So what does this mean for Utah? Do they go deep in the tax with Conley for a team that can't beat Kawhi less Clippers. Ingles and Bogi are not getting any younger. Yet another proof how players without an outside shot or post-up game are a huge liability, no matter how great defense they can play.
I've been much less sure about Utah's willingness to spend than others here. With this result, I'm even less sure. Conley's health is a concern, but I rate him much more highly than Lowry or DeRozan. He's my guy from among the unrestricted crowd. Hollinger glows any time he talks about him, so I suspect he's a fantastic person in addition to a very good player. Give him 3 years to correspond to KP's remaining years. Imagine this team if Conley had soaked up most of the THJ minutes last season.
