The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

Less than a week from when I predicted the good behavior will stop, it has stopped. Sources close to Harden tell that this is gonna escalate fast if nothing is done. However discussing Harden is not the point here.

Terance Mann is the point.

Sixers reportedly have trades "lined up" to get them a FRP for Mann so they can pursue other guys, and the question is who do you guys think the teams are? Do you think we are involved in this some way? Mann isnt the lead guard we are looking for, but he is better defender than almost any of our guards and imo he could be a better fit next to George than anyone we have, assuming George is the PG we are looking for.
Based on the way the rumors were positioned I think we very well might be involved. Mann would be a great get. I also threw out the idea of providing the Lakers pick for super swaps in 27 and 29 with the clips. We have so much stuff I think we are always in the big conversations… maybe as a side piece but teams likely keep us in the loop.
 
The heats ability to find undrafted diamonds is crazy. Jamal Cain looks like he has all nba defense type of potential. They may also have another one is Cole Swider who has shot the hell out of the ball this preseason.
 
It has been good to see Jonathan Isaac play again. It's crazy how active he is on defense, basically trying to contest every shot.

He reminds me of Hendricks with how long he is and how he moves, but right now Hendricks is the exact opposite of him as far as being aggressive.

I think Hendricks is being held back right now because he basically doesn't know what he's doing. The athleticism should be there.
 
Ausar is great because he can do a little bit of everything. He can play on ball/off ball, is switchable on defense and his shot still has a ways to go, but is looking so much better.

I've already eaten my crow about Ausar and now I'm a huge fan. I love the way he plays.
 
Tony Bradley signed with the Mavs today, Elijah Hughes signed with the Bucks and D Favors was signed and released by the Bulls. It appears the GLeague is in all their futures.

Giving me a ton of Iggy vibes. I didn't know what to make of the Twins and OTE, but they've definitely got some game. Though it's worth noting they were two of the older prospects in the lottery.
 
Not super interesting, but he was the 2019 pick we sent to Memphis in the Mike Conley trade (the other pick we sent became Kessler)


He was also supposed to be the Stars’ #1 pick, back when they had the #1 pick, and back when he was gonna do the G League. I can’t remember who the Stars ended up picking. I think it was someone who already played in the league.
