Oooh I like this for Denver.

Would make his dead cap hit something like $10,651,561.

30 teams and nobody can give me something to do with my spreadsheets tonight??

Here's where the Jazz sit after recent transactions in terms of draft stash: 8-11 1sts in the next 7 drafts.

This appears to be a good time to be holding some centers.

If he in fact takes a full buyout, then Denver's trade is just a Saric salary-dump, which by itself is pretty important. They still need a backup C, tho. Also, JV is turning down $10.4M in a single season to play for $12M over 3. So he must really like the situation over there.

I almost quote tweeted my answer to this and then realized who I would have put last and I'm not ready to spend the night defending that position, lol.

Would have been nice to get more than a 2nd for John, but in aggregate, Utah did well here: they turned Rudy Gay and a fake 2nd into a real asset, and in the meantime got two years' worth of a player who helped them their ecosystem make sense. Plus, a 26.6M TPE could matter.

And btw, in order for Utah to generate the full 26.6M, that means they're likely absorbing Slo-Mo and Love into their non-tax MLE, which is a smart way to manage the exceptions; if you have a choice, always create a bigger exception that you can use for longer.

Kessler-Filp-Nurk Markkanen-Hendricks-KJ(NG)-Love(?) Sensabaugh-SloMo(?)-Svi Ace-Key-Williams Collier-Clayton-Springer(NG) Two-ways: Harkless-Luis-?? (Tshiebwe QO out, Crowl exhibit 10) Looks like nobody will be able to complain about not seeing the young guys play.

Oh man, Ken Clayton and I missed the opportunity to host a live event in tuxedos this week in SLC.

"You can't just put five feral creatures on the court and expect quality development curves." Good stuff from Mark on the Collins trade, the resulting veteran landscape, and of course summer league fun.

It’s pretty impressive to realize that if you liked the Jazz and followed the team even a little, there’s a good chance you got to meet Frank Layden at some point along the way. He was always out in the community, always involved in great causes, and always had time to talk.

Jazz schedule for LVSL: vs. Charlotte 7/11 5pm (Kon! McNeely!) vs. GSW 7/13 8pm (umm... Marques Bolden?) vs. SAS 7/14 6:30pm (Dylan Harper! Carter Bryant!) vs. Was 7/16 8pm (Tre Johnson! Will Riley!) TBD 7/18-7/20 playoffs & consolation round

I’ve always been in lockstep with dan c. on Lauri & this article perfectly encapsulates what I shout into the void on this app when some of our fans say we HAVE to trade him. Great article.
