2022 off season Post Gobert. A new era begins

[QUOTE][h=5]Point guard: Mike Conley, Ochai Agbaji, Jared Butler[/h][/QUOTE]

I think Ochai is a 2. Be nice if he was a 1 with Sexton's game

[QUOTE]I highly doubt Ochai Agbaji will start over Mike Conley, but I think veterans like Stanley Johnson, Malik Beasley, and Rudy Gay will be relegated to the end of the bench in favor of some younger guys.

[/QUOTE]

no sense having Beasley on the team if he's not playing. I have him as the starter once Clakson is gone

Your missing some guys but who cares when you're doing an article on their roster I guess! :facepalm

Udoka/Kessler
Markkanen/Vanderbilt/Johnson
Fontecchio/Alexander-Walker/Bolmaro/Juzang/
Beasley/Horton-Tucker/Agbaji/Sneed
Sexton/Butler

[QUOTE]It’s also worth noting that the Jazz are probably not done making moves. Beasley, Clarkson, Conley, Bogdanovic, and Rudy Gay all have some amount of trade value. As the current roster stands, this is the depth chart, but expect movement and guys like Johnny Juzang to move up from the G-League Stars as the season goes on.

[/QUOTE]

why would we expect a team full of young guys to go to a two way guy unless injuries dictate it? Many guys ahead of Juang right now. 17 guaranteed contracts!

[QUOTE]Their current roster has a lot of scoring potential, and if Kessler can become a solid defender then the Jazz have their blueprint for the future. They need a star, but odds are they’ll find one with their seemingly endless new draft picks.

[/QUOTE]

odds aren't that high. Look at Jazz history. And not all stars are the same. Gobert carried a franchise. Mitchell rode his coattails. Who's the next guy you can build around? Maybe it's someone already here? Always fun to see who rises to the top as Gobert did with Hayward, Kanter, Favors and Burks

[QUOTE]There are few complete teams in the league. Cleveland now has one. The Eastern Conference is stacked, sure, but the Cavaliers should expect to compete for a top-four seed at minimum, and the new-found balance of the roster makes +6000 to win the NBA Finals a steal.

[/QUOTE]

complete with their tiny backcourt?

[QUOTE]I'd argue this roster is a better one than Mitchell ever worked with in Utah, and the Jazz were always among NBA Finals favorites in his time with the franchise.

[/QUOTE]

yeah imagine Gobert with a 4 like Mobley, Millsap or Towns :cry:

[QUOTE] Following the departure of Donovan Mitchell, many around the league are anticipating the Jazz looking to move Jordan Clarkson, Bojan Bogdanovic and/or Mike Conley before the trade deadline. [URL="https://www.si.com/fannation/nba/fastbreak/news/inside-donovan-mitchell-trade-negotiations-cavaliers-jazz-knicks-lakers-nba-news-rumors-brett-siegels-scoop"]Clarkson has generated the most interest thus far with the Memphis Grizzlies, Milwaukee Bucks, Sacramento Kings and Toronto Raptors said to be teams with initial interest[/URL] following Rudy Gobert’s departure earlier this offseason, sources told Fastbreak.

[/QUOTE]

Good! Clarkson needs to go the most. You forgot Gay!

Along with Barrett, the Knicks had offered up former first-round pick Obi Toppin, Evan Fournier and two unprotected first-round picks, along with a couple of other protected picks and swaps, those sources added. [URL="https://www.si.com/fannation/nba/fastbreak/news/inside-donovan-mitchell-trade-negotiations-cavaliers-jazz-knicks-lakers-nba-news-rumors-brett-siegels-scoop"]Utah was looking for at least three unprotected first-round picks and had been consistently asking for four first-round picks from New York[/URL].

Charlotte Hornets: While they did make a competitive offer for Donovan Mitchell that drew some interest within Utah’s front-office, according to a league source, the Charlotte Hornets find themselves where they have been all offseason long – trying to find ways to move forward and be a competitive team in the Eastern Conference.

Michael Scotto: Let’s start by looking at this for the Cavaliers that left. Ideally, [URL="https://*********.com/lists/cavaliers-rumors-donovan-mitchell-kevin-love-caris-levert-ricky-rubio-lebron-james/"]Collin Sexton’s camp wanted $20 million annually. Getting $18 million annually is a win overall for a guy that missed most of last season with a torn meniscus. From what I heard, Cleveland was not willing to go above the luxury tax or move assets like a draft pick[/URL] of some kind to shed Cedi Osman’s salary theoretically to pay Sexton closer to that $18 million annual range. In the end, with Sexton prepared to take the qualifying offer for this season and unrestricted free agency looming next summer, Cleveland didn’t want to lose him for nothing. By including Sexton in the Donovan Mitchell trade, it worked out well for both slides.

[QUOTE]Ideally, the Jazz find themselves in a situation similar to Boston in 2017 where they have once again established themselves as a bonified playoff team by 2026, while the Cavaliers or Timberwolves have fallen to the dregs of the NBA, and an already winning roster in Utah can add another player from high in the lottery in a draft swap.

[/QUOTE]

not likely

[url]https://thejnotes.com/2022/09/05/utah-jazz-five-players-still-traded/[/url]

[QUOTE]A 35% three-point shooter, he has improved slightly over the last five seasons and is a reasonable spot up forward who can still bang around in the paint. On a contender, he would have a role off the bench.

[/QUOTE]

they'll hope he has a role. Last season was disappointing. Two more years on his deal. Good luck!

[QUOTE]His value isn’t super high, but this is what I envision a trade looking like. The trade would have to happen after October 10th, since Gallinari is a recently signed player, but by taking an injured Gallinari, the Jazz manages to get a first-round pick for a player who might not be worth it.

[/QUOTE]

that would be nice. Gallanari only a one year deal?

[QUOTE]Rosas was hired by the Knicks as a consultant in February, but took control of the Mitchell talks due to his relationship with Zanik. The Minnesota Timberwolves parted ways with Rosas last September.

[/QUOTE]

no one likes Danny? I hope he starts having some fun at least!

Two weeks ago, Bosnia and Herzegovina got a great 96-90 victory against France in the 2023 FIBA World Cup European Qualifiers.

come on Danny someone else is having all the fun!

[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;14657783]Good! Clarkson needs to go the most. You forgot Gay![/QUOTE]

I'd of thought Gay would be appealing to a few veteran teams, places like Miami, LA (both teams), Philly, Boston etc. Guess it depends on how washed up teams think he is.

I think he has something left. He looked good his last few games Juancho was just a lot better fit
