Other teams are happy to pay large amount of luxury tax, not so much the Jazz.
They’ve been in the tax in the past. They did it to resign Millsap.

Yes, briefly. Probably would have had a player and fan revolt had Millsap been allowed to go to Portland.They’ve been in the tax in the past. They did it to resign Millsap.
We overpaid for Boozer and Okur. Those are the types of FA's we need. I never counted on getting Kwahi, Thompson or Durant.Studs don’t want to sign here. So what’s your solution? Have Lindsey sign, and maybe even overpay, anyone else?
Rodney Hood, Alec Burks, Trey Lyles.Who are the 2nd tier free agents who still have room to grow potentially?

Restricted though. Any bargain deal will get matchedBobby Portis is a tier 4 or 5 FA who has massive upside imo. I think he'd be relatively cheap and could be a great replacement for Faves.
True but Portis is the most important of those guys. They might not match on a deal, but it would mean it was bad value.Portis, Bryant, Satoransky, Jabari (maybe), Ariza, and others are free agents. It won't be that simple considering that and that they also already have around 65M in Wall and Beal.
Lol, no, just no. That wouldn’t have happened, because later we did let him go and the org moved on just fine.Probably would have had a player and fan revolt had Millsap been allowed to go to Portland.
It certainly was never Larry H's MO -he said a few times his #1 goal was to finish in the black every year. And Lindsey's regime has been characterized by payrolls at/near the bottom of the league. Hell, even this year he eschewed every FA who ended up with a 1yr deal and saved money by replacing Jerebko with Niang - and selling the 2nd round pick.
There's even less of a likelihood of becoming a tax payer now. The penalties are a lot stiffer. Jazz will probably have Mitchell, Gobert, draft picks and bargain basement players.
Jarron Collins.Does anybody know of any big name tree agents?
