[QUOTE]During the months of May and June, the Utah Jazz brought in 70 players for pre-draft workouts at the Zions Bank Basketball Center. None of those players happened to be Ian Clark, a 6-foot-3 guard from Belmont University who visited nine other NBA teams for workouts.
Yet Clark was the guy in the purple shirt and striped tie being introduced Monday afternoon as the latest Utah player. Clark was offered

[QUOTE]Zach Lowe: Lots of people around league remain mystified Utah, especially, didn't act more aggressively in pursuing Harden. Twitter @ZachLowe_NBA[/QUOTE]
They don't know Utah and O'Conner was still the GM not Lindsay I believe. Easy to 2nd guess now but giving Harden a max deal was no given with what he'd done thus far. He would be a great fit in the flex. In retrospect I'd probably give up anyone but Kanter for him so they could have definitely offered better prospects but not the guaranteed lottery pick they got..
I was under the impression that OKC wanted picks? If the Jazz offered Favors then they'd be coming into the same situation again where Favors needs an extension, but they're only $5 million under the tax line they don't want to go over. At least in 2-3 years if Lamb and their picks pan out they'll have Perkins gone to free up more $.
True. Burks and picks might have been enough if the Jazz had wanted to do it. Didn't have the guaranteed lottery pick to offer though.

Another team that might need to dump someone on the Jazz. Looks like Ridnour might be the only expiring contract and he can't be traded yet because they just acquired him. Hard to say about guarantees. Some of the young guys maybe could be expiring if you don't pick up their option for next year.
