Thabo Guaranteed for 2018-2019 Season

I didn't feel like staying the obvious. He's a better ball handler and assist man but Thabo is supreme from 2 and solid from 3, and a significantly better defender.

It'll probably come down to matchups and I think Thabo helps a win now mode team more. I hope Royce earns that spot by playoffs. I have a lot of hope for the kid, but history isn't really on his side here.

O’Neale is a fantastic wing defender already. “Significantly” May be a stretch.

History may not be but the Jazz coaching staff is.
 
This move makes a ton of sense to me. Seemed like a no brainer unless something unexpected was happening. I can see the decision with Jonas and Udoh going either way depending up what Favs.

I do agree that the jazz are more likely to improve internally. That’s why it’s frustrating they just picked up a 35 year old player coming off an injury who has to serve a suspension to start the year. I think it’d make sense to put stock in younger players that will be around and actually have some upside.

Thabo adds to the culture and he had his best offensive season with us. Not everyone needs to be young.

Assuming Favors is back, Udoh will likely depend more on Bradley's performance in the SL than anything else.
 
Im so dissapointed in everyone who likes this.

Y'all know he is 34 coming off MCL surgery. Has never averaged more than 8pts per game, and pretty has never done anything ever.

But I guess everyone is expecting the 34 year old with the bum knee to lock up some of the best wings in the game.

Right.

Ill see you in the reget threads midway through the season.

I cant help but think that money could have been more useful somewhere else.

No you won’t. He’s an expiring contract, good locker room presence and a great vet teacher for Mitchell, Allen, O’Neale and Exum in the final year for such things.

Being upset over this is simply petty sour grapes.
 
We're a 50+ win team as currently constructed and no major injuries. I'm not mad and completely looking forward to next year. Individual guys have to get better though. Let's see Mitchell and Royce take a step. I'd love to see the other rotation guys improve too.

There's a track record of guys improving hugely here. See: Ingles.

He's making 5.5m for one season, not 25m for multiple years. That'll be a lonely thread for you.
