I don't understand how it's possible. JazzFanz told me they drafted Booker who is so much better than Lyles. Or were they wrong ?

Absolutely not. If anything, it seems Lyles has the better potential right now. He does so much more than Booker. Booker is a shooter and that's all. I'm pretty sure Lyles will be the better player overall.

I'd really like to see them in playoffs but between the never ending flow of injuries (now Hayward and Burks) and teams helping our opponents by sitting out their stars, it will be kinda hard.

Advanced stats show Gobert's real impact. He's #1 in the NBA in Defensive Box Plus Minus : https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2016_leaders.html?lid=header_leaders Defensive Box Plus/Minus 1. Rudy Gobert ▪ UTA 4.6 2. Hassan Whiteside ▪ MIA 4.0 3. Draymond Green ▪ GSW 3.8 4...

Rudy is #1 in DBPM in the whole NBA. You could argue either way it's pretty close between the Greak Freak and him. Now if he was also an offensive threat then it wouldn't even be close...

They didn't draft Booker because they thought Lyles would be the better player later. Jury's still out but they're probably right.

I'm not sure Booker will be a better player than Lyles on the long run. Booker will probably stay only a good shooter and not much else. What you see now is what you'll get. Lyles probably has a better potential.

He's a lot better than Kanter, yes nothing has changed. Do you still think Kanter is great now that he sleeps on OKC bench and plays 10 mpg ?

I laugh at the drama after 2 or 3 bad games. Gobert still is among the best in the league defensively according to advanced stats...

Lol. Kinda disappointed when you first heard about Jeff Teague but I guess it's better than nothing : / Pros : Mack has size and a good PER (on few minutes though). He's cheap. We can keep it for cheap or just let him walk next year. We don't care about a 2nd round pick. Cons : Everything...

Man it's getting too fast I just can't remember all those trades the Jazz just made. Anobody for a summary ? Come on, at least get a veteran PG to help the team.

I suspect Ty Lawson just didn't want to play here.

I actually like the idea. Lawson was a pretty good player (nearly 15 ppg / 10 apg guy) when he was traded to Houston. If they're right and it was just about system and chemistry then you just got a pretty good veteran PG for free. A low risk buy low move. It doesn't work you just cut him. He...

Yeah it's boring. Please ban this troll.

There won't be any trade then and Teague will leave Hawks for free. Nobody will pay a lot for a one year rental of a good but not great PG who's past his prime...

I can't believe you compare Burke to Hill, Hill actually defends pretty well. Apple and orange... The main problem with Burke is his defense is terrible.

Maybe it's a 3 team trade. That would make more sense since Atlanta is looking for a wing, not a PG : Atl out : Teague, in : Burks Jazz out : Burks, in : Hill Indiana out : Hill, in : Teague

I'd say Burke + 1st round pick or Burke + Booker + 1st for Teague. If Hawks still don't agree, maybe Burke + Burks, we need a great PG since we have great players at every position outside PG. Then give another 1st or maybe 2 second round picks for Lauvergne. He doesn't play a lot in Denver but...

Burks for Teague isn't happening. DL isn't crazy, Teague isn't worth it.

Teague only makes sense if it's cheap like Burke + a pick. No way they should give Burks for a 1 year rental (they'll never do it anyway). Plus, Teague's stats are down and he doesn't defend that well. The team already has its PG, it's Exum. I don't think a trade will happen, unless Atlanta is...
