Slipped over to jazzfanz for some Jazz perspective...


Recommended Posts

They have quite a few threads since the offer was agreed upon.  One of which already with 500+ post.  They're some interesting opinions

 

the highlights:

 

Apparently Jordan is the GM.  Ive seen this for awhile.  Hes often credited/blamed for every decision the team makes.

 

Fans don't want to match.  They pretty much all agree we are over paying and would rather "offer Parsons or Monroe."

 

Every now and then a rational poster comes in a says match the deal as Utah isn't the most desirable landing spot for a player of his caliber through FA.  Build through the draft.

 

A few wouldn't be opposed to a s&t for MKG and/or Vonleh(wtf?)

 

revisiting AK47 quite a bit.  seems like a nightmare over there

 

They are torn as a fan base over the Novak deal already.  Lots of arguments sprouting up over that.

 

A couple posters acknowledge he'd fit better here playing with Jefferson than returning to essentially the identical team which he struggled with at times last year.  They think his best chance to be worth the deal is in charlotte.

 

some have convinced themselves we are the only team that would offer a max deal and Utah should call us stupid and force us to honor the contract. 

 

animosity over "being all about the money"  Sighting Duncan and Dirk deals as taking less for the team.  Some even went as far as saying they will boo him.

 

Nothing ground breaking just found it interesting what the other side is thinking.

I saw where they said Hayward had a bad relationship with "Ty" (guessing that's Burke?). And like you said MJ is in charge of everything and he sucks and that they're still mad about MJ and the Bulls beating the Jazz etc..

Said we were WAY too high on MKG and they would be fine with a MKG + Zeller/Vonleh with possibly a first

If we fuging trade assets and do that shitty contract as well, I'm gonna be really surprised.

From what others have said that can't happen. Language in the contract states he can't be traded this year. Utah would have to match every term of the contract.

We can trade today up until 12 when he signs the offer sheet. Once he's signed it.....it's done. He either plays for us or Utah matches. But up until he signs we can work a S&T

Good! I hope their front office is as smart as them.

Told damn "KKL, WoW, Gay Cowboy", best move is for then to go after Monroe!

After nabbing Vonleh that would have been over kill.

Plus Monroe plays in the same areas as Big Al. So you're not spreading the floor very much for Al to do work.

How do you compare Dirk and Tim Duncan to this...and why would a 24 year old with the means to sign a max contract take less when Utah could easily have had him for substantially less a few months ago?

Plus Dirk and Duncan already got their big deals. Not everybody should be Mother Teresa so that a team can sign a backup shooting guard or avoid the luxury tax.

Also those guys were unrestricted..they can adjust dictate their salaries..Heyward is basically being stolen by cash...it takes a bit more.

No one thinks Heyward would get this offer as an unrestricted FA.

    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "  
    • this one is gold:     Bryce has a cult inside the Panthers fanbase that has truly developed some NPC hivemind. I'll never understand how he's captured the true essence of the casual fan like that.    
    • "everybody has to earn it, heading in the right direction, feel great about him, get it done at the right time"     Mother fuger
