You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

[LoPo]

So we’d have Gobert, Harris, Ingles, Mitchell, Conley and Allen?

And O'Neale, #23 and probably Niang

No matter who we get this year, it’s still not enough to win a title. At the end of the day, our chances of winning it all fall completely on if Dennis can pull another rabbit out of a hat in the draft. I wouldn’t deal a single a pick for any player. Exum is completely dealable IMO

Those misses on Burke and Exum have been so costly. Just Brutal. Not only did they cost us 3 1st round picks on them, 2 of them lottery picks, but then had to spend another lottery pick on George Hill for a year, then another pick for Rubio for 2 years because neither Exum nor Burke panned out... and now we are about to spend one or two more picks for Conley for another year or two. What a disaster... and we still have nothing to show for it and no long-term PG solution. In essence we might spend 7 1st round picks on PGs and none of them would start for us for more than 2 years.

But if we hit on Burke or Exum it likely changes the course if the franchise to where we might not get Mitchell.

Any lamenting on missing on guys should start post DM draft... it would have been nice to have the first for Ricky back but also Ricky helped DM transition so I’m really not sure that was a “waste” of a pick.

The best point guards in the league are top ten picks... we tried to get an elite pg with a high pick... it didn’t work out... tough tiddies

 

[David Stern]

DL has got to be thinking Tobias/Conley at this point. I'm not as worried about the depth we'd lose, I think there's a decent chance Ekpe/Thabo could come back on vet min deals as well

 

[Carbon13]

My gut feeling is if we keep the 12 pick we would have drafted Dejounte Murray with the way Locke gushed about him that year. A Murray / Mitchell backcourt would be deadly on rookie contracts. With that said, like Cy stated, we may not have Mitchell in the first place had it played out that way.

 

[David Stern]

Financially, it could happen.

Renounce/waive Favors, Rubio, Neto, Thabo and Udoh.

Sign Tobias ($32.7 million max)

Guarantee Korver's contract because it would be needed to make the salaries work with Memphis better than his nonguaranteed $3.5.

Trade Exum, Korver, Crowder, and Bradley ($28 million) for Conley ($34).

We might also have to waive or trade Niang ($1.6) to fit all this, but it does seem financially possible.

I think you can keep Neto and Niang if you trade the first rounder. I'd probably do that if I'm the Jazz.

Could you trade #23 for a future first round pick? That would help the Jazz in having assets to trade for Conley.

Wed had the same issue with Murray that we did with Rubio. Can't shoot

 

[Shad]

This might be my opinion but you don’t trade for Conley unless he says he’ll re-sign with the Jazz

I mean he's likely not a free agent for 2 more years but great analysis...

I would assume that the #23 pick was outgoing in the Conley trade.
