    Let’s discuss Joe Ingles

    What Joe needs is rest. He's not an 82 game / 30 mins starter. With Utah's depth, Joe needs to be restricted to 25 mins and maybe rested on the 2nd night of back-to-backs. j

    Skylar Richardson Trial

    Guilty of abuse of a corpse, but not murder or manslaughter.

    Trevor Booker

    Good gawd, why this fascination with scrubs? It's like wistfully thinking about that beautiful girl you liked in HS, then going to your 10 yr reunion to see she has ballooned to 200 lbs. Trevor Booker shot 24% on his 3's last year. Seriously, we think this is a player who could ever step in and...

    Utah Jazz Players in the FIBA World Cup(in China)

    I'm not worried a bit about our PG situation behind Conley. Mitchell is essentially our backup PG and Ingles distributes when he's in the game. What we need to find out is if Royce has developed into good backup SG.

    Popeyes Chicken Sandwich

    So has Popeye's resupplied their stores with chicken sandwiches? I'd like to try one but don't feel like driving out of my way to a Popeye's if I can't get one. I tried their chicken in the past and it was worse than KFC - also their sides. Absolutely horrible. I ended up throwing everything...

    Wednesday 9/11 FIBA game thread

    I knew size was going to matter at some point. Lopez and Turner combined for 2 points while Gobert had a scoring explosion. At least Donovan had a good game. Rudy moves on. Hoping Joe will, too. That Rubio guy, though. MVP to date, IMO. Any chance we can trade for him? USA plays Serbia in...

    He's the Shams Charania of the GLeague.

    Happy birthday to Donovan

    That's assuming US makes the Final. I'm not sure they do. With apologies to Rudy, I'm hoping Australia defeats France. France is a perennial contender. But this may be the Boomers best shot at a top-3 finish. If Rudy were to lose to Joe and then Donovan...

    Wow...Spain over Serbia by 12. I thought Serbia was the best team in the World Cup. Good for Rubio - must be the shoes!

    Comparing Kemba and Mike Conley

    It's temporary. GS will trade DLo as soon as they get a good offer.Nice that GS could get something in return for a player leaving in free agency.

    Happy birthday to Donovan

    He'll leave the Jazz in a New York minute when he gets the chance.

    Yes, I agree he hit the rim. But the ball was already off. I don't think it was a goal tend. Was it a violation? That's my question. What is the Euro rule? Assuming the rim was hit in the process of rebounding - and not interfering with a shot - what is the rule? Maybe that's what the refs saw...

    2019 Annual Jazzfanz Current Players NBA Draft - Round 1, Match 5 - Saint Cy of JFC vs Ellis269

    This is what it came down to for me. I don't see Kemba co-existing with Westbrook. Russell isn't going to want to stand in the corner when Walker has the ball. But I agree on Randle/Nance at the 5. Have to go with Cy.

    If no other player touches it (for example a tip-in attempt), wouldn't it still be a free throw? I'm not being biased because it's Rudy, but aren't FIBA rules different in that you can take the ball off the rim? Watching this closely, I think the FT bounces up, then hits the rim on the right...

    IINM, USA has pretty much clinched first place in their 2nd round group, if what I found re: tiebreakers is correct. There could be a 3-way tie if US loses to Brazil and Czech Republic defeats Greece. Or a two-way tie if Brazil wins and Czech Rep loses. However, the tiebreaker doesn't include...

    France - Australia on Monday. That should be fun.

    Comparing Kemba and Mike Conley

    I sure hope so. Watching Kemba paired up with Donovan is painful. Mitchell goes for several possessions without touching the ball, being banished to the corner.

    Cousins and Lyles

    Glad to hear. Wondering where they were going to play was causing me to lose sleep.

    Props to Pops

    Pops is old school. It's the same in every sport - GM's have an unwritten rule not to trade a player within the same division or conference. Besides, how do we know what SA wanted? Maybe they didn't like what LA was offering in return. Plus, when you have the inmates running the asylum...
