That’s certainly a valid worry. I realize we’re just 1 season in to the Will Hardy experience, but so far he’s proven to be very adept at carving out a good role for players that can easily be a chucker on any given night, see: Clarkson.

I absolutely believe that this is Ainge’s way of thinking. Things have already started going sideways in Dallas with their horrid performance after adding Kyrie. If Kyrie re-ups with the Mavs, I could easily see their dysfunction being the NBA’s lead story by November. Plus, I don’t see Luka as...

Last night I read something that absolutely blew my mind. If Clarkson had opted out and signed elsewhere, or ends up getting moved in a trade, Walker Freakin’ Kessler would then become the longest tenured Jazz man. That is utterly astonishing. In my last post I hailed Ainge’s skills for roster...

Almost exactly 1 year after blowing up their roster and shipping off their 2 franchise cornerstones, the Utah Jazz are already dangerously close to fielding a 50 win team and still have a **** ton of future assets. I was adamantly against the Danny Ainge hiring and I have no choice but to...

I realize that we all have access to the Jazz cap info and can see what’s going on, but without reading through it and doing the homework I feel completely confident in saying that in no way, shape, or form would Danny Ainge jeopardize Lauri’s next contract with the organization in favor of John...

This is so accurate and concise, it’s basically poetry. Couldn’t have put it better!!

I can understand liking or not liking the Collins trade as there is certainly a lot of data/factors that can be swung in either direction to make your opinion work, but for the life of me, I can’t understand the “why did we draft Hendricks if we were just gonna turn around and trade for Collins”...

My bad. Sometimes I forget that the internet sports message board game is serious business. I apologize for cluttering up this thread.

I blame the OP. The Jazz are sitting on 3 first round picks, an absolute treasure trove of assets, a few players currently on the roster that should move the needle with quite a few teams across the league and he asks us to choose just ONE?? That **** is just cruel and unusual. That’s like...

Calling Dick “Hayward 1.5” made me chuckle so hard, I just spit out my Pepsi. Like, dude can’t even get the 2.0 comparison. Well done to you sir!!

My explanation will be a bit long, but here we go: I think we see the Jazz move up not once, but TWICE. Every single thing I’ve read about the 2024 draft is how awful it’s going to be. Couple that with the fact that next year, we probably won’t have a 1st rounder as it’s pretty unlikely IMO...

There’s a narrative out there that the Grizz have fared well with Ja out of the lineup, but context matters and the 25 game suspension he faces to begin next season is definitely enough to derail their season. Last year, you had Ja playing in 61 games while he missed time during his...

Not sure where you got those numbers, but last season, Beal averaged 5.4 assists, which doesn’t qualify for “almost 7” in my book while Booker averaged 5.5 which I guess qualifies for “almost 6”. Beal turns 30 before the season starts and has a career average of 4.3 assists per while Booker...

I’ve been asking myself the same thing and I think there’s only logical answer: The Suns new owner is an idiot who simply doesn’t care about the new CBA rules and is hell bent on making a major splash in hopes that it propels Phoenix to the finals early on in his ownership. I think this move...

Well played sir!! Wemby is my #1 and that’s as far as I’ve gotten. He’s the best Center prospect I’ve seen enter the draft since Luther Wright.

It would be nice to pipe dream Zion to Utah but it just won’t ever happen. It’s too bad though, I’m sure the league office would be thrilled to see Zion land in Utah as he tries to cut all of the negative out of his life while rehabbing his image. Even if the Pels, Jazz, and Zion we’re all...

This is a bit off topic, but seems like as good of a place as any to stick this rant: I absolutely LOVE going over this thread each and every day because it never fails to make me chuckle and remind me that my current favorite sports trend is your run-of-the-mill sports fan (all sports fans...

I mean no disrespect to the OP of this thread, but this is about as silly of a question you could possibly ask at this point. It’s May. The NBA season isn’t even officially over yet, we have yet to see what the Jazz will do with their 3 first round draft picks, and quite frankly, at this point...

I agree with this, his trade value is at an all-time low and probably the only reason Memphis wouldn’t look to trade him now as their best option is hoping that the lightbulb finally turns on for this kid. That being said, after the hauls DA got in the Gobert and Mitchell deals, we’ve all...

I really hesitated to post this thought due to the fact I’m definitely gonna get flamed. Then I remembered that I don’t give a ****. So I’ll go ahead and ask the question without even knowing the answer myself: In the wake of losing the Victor sweepstakes, would trading for Ja Morant be a...
