that's not what it sounds like though... it sounds like the jazz only wanted him if he was in uniform on 10/1. which makes absolutely no sense to me. but that's what it sounds like mekel is saying: "Although the lack of an American work permit ruled me out for Utah's training camp, I feel...

i don't like the notion that there's this magic number out there for minutes -- like that favors HAS to play 32. that's not how minute distribution works, especially on a deep team. most teams only have a couple or three guys getting north of 30, and that's ok. 28 minutes is actually a pretty...

i don't see millsap playing a ton of minutes at the 3. i don't think we need him there given our changes on the wings, and i don't think he necessarily makes us better there. hayward will play a lot of SF minutes given that the 3rd and 4th guys in our wing rotation are both small wings and will...

nah, i don't think paul plays a lot of minutes at 3. i don't think he needs to and i don't think he should, except in specific situations. of course, MY solution is to cut back al's minutes, and who knows if that's realistic. i just think we have a lot of talent on the wings now, too, so i...

i guess my point about marvin -- and locke's point, although he didn't do a great job of making it -- is that marvin is probably more capable than we're all giving him credit for. i'm quietly very excited about marvin. don't think he'll be our best player, but i think there will be a couple...

https://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=8318166 here are at least two guys who think paul's proper ranking is top 20.

if he's as good as thorpe says, he probably won't be available next summer. sometimes you have to pounce while a guy is still somewhat under the radar. i think it's a massive bummer if the jazz pass on this guy just because he can't be available until week two of camp. what a waste.

he didn't say it in a negative/weak/down/lack of confidence way at all. locke was basically fishing for him to say that his production was limited by being on an iso team with very little system, and he wouldn't bite. locke tried saying, "i guess i'm just saying after seeing some of your video...

GVC is doing solid work in here, so i don't have too much to say on that portion of the thread other than "yeah, what he said." as far as paul's asking price... i'm not 100% sure it will take 12M to get him, but even if it does, i would SOOOOO rather pay paul 12M than jefferson 15M.

marvin - my role is what it was in atlanta. i have no complaints or regrets, i think i did well. locke kept saying "i think there's more to you" and he said it was different from his role in HS and college, but he'll do whatever corbin wants him to do. "in atlanta that was my role and i just...

i think gvc is barney stinson.

i'm sure 1280 will post audio links later.

earl - enes looks amazing physically. he says he's playing with more confidence, taking smack and playing -- wait for it -- ABOVE the rim. favors is a "grown man beast" and is also going to have a great year, but the big issue will be putting it all together. earl knew all along the jazz would...

thanks. works now.

there seems to be a lot of consensus that burks is ready to impress. wowza. that's good, it would be easily for a talented young guy to go away feeling picked on that he didn't get consistent minutes, but it sounds like he was pretty quick to say "well i'm gonna go earn it then." good to hear...

hey, my man urujazz from montevideo is back! good seeing you, man! what happened to the vid? it says removed by user. i want to enjoy the feelings of confusion and shame that all my other fellow jazzfanz are feeling as they get excited by this video.

i thought we might want a place to discuss player interviews as they come out. i could have put it in the media day thread, but that has kinda turned into something else. feel free to post all your stuff from listening too. i've been in the car for the last 30 so i wasn't paul's interview...

sarcasm? i hope so. the reality is that a 24-year-old international rookie would have to fight for every minute, meaning if he's on the floor instead of tinsley/watson/foye, it's because he's earned it by outplaying them. and i, for one, would LOVE to have somebody to outplay tinsley and...

all numbers indicate that if you removed al from the team and redistributed his possessions in a proportionate way, our team offense would stay just as efficient. our defense, naturally, would improve. but even if i'm wrong on that and there is a short-term drop-off (which could happen since...
