Rubio traded to Jazz

.... DL is effectively giving up Exum being a pg. This is my real concern. DL wants X cause he sees potential with his length and speed - but doesn't want him as a full time pg. A future sf or sg.... I just hate this thinking without giving him an extended run at it.

No. Pls stop.

Also now that the dust has settled, I really do think Rubio with 2 years left on his deal, is a GREAT stopgap for when Donovan Mitchell (or Exum) becomes ready to take over the reign at the PG spot.

But I don't get that.
Rubio will be in his prime then.
Are you just assuming that Mitchell (or Exum) will be an All Star by then? Despite not ever being given the chance to be the main pg...

I like Exum. I have a lot of hope.

I hate Exum homers. Your insistence to bend the light of everything into some distorted view on Dante Exum is ****ing annoying as ****. It's ignorant of so many things. Stop being a dumbass.

Stop with your lame negging rep points. Lame.


The Exum homerism is based on a belief that he can be the difference maker. Not some friggin uncontrolled urge to bone him.

Can someone with a little time break down our player by player contract situation for both this year and next based on our current roster?

I'm curious where we're at as a team cap-wise now and where we'd be next year with this group. Plug in Hayward at the max for this year and next.

Great resource, updated as transactions happen. We are $7 million in the luxury tax with a Hayward $29 million contract and an Ingles $15 million contract (assuming we don't guarantee Diaw or Neto)

I think we are really going to try to find a way to move that Burks contract somewhere.
 
One more thing to sell Hayward on after this trade - every single key piece for the Jazz is either just entering their prime or still hasn't entered their prime. Rubio's timeline is much more in line with Hayward's than Hill's was. Compare this to Boston - both their best players are probably past their prime and will be going down. IT has been meeting doctors to determine if and when he needs a surgery which is happening over a month after end of the season, hip surgeries are no joke . Horford is on the way down and already suffered a step back last year compared to previous seasons. AND they will need to lose one more piece for them to even get Hayward. and will probably lose another piece next year.

Surely the only way he goes now is if Ainge convinces him they are going to ship all their assets for AD. But no guarantee that deal gets done.

I guess we'll just have to take your word on that. The available evidence suggests otherwise.

But you said yourself you have high hopes for him?

The available evidence (according to you) means that this hope is unfounded.


OR

do you think I have the aforementioned uncontrolled urge?

Either way you sound like a hater in general. Lighten up.
