Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

Go grab Naz Reid as the primary backup big. He would come relatively cheap compared to the alternatives and would fill a need going forward. I'm extremally confident in our big man development. Also, taking him away from Minny depletes tham and makes them older.

I bet he gets it too. Any decent FA in their mid 20s will get some dough this offseason. Especially 3 and D types. I bet Williams gets $20M a year... Cam Johnson likely $25M a year-ish. Its a lot, but I won't be surprised.

I think he likely gets it too. Would you be comfortable offering that much if you were the Jazz?

I'd rather have Cam at 25 than Grant at 20... if it was structured like Keldon's deal - starts at 20M and goes down 1M per year for four years... then I guess I would be fine with it. Its a deal you could move and looks good in 2 years when the cap is 50% higher. He's an easy guy to fit so it would have some trade value as long as he's healthy.

I like him too. He will get 10M per year though... so not cheap per se... I would personally target Naz and Austin Reeves and hope you could get them for 10M and they grow into 15M-20M type players.

We desperately need a home run in this draft... whether that comes by hitting the lotto and jumping into the top 4 or having one of the three picks be awesome immediately. I think we have a decent chance at making it happen.

No need to worry. We will loose a lot starting now and ended bottom 6 or 7. The 2 win against garbage team give some people the impression that we are too good for tank. I think they are wrong. Let's see in 25 games who is right.

There is only 23 games left and 7 of those are against SA and OKC.

10 million is less than THT money. I'd sign him to a 4 year that averages 10 million. The last two years would be tremendous value, especially when the new TV deal drops.

I think 9 or 10 are most likely unless Lauri gets hurt. I would love to be wrong... so I'm rooting for ya.

I would too because he can play with Kessler if we want to... He will get 25 minutes a night here. Provides some rim protection help and can shoot it. He is also pretty nasty in pick and roll and can work his way from the top of the key to the paint.

I just wanted to calibrate what "cheap" will be... and I think 10M is a nice deal for him.

At this point I consider young players at 10 million or so a year on multi year contracts "cheap." Vand kinda scared me because his contract ended right when the TV money comes in. He will cease being cheap at that point.
