Taylor Hendricks Hype Thread

I don't think we would. I also didn't think we would trade for Collins (without compensation) either. Williams seems like a Detroit Piston to me.

Collins is very unlikely, but Clarkson I could maybe see it (or with small compensation). Dumping either gets us to similar opportunities.

If you have Lauri, Hendricks, Williams, Collins, Kessler on the roster I think its a bit crowded. So I assume Collins would have to go if they went Williams. I don't think we dip our toes in that water unless we move one or two frontcourt pieces. Not that its ever stopped us before lol.

I think part of the appeal of guys like Hendricks at Pat is that you can never have too many of them.

Okoro is the guy I’d be targeting though. Would have been nice to have Simone on a tiny cap hold :/

I hear that... but I also think you can have too many lol. We could likely manage it for a while but its not necessarily ideal.

Okoro is one we should make an offer on and its a two pronged attack. Make sure he is not cheap for the Cavs or that he leaves. Make their life just a little harder as we own their draft.
 
Okoro is cool, but the Jazz should be looking to add players who don't have glaring offensive or defensive limitations that make them hard to play or insert into lineups, like Simone Fonteccio from Detroit....

I'm still salty about that trade and I get more upset as time goes by. If you don't have Simone....you start thinking about giving Okoro/Pat $15-20M+ and you realize you should have just kept Simone.
 
I'm a FO believer and apologist, but I still think that's a super weird move.
This.
I'm almost always glass half full in jazz related things (I'm a homer) but I hated the Simone trade.

The reasoning of conserving space made me furious as those that were calling John Collins "free" on twitter were also caping for the front office saving space by moving Simone as smart.

His caphold was manageable either way and if you really wanted to use cap space this summer don't effing go get a 27M PF/C
