The Jazz are much worse than I thought

Hear him out dude. Jimmer is not a long term answer at all.. he's not a savior. But if they're going to leave our perimeter players wide open, why not throw in someone that can actually sink a shot?

And at the same time, drive up merchandise sales?

....the Jazz are trying to break the 76er's record of only 8 wins in a season! If they end up with Jimmer....they're going to win 9...maybe 10 games!!!

Exactly. If you know of a dead eye shooter with point guard capability (let's be honest, the level of skill needn't be high to surpass what we currently have) that we can get for peanuts that won't place demand on our cap past this year, I'm all ears. Also, yes, it would put a few thousand more people in the seats per game and help develop our players better. Jimmer needn't be long term. I would suspect that he would work himself into a better long term contract somewhere else after getting gaudy stats from the tank. I just can't handle watching JL3 any longer, tank or no tank.
 
We are pretty bad right now as a whole, but at least I saw a flash of what the future could be.

1st QT of the Nuggets game was exactly what I was hoping for. Hayward was a leader on offense scoring and facilitating. On defense Favors was a beast
blocking shots, altering shots, and grabbing boards. Too bad it didn't last, but you can see the potential is there. We didn't see a lot of that on the road
trip.

Can I get some clark and harris percentages up in here?
 
Outside of Gobert who is raw and sometimes Harris, all the non-Core 4 players have been horrible.

But Ian Clark - holy ****. What were the Jazz thinking when they gave this guy guaranteed money? Because he hit a few open shots in The Summer League? Nothing about this kid says NBA player - nothing.

Maybe he was signed simply to teach Gordon Hayward how to shoot a floater? That is his signature move (at least before he was on an NBA roster).

I didn't think 10,000 B.C. was that bad. No worse than Stargate.
 
The young 4 players are doing fine. The problem is that the team has nothing else, and the young 4 can't load up the bucket with enough points to compensate.

From Lindsey's perspective there's a ton to lose and almost nothing to gain if he opens that can of worms labeled "Jimmer."

Dinner for Schmucks wasn't that bad either really. Now Battlefield Earth. Yurk, what a steaming pile of dung that was.

C4 playing well for the most part. It's the rest of the team talent, that provides 000 relief.

No the C4 really are not playing well either. It is a disjointed load of garbage right now. None of them are making very smart basketball plays, none of them are playing fundamental individual basketball even, none of them are playing team ball. Right now it is the NBA equivalent of the Hindenberg. We are going down in flames.

Record-books here we come!!!
