If we decline his team option we'll enter free agency with $19.3M and an MLE I believe so we'll be able to pursue two high end role players. Nikola Mirotic would be nice at the stretch 4 and then maybe another scorer/shooter off the bench. Conley - Mitchell - Ingles - Mirotic - Gobert That's one of the best teams we've had in the modern era, should be elite defensively with a lot more shooting and scoring. Still dont love the bench in Utah, honestly I dont like anything about it really. And you need about 8 guys to be a serious contender if you are building your roster this way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we have an MLE we can use and then fill the rest of the bench out with high end vets on minimum deals looking to push for a title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did I ever suggest that Utah was a big market or a free agent destination? Funny to fans of teams like Phoenix (the worst franchise in the league) and Denver (the worse version of Utah) @champ11 clowning on us. We're better than both of you guys right now and will have some money to improve our roster assuming we let Favors walk. Mirotic has expressed a lot of interest in playing here in the past.

NYRaider Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 People are legit clowning because I said we want to fill out the rest of our bench with veteran role players on cheap deals. Not ring chasers. Legit just guys that actually deserve smaller deals. Can give a bigger named stretch 4 a solid deal still too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not clowning on the Jazz. In this thread I said they have a possibility of having the best record in the West. I just think Utah is probably in the bottom 10ish of places NBA players want to live. Which might balances out the winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I said is that we'll have $19.3M to spend in free agency on a stretch 4, the MLE, and can fill the rest of our bench out with the remainder of the $19.3, any space we free up, and vet minimum guys. And people in the thread are acting like I said we're a free agent desination that's going to land elite star talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your franchise player got out played by Enes Kanter in the playoffs. Lmao. Utah has always been competitive and found a way to acquire at least two marquee players. Hell you guys gave us Donavan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert for Trey Lyles and a pack of chips, thanks for that.

Did Enes Kanter average better than 27/14/8 in that series? Look, I'm gonna take every chance I get to clown Utah. It's not personal. I'm just happy there are some Jazz fans on here.
