What's new

Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

Thanks for suiting up Tinsley. Class act guy and glad he was a Jazzman. Hope he moves into coaching as he seems like he would be good at that.
 
Not so fast on Diante Garrett.

Jazz don't plan to make a quick decision on a new PG, sources said. Rather, work out some prospects with NBA & D-League ties than make call.

Sounds like it could be a few days or longer.
 
His shot looks good. 1-25 I like Jamal but that is embarrassing. Hopefully the Jazz can find some more help for the bench. I see them make another move. I don't think the Millers are too happy with the results of the "rebuild".

I think Lindsay underestimated how bad the team would be so I think the Jazz might end up making another deal after this one. The Jazz want to position themselves for a great lottery pick but they don't want to embarrass the organization while doing it. Up to this point the play has been embarrassing after the first few games.

Now I don't think this guy helps the Jazz that much but he can't be worse than Tinsley's 1-25. Come on Jamal..1-25.
 
Even if it was I think it's defensible. If Tinsley had played at least at last year's level AND mentored the young guys, he would have been fine.

I know Hudson is in China so he isn't available, but where is Machado? If he's unemployed or in the D-league, it's interesting to note that the Jazz STILL didn't pick him up.

The Jazz didn't pick Machado up because he stinks. You could have made a case for Hudson but he isn't really that good either. Garrett has shown some promise but really how much is he going to help. If he can make a few jumpshots a game and dish out a few assists he will help the team. The Jazz need some reinforcement beyond this. No I am not getting impatient with the "rebuild". I just think the Jazz can/should win 20-30 games this season and still be running to get a top 3 pick. (I don't think the Jazz have to get the top pick to have a successful draft).
 
@WojYahooNBA: Free agent point guard Kendall Marshall had been a consideration with Jazz and remains on radar elsewhere, league sources tell Yahoo.

Jazz need a shooter. Marshall is not a shooter but heck maybe the Jazz will get rid of Lucas too.
 
Insider's short article mentions three potential replacements: Diante Garrett, Kendall Marshall and Jimmer Fredette. As I mentioned at the bottom of page three it looks like they will take a few days at least to work this out. A bit different vibe right now than the report that Garrett was a workout away from signing.

Probably just funny timing, but Kendall Marshall complimented Hayward in this tweet last night:
@KButter5 20h
y'all sleepin on Gordon Hayward. he got that GO

Yeah that was my point. Someone asked if it was Corbin's call to pick up Tinsley over Machado or Hudson. My opinion? It doesn't matter much. It's not like Corbin was wrong, i.e. passed up a superior player.
 
My first thread to get stickied here! I feel like I'm becoming part of the family.

Just wait til you get tenure, then you can basically do whatever your want, ala ugli.

Still can't believe he came to the last JazzFanz meeting naked. Can't. Believe it.

It might take a few days? Um, we've got a game tomorrow and as bad as Tinsley was, and he was bad (I mean he was really, really bad) he was still a better option then The Locust. Are you telling me we're suiting up Wednesday with only one PG, and that PG is John Locust the Third?

I have a high tolerance for pain. I understand this team is tanking. I support the tank. But please don't make me watch 39 minutes of Lucas. You gotta bring someone in, quick!
 
Send Lucas packing too, please!
Bring in Jimmer and/or Kendall Marshall.
at least try something.
Jimmer would sell Jazz gear.
 
Whoever they bring in will be better than Lucas. Lucas may be the worst point guard the Jazz have ever had, and that is saying something.
 
Jimmer is a little easier said then done. We would have to trade for him of course.Sacramento will not give him away. He also is going to be an unrestricted free agent after the season so how much do we want to give up for him?
