[QUOTE]Without Hayward, the Jazz would likely struggle to compete for a playoff spot in 2018. [/QUOTE]
No reason they can't make the playoffs without him. See OKC.
[QUOTE]Only time will tell if the Jazz waited too long to surround Hayward with competent veteran pieces capable of pushing the Jazz toward playoff competitiveness.[/QUOTE]
They waited too long regardless.
[QUOTE]Kareem Copeland @kareemcopeland
Shelvin Mack said his offseason focus is on catch and shoot 3s since Snyder's system often has wings with the ball running pick and roll.[/QUOTE]
doubt you are back but you need to work on the 3 ball regardless
[QUOTE]David J. Smith @davidjsmith1232
I think Ingles could continue as the starting SG. Would love to see him be more aggressive. 10 PPG, 4 APG, 4 RPG could be doable.[/QUOTE]
Based on his performance in Oakland I would only want him as an end of the bench vet on the cheap. Doubt he'll come cheap though

Joe Ingles on Hayward: I truly believe he loves it here

David J. Smith @davidjsmith1232
Great words to hear from Jazz fans. And, IMO, Ingles' re-signing would go a long way with Hayward.[/QUOTE]
Hayward will be signed before Ingles unless he makes the all-NBA team abd opts in which seems unlikely. If Hayward wants to leave some money on the table for Hill and Ingles I'm sure that would be welcome.

George Hill said Gordon Hayward's decision will factor into his decision: "He
[QUOTE]Kareem Copeland @kareemcopeland
Joe Johnson didn't really think there was a big need for next year. Bring everyone back and be healthy so roles are more established.[/QUOTE]
Plenty of need from what we just saw in that series. Hayward, Gobert and who?
[QUOTE]Kareem Copeland @kareemcopeland
George Hill, obviously, said Gordon Hayward's decision will influence his this summer. Said they'll be in contact throughout the process.

Hill: The group we have here is more than enough[/QUOTE]
Sounds like Hayward, Hill and Ingles could be a package deal. Doubt Boston or anyone else can offer that
[QUOTE]David J. Smith @davidjsmith1232
Johnnie Bryant's role in Hayward's free agency should not be ignored. Hayward success is connected to Bryant's hard work over many years.[/QUOTE]
So was Millsap's but he was told to go! :rant
[QUOTE]David J. Smith @davidjsmith1232
Dennis Lindsey, one of the league's best up-and-coming GMs is also in place for several years. He made moves around GH & RG.[/QUOTE]
Tell me how goo he is now that he doesn't have money and time to play around with anymore!

[QUOTE]Hopefully we can continue to build in the future here and have fun doing it."[/QUOTE]
Sounds like he wants to be here
[QUOTE]"Most of it was they were trying to recommend that I would sit out a lot longer earlier in the season because they thought it would come back if I didn't let it rest right," Hill said. "But I'm hardheaded and wanted to play and took that chance."[/QUOTE]
Cost yourself and the team. :rant
[QUOTE]"The group that I have here," he added, "is more than enough."[/QUOTE]

Favors says he feels 100 percent heading into the offseason, which wasn't the case last year at this time

Tony Jones @tribjazz
Derrick Favors said his top priority this offseason is to get healthy and get back to the player he once was[/QUOTE]
He's 100% but wants to get healthy? Haven't looked 100%
Andy Larsen: Dennis Lindsey will not be available today, because he
[QUOTE]David J. Smith @davidjsmith1232
Boris Diaw had some nice games in the Playoffs. Do you think the Jazz pick-up his $7,5M team option?[/QUOTE]
can't see it
[QUOTE]David J. Smith @davidjsmith1232
Will Alec Burks be on the Jazz roster come training camp?[/QUOTE]
yes. has to show value first
