Dennis Lindsey and the Utah Jazz have done a fantastic job over the last two off-seasons to ensure the team has maximum flexibility going forward. All of that hard work is likely going to come to a head during the 2019 NBA off-season.

Not being all in is doing a fantastic job?

One of the primary reasons I am confident the Jazz will make the playoffs this year is because of internal growth and continuity in the roster. By simply running it back from last year, they are putting themselves in a great spot to succeed.

If your idea of success is the playoffs. They weren't that far from being out of the playoffs last year. Their goal should be to step it up though

The Jazz have signed contracts to ensure that they have maximum flexibility heading into this next off-season. After the 2018-19 campaign, Derrick Favors, Ricky Rubio, Alec Burks, Thabo Sefolosha, Ekpe Udoh and Raul Neto could all be off the team. The odds of every one of those players being gone is slim, but the chance is still there.

At least 4 of them could have been gone this year but aren't despite the coach not being a huge fan of any of them. Not hard to see all of them being gone by next year. Hard to imagine Neto, Burks, Thabo or Udoh being back though. Why would they be?

As much as we all love Derrick Favors, it is not likely that he will ever be able to shoot the three ball even above 35 percent. Price wise, I would expect Mirotic to garner no more than 15 million or so annually on his next contract. If the Jazz are ready to move on from a traditional two-big lineup, Mirotic is one of the best options out there.

Be lucky if he shoots 25%. Be interesting to see how the minutes play out between him and Randle this year

My main concern is with Ricky Rubio.

Me too. Exum, Favors, COTy and the Wizard are big worries as well!

No player on the Jazz roster had a larger bell curve than Rubio last season. There were stretches over the first few months of last season where it really felt like the Jazz were going to be forced to bench the Spanish star, and it appeared that they would have to trade him for ten cents on the dollar.

Who would have taken him?
