The JHS Hype Thread

[Park Bites]

I was pumped to see JHS and KJ suit up for the Jazz.

Let's see the roster now

1 markkanen
2 Kessler
3 George
4 Sexton
5 Collier
6 Clarkson
7 filipowski
8 sensabaugh
9 svi
10 Collins
11 Williams
12 Hendricks
13 juzang
14 Martin
15 jhs

2 way
harkless
Oscar
Potter

Am I missing someone? That is 15 if they cut Richardson. They don't have to cut 2.

Just doing some research it looks like Martin's contract is not guaranteed next year at 8 million

Svi and juzang are not guaranteed

Jhs has no contract next year

That is 4 players who could be cut.

I would rather see what martin and jhs have for the rest of the year.

They already cut JHS

I do understand the jazz would prefer to carry 14 players just in case someone is waived the jazz want.

Oh I missed that. So sorry

Jazz are probably auditioning KJ and Svi to be included in a trade this summer. I think they might like Juzang enough to keep him.

It’s time to bring in a revolving door of 10-day guys and have them compete with the two way guys to see who gets a long term, non guaranteed contract.

I have some good ideas.

Ideas are only ideas if you do not share. (Waiting on bated breath)

This is where the actual cruelty of this business lies.

Dennis Schroeder or whoever vet bitching about modern day slavery becaue they have to move their family to another location is just them being snowflakes. Sure its not fun, but companies also relocate their offices or workers and those regular Joes who get relocated dont have millions of dollars or armies of professionals supporting their relocation processes.

However discarding a young "fresh graduate" with injury being part of the basis is something much more horrible and something where sports set the bar MUCH lower than business world. Employers in most countries are liable for injuries suffered at work, and they cant just discard people because they have an injury that causes rehabilitation period or "decreases their efficiency in their role" which is what the logic in NBA largely is. Perimanent disability is a different story and both sports and business have systems in place to help people who end up in that situation, but thats rather rare in both instances.

I'm glad the NBA is at least marginally better than the NFL on they way they deal with injuries.

But yeah, this is a cruel business for many on the margins of it (and many players often find themselves on the margins eventually).

(Just my opinion, I do think it's important to recognize the similarities of sports systems to slavery more generally. Though there are huge, important differences that mean that today's sport's contracts are not slavery, I think we're better off acknowledging where similarities do exist.)

@Jason lock this thread, it's too painful
