Cho is 5 moves ahead.  If we'd have gotten Hayward that was plan A.  Plan B is to force the Jazz to pay him the max so when their up and coming shooting guard Alec Burks is a RFA next year we offer him a big deal and they can't match it.

 

 Yes, your thinking like someone in the front office.  It's not just about this year its about how to hamper the competition next year.

They'll still have 20 m in cap space next off season.

Lol we already did something stupid and that was offer him the max. Can't get much stupider.

It wasn't dumb. Obviously they match a 12 or 13 mil a year offer. So we went for it and with the stipulation that he is here or there. The no trade clause keeps him out of the east. Good move with either outcome.

I do feel sorry for Gordon Hayward, though. Stuck in Utah. Restricted free agents that get matched by teams they don't want to be with are basically being told, "We own you."

He wanted to be in Utah. We were his second choice. They told him to go found an offer and he did. He used us for max money.

You're wrong about him "wanting" to be in Utah.

 

Of course he was trying to get paid, and the Hornets helped him do that. 

 

I think he was resigned to the fact that he would end up back in Utah, but I believe what they were saying in the Bonnell article about how he really wanted to play with Al in Charlotte.

      Coker to IR; Renfrow signed to 53

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      I’m really having a hard time understanding how this actually went down. -Renfrow expected to make roster as 2nd/3rd string. -Panthers cut Renfrow; Keep Brycen Tremayne, and add UDFA receiver (Dalevon Campbell) to active roster.  -Canales/Morgan say it’s totally up to Hunter whether he wants to come back or not, they would love to have him.    -Renfrow not signed to PS -Panthers trade Adam Thielen -Hunter Renfrow signed to active roster with a raise after an injury to Coker nobody heard about and is likely to start.    Our WR room is now: -Xavier Legette (2024 1st round pick) -Tet McMillan (2025 1st round pick) -Hunter Renfrow (1 year out of the league) -David Moore (Canales’ friend? A guy way past his prime) -Jimmy Horn (Likely a Shi Smith reprint, but has potential 2025 6th round pick, weighs 174 lbs) -Brycen Tremayne (2023 UDFA who was on Washington’s PS for 2 years and caught 1 pass for -2 yards and averaged 300 yards per year at Stanford) -Dalevon Campbell (2025 UDFA had a good preseason but had 1463 yards and 3 TDs over 5 college seasons at 3 different schools). What the hell is going on?

      Not uncommon for week 1 games. Especially against good defenses. It’s why I prefer my team play these small schools week 1 if they are going to play them. Gives the offense time to get calibrated.
