    With 8 days left, SPEAKING THE #1 PICK INTO EXISTENCE!!! No churro talk allowed

    It’s all about context when we talk about the Jazz winning too many games and probably costing themselves a shot at Victor in the process. If the Jazz were winning games with a patchwork of mediocre veterans, all in the name of fighting for a play-in spot, last season would have been brutally...

    Don’t be jelly.

    Holy Necro-Post Batman! I’m just excited to see Trout’s still alive. Now that that’s outta the way, can we all agree that Zach Wilson sucks?? I hear his little brother (4 star QB) might actually choose Utah and I shudder at the possibility of seeing Lisa Wilson back in Utah gear…

    The Inevitable Dillon Brooks Thread

    This is as good of a post that you’ll see on this forum. Lots of good work on this one.

    The Inevitable Dillon Brooks Thread

    There’s just not enough upside here to take a stab at it. History has shown that if you’re gonna take a chance on a loose cannon, they better bring at least 1 elite skill set to the table. Perfect example: Rodman was the best rebounder of his era, which helped make his sideshow tolerable. What...

    Rudy Gobert, model teammate?

    I like to pretend that I’m reading haikus when I read your posts. It’s fun.

    Jaylen Brown

    Like many Jazz fans, I want to believe this could work because I see Brown as a damn near perfect fit, but regardless of how much some of our fans and owner don’t want to believe it, Utah is in no way, shape, or form a place that a guy is is gonna feel comfortable living in if he feels...

    New Arena in Draper? (Old State Prison Site)

    Yup, I live in a town called Uintah. It’s up on the side of the mountain just north of the mouth of Weber Canyon. Right now, it’s super easy to hit Hwy 89 and get to Vivint in 25 minutes if traffic is light. Now that I think about it, the Jazz moving to the point of the mountain would be more...

    New Arena in Draper? (Old State Prison Site)

    I’m not sure if we’re misunderstanding each other but I pretty much agree with you. Everybody that lives in SLC and Utah County are probably happy as hell to see a new arena at the point of the mountain. It pretty much doesn’t change anything for these people. But if they make that move, now...

    New Arena in Draper? (Old State Prison Site)

    I’m sure most Jazz fans will feel that way considering a large segment live close to that area already. Living up north, it’s gonna pretty much double the distance I have to go to attend a Jazz game. I think that will affect a lot of the Weber and Davis county Jazz fans especially when the...

    New Arena in Draper? (Old State Prison Site)

    I’m surprised this isn’t more of a hotter topic in here than it currently is. I was extremely Pro-Ryan Smith when he purchased the Jazz, but I’m now at the point where I miss the Miller’s. Our uniforms are a laughingstock and the idea of moving the Jazz out of SLC is blasphemous. I live in...

    Honestly, why are we winning games at this point?

    I understood it at the beginning of the season, but honestly at this point, I can’t fathom why a Jazz fan would be looking down on wins like the one we had last night. With how things have unfolded, it’s pretty clear that the Jazz are already light years ahead on this rebuild and it’s pretty...

    A few thoughts on this season...

    My thoughts: I am utterly stunned to be sitting here in late March, seeing that as of today there is only a 1 game difference between us and Minnesota and if the season ended right now, we’d have 2 lottery picks. The day that trade was made signaled the day that the Jazz were gutting the...

    Hawks want Quin

    You give Quin the absolute power of head coach and president of basketball operations and no prostitute in the entire Atlanta metro area will be safe. The city will suffer through a massive coke shortage as well.

    Has Danny Ainge made Utah a mainstream team?

    Since the rise of Stockton and Malone, Jazz fans have always cared way too much about how the team and the market are perceived nationally, which has led to a massive inferiority complex. I can certainly admit that I carried that complex growing up as a Jazz fan. I was too sensitive to what...

    On the record...

    Probably what excited me the most once the Gobert and Mitchell deals were done is the fact that it’s not super uncommon from year to year to see a team we all think should be contending start to underachieve. Not only that, once the wheels start to come off, you see these teams get a little more...

    This jazz team is going to be an absolute abomination.

    This. I think Jazz fans should be happy with an extremely young team playing with intensity and effort. I’m not gonna freak out if this team ends up “winning to much” as that should be seen as a really positive sign. Obviously the higher the draft picks, the better but the NBA is littered...

    Wolves or Cavs? During Utah rebuild which team will you be rooting for?

    The very second the Rudy and Donovan deals were consummated, the Utah Jazz began having a vested interest in both teams failing. Short of wishing injury upon Rudy or Donovan, I hope just about everything that can go wrong does. When Rudy was traded, I was a little surprised by some of the...

    Sign Jordan Clarkson to a lifetime contract!

    JC just tweeted this this morning. I’m sorry, but with everything that’s gone down this summer, this hit me right in the feels. I understand that Gobert wanted to stay here his entire career, and while the package we got in return from Minny was astounding, sending him away was pretty tough to...

    Minority stake in Smith Entertainment Group sold to Arctos; goal for 3rd Utah pro sports team.

    Attendance for an NFL team in SLC would easily sell out a 60-70k seat stadium every week. However, there’s 3 reasons it will never happen: 1- Cost. The Denver Broncos just sold for $4 billion. The NFL would probably set a franchise fee just north of that figure. Even though Ryan Smith is a...

    Jazz and Knicks discussing Donovan Mitchell trade per Shams Charania and Tony Jones

    Am I wrong in saying that while the Jazz can’t officially trade any package of players acquired in the Rudy deal before September 6th, they could still announce that they’ve agreed in principle to trade Donovan to NY in a deal that won’t become official until September 6th?
