Sources: Bobby Portis significantly interested in Utah

Say no to miroshi*

Probably a really low chance Mirotic is looked at. Jazz have had a few opportunities to add him over the last few seasons, but have not done so.

Same for Bjelica. Could have signed him for next to nothing last offseason and went with Niang instead.

It’s different if we waive Favors though... don’t think they wanted to pay those guys to be bench pieces... Niang was signed to play Jerebko minutes.

I don’t want Portis at what it would cost.... would rather sign JaMychal Green for less or sign Rudy Gay. I think I might rather keep Favs than get Portis.

Mirotic looked REALLY bad in the playoffs this year. I don't want him. He is a streaky 3 shooter but that is about it.

I think Green is a really underrated option. Dude is an excellent rebounder. Size. Shot the three at 40% this year on a healthy 4.6 attempts per 36. Grab him and someone else.

How much do you pay Green + Ed Davis and how much of Favors’ production are they replacing?

Miroshi* can't play d and gets benched in big games too inconsistent. So he is a stiff. See the ecf

How much is Green going to cost? Can he be had with Favors? I know very little about him.

No idea on his market. I’d imagine $10M gets him, probably less when all is said and done. I think the problem with getting anyone while maintaining Favors is that we basically Jae Crowder them. That is, put them in a situation that’s not best for them (or the team) to be able to continue starting Favors.

I still don't understand this love for Jabari. Favors > Jabari and we'd have to lose Favors to sign Jabari. Hard pass from me.

Jabari is as good at offense as Favors is at defense, and as bad at defense as much as Favors is bad at offense.

You basically get the flipside of the Favors coin. We need more offense than defense right now, so... yeah

The Jazz will not go after Portis due to his cheap shot on Mirotic. They avoid any unstable players like that.

Haha, no.

I'm not opposed to signing jabari for cheap. But that is way off.
