    I'm convinced, bring in Mejri

    Good to hear; I liked him in the first couple Summer League games, but then he didn't get on the floor after that; I assumed he had an injury. Only thing I DIDN'T like was his Andre Kirilenko imitation trying to dribble thru traffic. At 7'1", just keep the ball HIGH, dude... LOL; maybe KoC...

    Magic name their new coach...

    Didn't realize Vaughn had been an assistant that long. I actually thought Shaw was a shoe-in with the Magic...

    CJ Miles?

    Geeez, even JASON COLLINS got picked up... by the Celtics...

    Another Williams?

    Derrick Williams is a younger, less skilled basketball-wise, more athletic version of Paul Millsap. Not sure how that trade would make us better as a team...

    Magic name their new coach...

    https://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/8208615/orlando-magic-tap-ex-spurs-assistant-jacque-vaughn-head-coach Wow; better than Hornacek, eh:confused:

    Excluding injuries, what would be the most DISAPPOINTING occurance this coming season?

    For me, it would be Favors failing once again to beat out Millsap for the starting PF slot.

    Another Williams?

    Funny, I was looking into his situation a couple days ago. Can't figure out just WHAT he'd do for us, and sure don't want to give up much to get him...

    Josh Howard?

    Thing is, now that we have Marvin, there's NO team gonna give him a starting role, at least not in the NBA...

    CJ Miles?

    Him and his agent are geting a much better idea just how much CJ is REALLY worth...

    Josh Howard?

    While we all love Carroll's energy on D and the boards, he is way more a liability than Howard on ofense. If Howard comes cheap, I'd go for him before CJ, for instance...

    Darko?

    Hmmmm. I've read Jefferson is 6'10" and Kanter 6'9". And neither of them has a reach to brag about. Darko has been listed as 7'0", with better reach. He was amnestied weeks ago, and apparently nobody put in a bid. I wouldn't use him except to defend some of the NBA's bigger scoring C's, and he's...

    Darko?

    He'd be a lot better option than Fes for a 3rd big, which I'm hopin' we get. He's got a lot more skill, a 7-footer who can block shots and has a decent jump shot. In a structured system like the Jazz, maybe he'd develop more consistancy...

    Millsap Happy With Jazz Offseason So Far

    Yep, that second unit is unquestionably our strength. Other teams with big-name first unit stars are not likely to often be outplayed for long stretches by our first unit no matter WHO among our current roster starts. It's when we come in with that 2nd unit when we can make hay. Either the...

    Millsap Happy With Jazz Offseason So Far

    Favors has indicated in the past his dislike for the C position, as he's a tad lightweight for it. His strength is his mobility and agility, not his power. Remember towards the end of the season when we used Jefferson, Favors, AND Millsap together it was FAVORS who ran out to cover 3-point...

    Millsap Happy With Jazz Offseason So Far

    Ditto, BUT ONLY if Favors EARNS the promotion to starting PF in TC & pre-season. Last season, it appeared to be handed to him based on perceived potential once the season started. I have to wonder if that's what bothered Millsap most...

    AK signing with Utah?

    Too Funny, MoTown! Hopefully KoC learned his lesson regarding overpaying on AK's first go-round in SLC, back when AK actually HAD the potential to eventually be worth it...

    Could KoC be planning to keep 15 this year?

    Given his marching orders to be aggressive in free agency this year, I see that as a possibility. I'm not particularily in favor of resigning AK, but he is/was a better all-round player than either Josh Howard or DeMarre Carroll. If the $$$ are good, I'd do it... Then if Fes has...

    Summary of emerging off-season news

    Fun-ny. AK as shrunk a bit...

    "In retrospect, King won the Williams' trade in a landslide."

    Exactly why we HAD to trade DWill. That trade enabled us to rebuilt far more quickly, and it was getting obvious w/o going into FA frenzy we were NOT going deep into the playoffs even WITH DWill. That trade was a rare opportunity, and KoC recognized that...

    Ric Bucher reporting Jazz have signed Randy Foye to a 1-year deal

    As a SG, I wondered WHY he'd come here, with our depth. I didn't know he could play PG, so now it makes sense. Our biggest weakness, IMO, was 3 munchkin-size PG's. If Foye can defend the PG position well, good move!
