Okay, after taking some time to figure all of this out (and using a lot of maths), it’s pretty clear that the Utah Jazz were basically led towards having to get rid of Tibor Pleiss. Not because he’s not a basketball player without value — averaging a double double in the NBA D-League while dropping threes like crazy in the Summer League prove that he is at least worth his salt. In fact, Utah trading Tibor almost has nothing to do with who he is as a person, or the things he brings to the table as a player.
