What is Rudy's actual worth?

Remember the days of us thinking favors and Rudy were going to be a super front court duo and how disappointing they were? Good thing we are past those...oh ****.
Were they disappointing? They were consistently amongst very positive 5-man combos. It didn’t work well with Rubio, though, so we’ll have to be careful not to play Rubio with them this time around, even just in spot minutes.

It's always somebody else's fault when it comes to Rudy. We had nothing but defenders, and we struggled in the playoffs. Too many defenders around Rudy.We have too many offensive players, and we struggled in the playoffs. Not enough defenders around Rudy.

Rudy doesn't dominate in the playoffs. Why can't you guys get that through your heads?

That last year with Corbin though. THAT was rough.
 
AD got 5 years $190. Let's just use the first 4 years as a base because I don't want to pay Rudy a max type number when he is 33+.

AD
20-21 $33
21-22 $35
22-23 $38
23-24 $40+
4 years around $146

I think AD is a more valuable player than Rudy especially come playoff time, marketing, etc. Let's just say he's worth $5 million more per year. And we should put Rudy on a declining deal.

Rudy
$35
$32.5
$30
$27.5
4 years $125

Seems fair

We would all love that deal but there is not a chance it is that low. If the Jazz come in with those number my guess is that Rudy is gone.

Your jokes about this may deflate come traded deadline when DL’s big move to get under the tax is sending Conley and picks to Minnesota for Rubio and Ed Davis.
 
Jimmy Butler is on a 4-year / $140M deal. Give Gobert 4 years / $145M and call it a day.

If he demands a 5th year, give him 5 years / $165M and load the contract up with incentives.

Why does Rudy deserve more than Jimmy Butler?

Because the Jazz are the team that drafted Rudy and they have the ability to pay him more. Butler got the max that he's eligible to receive. Rudy's max is the super-max. Although the Jazz shouldn't give Rudy the super-max, they can give him a nod and exceed the max.
