Are we going to potentially match an offer, falling for the Hey! I went to Turkey for a month, came back 20 pounds heavier, and finally got back into game shape in mid-January Kanter next season?
Trade Proposal: Kanter to LAC
- Thread starter NAOS
- Start date
"We" fell for an injured shoulder, high injury risk game, who hasn't proved anything yet and could be replaced for less than half the cost Alec. Why wouldn't they fall for Bench Enes scoring 20 ppg and doing nothing else? We have our Detroit, right? Let's roll with KOC's draft role.
**** me if Enes is signed like Burks. That contract already killed the rebuild, why not add another stain to the record.

Who are the free agent targets, and what chance do the Jazz have of signing any of them?
Goran Dragic
Wes Matthews
Monta Ellis
Arron Afflalo
Danny Green
Paul Millsap
The Jazz can always rescind Enes's QO and waive Booker (they have until a week after the July Moratorium to waive him for only $250k) if they want to sign a free agent. You only move Enes if you're getting something back of real value IMO (including in a package with other players). Two late firsts don't move the needle much at all.
Edit: Booker may be a very valuable asset come July. A team could trade players worth up to $7.26mm for Booker, and then cut Booker for $250k, creating better than $7mm in cap space. It's entirely possible that alone is worth a first round pick.

Mostly, they are mad at him for blewing up a rare 3rd pick, especially while there were some other players on the same draft picked later who grew faster to help their teams win today rather than tomorrow. They are relatively right too. But you also are right when you say they undervalue him. If there was a game changer hole filler they could grab for him, Jazz may be better at leading games going into final minutes with less defensive liabilities. But the minus points per game would be an issue, because there are not many consistent scorers on the team.

Trade Enes for 2 future first round picks?? That will come later in the draft than sooner, a few years from now??? Genius!!!!! Then we could lengthen our time to be a winning team!!! Besides not making the playoffs is awesome!! Maybe if we can do really awful we can one day get the first pick!!! I hope the Jazz will one day get rid of all the players with more than 2 years of experience and have a roster of 15 rookies!!! yeah!!!! And since Hayward is Jesus/Chamberlain maybe we could get a 1st round player for life!!! Lets just start signing kids out of middle school. !!!!! YEAH!!!!

I am going to forgive you because its obvious that you posted that with emotion attached, not common sense. DO YOU REALIZE WHAT NBA TEAMS WILL PAY FOR EVEN MEDIOCRE BIG MEN?? Worthless??? You must be an MLB fan posting on an NBA site like you know what your talking about. Worthless??? An NBA big man that has received starting minutes and has a 17.65 PER (I'm not explaining to you definitions you should know) are worth some good money. Especially those of his age and PPG and RPG. Do your homework at least a little bit. Please. Worthless??? WOW!!!

They should be mad at managment for having Memo, BIG-AL, lil´sap, Favors and then drafting another BIG with a rare 3rd Pick. Now they have a worthless player, who is putting down some worthless stats, without any positive influence on the game...

What nonsense.
Kanter is starting to grow on me. He's actually trying on defense. Two reasons I want him gone:
Bigs aren't in demand and wings are at a premium. He can be replaced with the same offensive production and better defense for the same price or less. Kanter will get more than other, established vets because he's young.
There isn't an endless pool of money. There's a lot tied up in Hayward, Favors, and Burks already. We have to sign a point guard for good $$$$. What's left if Kanter is a $10mm bench player? This team can't afford ten million dollar bench players.
