not to get through San Antonio that Ricky would go there as a glove with Popovich.
But obviously, if they want a pg of 20 pts per game, that is not Ricky ... nor any of those that they have had in many years.
But you can ask Santa Claus for one. And remember, sometimes what comes next is much worse.
Greetings to all, I will continue reading them from time to time but I do not intend to spend more time writing in this forum.
Goodbye

I told you to chill down El Ijazz.

His 9-22 yesterday doesn't look as bad when you consider he went 0-2 on shots to end the quarter that weren't really within the offense. Don't ke if he had others that were end of shot clock as well.

And one shot was actually a backboard pass to Gobert. Mitchell takes a ton of shots that have no chance of going in to pull the defenders and allow Gobert an easy put back.

Accepting a discount would increase his value to the jazz to keep him too though. Teams typically dont try to rid themselves of good players on cheap contracts. Teams try to keep players that play better than their contract imo.

A cheap contract makes him easier to trade. And he could be traded to any team in the league. Why would Ricky accept less than market value, make himself easier to trade, and give away all his agency regarding where he is playing? Use your head.

 

[NAOS]

Yep, taking a discount could result in many different scenarios. I dont think it necessarily means that he is more likely to be traded though. In fact i think the opposite.

Why has Jae Crowder been traded so many times? He's a solid role player with a great contract, right?

I doubt the Jazz ever considered trading him.

I doubt the Jazz ever considered trading him.

Or maybe they have. But there's little question that his cheap contract makes him much more desirable to the Jazz. It wouldn't be the case if he was making 12m or whatever.

 

[Quin's Murderface]

One more thing. Ricky has been in trade rumors for almost his whole career in the NBA and he doesn't like it. Maybe the Jazz would try to keep him, but I don't think that he is confortable knowing that he is an easily tradeable asset.

Unfortunately for him he'll always be in this situation because he's not quite good enough to be a core piece. It sucks but his game is kind of flawed/inconsistent.

For Rubio, he has two options:

#1 - get the most money possible. By doing so, understand that you could be traded.

#2 - take a very team friendly deal. By doing so, he is more unlikely to be dealt since he has more value to the team than in a deal.

He isn't a $15 million player. If he was making less than $10, nobody would want to trade him because his value. It's like Crowder. Nobody ever mentions trading him because his deal is golden despite his inconsistencies. Same with Ingles to a certain extent. We can live with his slightly more than $12 contract because he is a specialist. If Ingles was making Favors money, he would have more haters.

I doubt the jazz consider trading Royce while on this cheap contract. You should want to keep good players on cheap contracts not want to rid yourself of them. Right?

That's true but sometimes in order to get better talent to the team the organization you're trading with wants those good players on cheap contracts so you have to weigh the +/-'s.

What do Rusell Westbrook, Donovan Mitchell, Victor Oladipo, Jamal Murray, Bogdan Bogdanovic, DeMar DeRozan, John Wall, Gary Harris, Eric Gordon, Dennis Schröder and Terry Rozier have in common? They're all guards known as shooters and/or scorers whose TS% is less than 0.009 from Rubio's (some are marginally above him, some are marginally below him). Well, except for Westbrook and Rozier. Their TS% is even worse than that.

You should pay attention to the rest of the league and watch other teams every night if you think Rubio is so awful scoring the ball and so inconsistent. You're gonna be surprised by how common it is these days for guards to go 30% from the floor in one game and 55% on the next, over and over again.

I think if we had Beverley as Ricky’s backup, it would make it very workable. As-is, there really isn’t anyone coming I. For Ricky who can shoot and we end up doing PG by committee.
