What's new

Tomic offered buyout:

Just wanted to add some important information because people is assuming the buyout is the key for bringing him over. Gigantes reported two days ago that Tomic hasn't signed the extension yet. They agreed in principle on the extension but it seems he is just buying some time until the Jazz can make an offer (leverage baby!). His contract expires in July if I remember correctly, so the buyout is not an issue. It comes to the salary and perhaps things like his role on the team, quality of living in SLC compared to Barcelona, etc.

Anyway, I'm taking every bit of information with a grain of salt until he signs a contract either with us or Barcelona. Too much he thinks/says/it's believed....

Fantastic news. No doubt Utah has at least communicated to his agent they are very interested but prohibited from talking specifics until July 1st. I'm salivating at the thought of Gobert, Favors. Tomic and Booker as our 4/5 rotation. If I were DL I'd look to draft a combo forward for depth (since Favors can also play the 5 if needed). Only hole is PG but I agree with those who said we'll likely wait one more year - or at least until the trade deadline to address that issue.

I guess that means I should post the latest Tomic highlight video. Id pay good money to see one of those Tomic post passes to a cutting Burks.
 
Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but I didn't want to start a new one.

GOAT Jazz players list

Ante Tomic

That's all I have so far. Guyz, will you help me fill out the rest of our GOAT Jazz player roster please.

TIA
 
I hear Enes Kanter is a FA; he'd be better than Ajinca.

Seriously, even if Tomic demanded $8M, he'd be a better bargain than any FA center we could sign,
 
If Tomic entered teh NBA draft this year and was guaranteed to come over, what pick do you think he would be?

No, not necessarily. There is a legitimate concern that his game doesn't translate to the NBA level.
 
Tomic reminds me of Pau. In looks and style of play.

I'd be ok with a Gaso-lite off the bench.
 
Maybe there is some team he would love to play for over here that isn't the Jazz and we could at least facilitate a sign and trade (if legal)?
Tomic knows Gobert and Favors will be getting the lion's share of minutes, he is not a moron, and may not like that situation even if its
better money here. After being a star for so long on Barcelona and Real Madrid, that would be quite a downgrade.
If I'm DL, my only goal at this point is to get an asset for him while you still can.
