I actually could have just typed this instead of my entire OP. Well done.

Borrow from Radiohead? Don't mind if I do. I'm amazed at the level of disbelief that the Jazz are losing like they are or the insistence that Ty be fired now. HOW IS ANY OF THE STATUS QUO SURPRISING? I would imagine that we all knew, going into this season, that the Jazz were going to be bad...

I also think that drafting Jabari because he's Mormon would be a mistake. If I had meant to say that, my post would have been much shorter. Perhaps something like "The Jazz should draft Jabari Parker because he's Mormon." My main purpose in even mentioning his religion is to make the point that...

You assume too much. First of all, I am not Mormon -- even one iota. Never lived in Utah either. I just happen to love the Jazz. I was not making any of the claims that you pointed to. I just know how appreciative the Utah fans are (who are largely Mormon) and Parker being a Mormon and seemingly...

Obviously, a flat out tank is the first part of any discussion involving Parker, or Wiggins, for that matter. You find a way to get that top 2 pick and take Jabari Parker. Though Wiggins is an excellent talent and I don't doubt that he will be a superstar, if you're Utah, your pick is Parker. If...

Waive John Lucas while you're at it: chucker. Bring back Scott Machado if he's still available. Kendall Marshall deserves a look, if only for his distributing ability -- which we desperately need right now. And no, we're not above signing waived players. And Jimmer would put some asses in the...

Ugh. I thought this thread was going to posit that a behind-the-scenes group of hardcore Jazz fans made sure that Big Al and his questionable defense landed on Jordan's team to ensure their mediocrity going forward in retribution for Jordan pushing off of Bryon Russell to hit that game winner in...

Didn't somebody at one point say "Stifle Tower"? That's my vote.

Having seen almost all of the Jazz Summer League games, I had some thoughts. [Warning: article length. Be scurred.] 1. Obviously, Trey Burke was less than impressive. He did have some moments, but overall was a dud. To be honest, of most concern to me was not his pitiful shooting -- sometimes...

Even bolder starting lineup prediction: PG: John Crotty SG: Devin Brown SF: Jamie Watson PF: Scott Padgett C: Felton Spencer Ringz in 2014. Boom

I believe Jimmer would be a good pickup for the Jazz this season (assuming the asking price isn't exorbitant). Consider: 1. He would be BACKING UP a good passer in Trey Burke. Jimmer wouldn't necessarily need to distribute all that much to be effective in a role where he came off the bench. 2...

I apologize if some of this has already been brought up in the myriad posts that we excited Jazz fans have made in the last week and a half or so. Here goes: 1. The Jazz's draft and subsequent trade with Golden State really do put us in a great position to establish our core, let them play...

Wow, this thread went in a completely different direction than I thought it would.

The only question is now that Raja Bell, CJ, and Al are gone, who are the haters going to hate on next?

Wow. Kudos on this very promising thread boys.

When did basketball players turn into NFL running backs? People guaranteeing Paul will be washed up in two years? Come on. He has an insane work ethic and is quite a good player. I do agree that bringing him off the bench is the way to go but I'm amazed at how people assume that the core 5 will...

I look at this draft and the #14 & 21 picks that we had and all I can think is that, had we pulled the trigger on those picks, I would've felt the same way I've often felt when the Jazz had picks just like that: "Ehhh. I guess they'll be good." I'm glad I don't have to feel like that this year...

Wellllllll apparently none of the perfect people on this board have ever had a slip of the tongue before. I will now bow and do you homage

If the source were from Best Buy, this post would have more credibility.

Um...you guys are forgetting about Ike Austin.
