    Hayward's Recent Stretch

    The CBA FAQ is the gold standard, but it covers the 2011 CBA. The 2017 CBA made changes and additions to the qualification criteria. Here was my breakdown from a couple of months ago on Hayward's options: https://www.ksl.com/?sid=42729511&nid=304

    Andy Larsen Article on Favors

    Wilson Chandler has said he's unhappy with his time in Denver as well, I probably should have mentioned him too. OTOH, he is apparently a flat-earther, so consider that before acquiring him.

    Exum Defense vs Bucks - Video

    Honestly, the worst part is how thoroughly he dies on the screen. He runs smack dab into the skinniest big man in the NBA twice in a row. Like, Delly has made 9 pull-up threes this season. It's not worth trying to go over that screen if it's set right there.

    GT: Goliath @ David Thursday Dec 8, Vivint Smart Home Arena 7:00 PM MT

    Yes.

    Exum needs to play over Mack

    Agreed helping from there is relatively typical, but there's a definite difference between where Johnson is and where Kemba is, all the way on the strong side. The search dribble is fine! Throwing the ball off the top off the backboard isn't. And yeah, that's a tough play to defend...

    Exum needs to play over Mack

    1) SUPER arbitrarily selected cutoff point. Admittedly. But choose any cutoff point with Dante, and it's not great. 2) Agreed small sample on/off numbers aren't reliable as a predictor of long-term future success. But I think they're indicative of Exum's performance so far looking backwards...

    Exum needs to play over Mack

    I don't know if that's true. Let's check! (Note: there's a tiny image below here that you have to click on) It doesn't seem like it's very true.

    remember when our offense looked like this?

    There are two things that stand out to me when I watch this video: A) Man, those guys are playing some primitive defense. No switching, not a lot of fronting, giving a ton of space for the pocket pass on PnR with no help. B) A lot of those plays are run for someone to shoot a 20-footer or...

    Jazz defense, not offense, was the problem in close games?

    Just on this topic, I wrote this big long thing in August: https://www.ksl.com/?sid=41095645&nid=304 (I still like Schuhmann though)

    Jazz wanted Alex Abrines in Kanter trade?

    P.S.: The real missed opportunity in that deadline was Isaiah Thomas.

    Jazz wanted Alex Abrines in Kanter trade?

    Eh, they had no leverage, but neither did the Thunder with Reggie Jackson. It's not like they got back a ton for him either. I suspect OKC would have done a straight Jackson for Kanter swap. I do know the Jazz were never particularly interested in Jackson, as they felt Jackson's lack of shooting...

    Jazz wanted Alex Abrines in Kanter trade?

    FWIW, it was Abrines. We reported it on SCH at the time. Abrines is a better prospect than Tibor, to be sure, but OKC was basically the only team interested in Kanter. The Jazz wanted something in return, as they knew they weren't going to sign him that offseason.

    Luol Deng ends up in Utah (Rumour)

    FWIW, I promise I didn't get this from JazzFanz! (Also, WTH are the first five pages of this thread? This would be the hardest thing to steal in the world.)

    Trey Burke

    Neto/Hood/Hayward/Favors/Gobert: +53 in 299 minutes Mack/Hood/Hayward/Favors/Gobert: +17 in 66 minutes Burke/Hood/Hayward/Favors/Gobert: -23 in 42 minutes I don't really understand why they should choose door number 3.

    What's with Jazz players and Media Free Meals?!?!

    Thoughts on players at media buffets: 1. I think a lot of players from around the league eat the media buffet food, but normally they have a ballboy take their order so they can stay in the locker room and watch film, stretch, whatever. But because of the way the Jazz stretch out their warmups...

    ty lawson to the jazz?

    Trey's agent is his dad. https://twitter.com/Benjib10/status/682819691665076229 https://twitter.com/Benjib10/status/659571682202488832 https://twitter.com/Benjib10/status/659570595118600193 And he liked these tweets: https://twitter.com/AllThatAmar/status/700115594935410689...

    Trade Deadline

    This is not inaccurate. Let's be honest: 65% is definitely a guess, at best an educated guess. But it reflects my belief that the Jazz are likely, but not 100%, to make a trade this deadline. My belief is also backed up with some sourcing, though, like everyone, I don't know everything. But...

    A trade DL should like: Jarnell Stokes

    This is a smart post. But I suspect that Portland or Philly, who can also take on that much salary, would do the deal as well. And so then I suspect that the asking price goes down, and some team (either Utah, Portland, or Philly) ends up doing it for 2 2nd round picks.

    New Logo/Unis next year?

    Announced isn't quite accurate, but I heard about it and reported it... some people in Jazzland were upset I reported it early. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Another French Big?

    OG is Gordon Hayward's nickname. Get it right.
