    andre iguodala probably tore harmstring

    Latest: not torn, but strained. Out "indefinitely" FWIW. Rusty Simmons ‏@Rusty_SFChron 4m Andre Iguodala's MRI exam showed a strained left hamstring. He's out indefinitely, according to the team.

    Jazz @ Mavericks 6:30, Game thread Our savior cometh?

    The shot near the end of the third quarter? If so, it was really bad. (How bad was it?) Shane Larkin was flying by so the NEAR SEVEN-FOOTER double clutches a 15 foot jumper while already in the air and it bounces off the top of the backboard. So what's that? Four feet above the rim? It's...

    Confidence in GM down?

    I think they still want to be competitive and help the youngsters grow, but of course they were only offering the minimum salary, so they were limited. With Tinsley they leaned toward a mentor and maybe thought he could still play a little. If so they were wrong. So they pulled the plug and...

    Jazz need new jerseys

    IDK what's official and what's "special occasion" for uniforms, but the NBA has been getting more relaxed in recent years. Like last week the Jazz wore dark blue and Nuggets wore light blue, allegedly for Veterans Day. Nobody was in white that night. However, tonight was the worst example...

    Can Lucas Getting Cut Be That Far Behind

    Maybe some degree of nepotism, but IMO Lindsay's plan was to add guys who fit the following mold: 1) Good locker room presence. 2) Not good enough that Corbin would be tempted to play them excessively ahead of the young players. 3) Some degree of experience to help mentor the team (rather than...

    Can Lucas Getting Cut Be That Far Behind

    More importantly the Pelicans were just daring him to shoot. Tough to run an offense, which is probably why Corbin had to bench him for the second half. That said, the Jazz have hardly ever swallowed guaranteed contracts and Lucas is still owed $1.6M. I don't see them waiving him any time...

    Playing with purpose

    Speaking of growing, tonight Hayward's scoring average passed the 20 ppg mark. As near as I can tell, the last time the Jazz had a 20 ppg scorer was Deron in 2010-11.

    Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

    I'm sure they were. Every single player who makes a roster and gets sent down to the D-League SHOULD have better numbers. They get to play more and the competition isn't as good.

    Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

    This was published yesterday before 2:00 p.m. and later Marc Spears said the Jazz would take time and work out a few people. Maybe that plan changed for some reason, as I see Spears has deleted that tweet. I took a quick look at the 3 guys ESPN mentioned and I have to say I'm not that...

    Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

    Yeah that was my point. Someone asked if it was Corbin's call to pick up Tinsley over Machado or Hudson. My opinion? It doesn't matter much. It's not like Corbin was wrong, i.e. passed up a superior player.

    Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

    Insider's short article mentions three potential replacements: Diante Garrett, Kendall Marshall and Jimmer Fredette. As I mentioned at the bottom of page three it looks like they will take a few days at least to work this out. A bit different vibe right now than the report that Garrett was a...

    Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

    Not so fast on Diante Garrett. @SpearsNBAYahoo 18m Jazz don't plan to make a quick decision on a new PG, sources said. Rather, work out some prospects with NBA & D-League ties than make call. Sounds like it could be a few days or longer.

    Jamaal Tinsley waived according to the internet

    Even if it was I think it's defensible. If Tinsley had played at least at last year's level AND mentored the young guys, he would have been fine. I know Hudson is in China so he isn't available, but where is Machado? If he's unemployed or in the D-league, it's interesting to note that the...

    Game Thread: Denver Nuggets @ Utah, Monday, November 11, 7:00 pm MST

    Well, so much for my cherry-picked game thread. I fail along with the creators of the first seven game threads.

    Game Thread: Denver Nuggets @ Utah, Monday, November 11, 7:00 pm MST

    I'm seriously cherry-picking starting this game thread; someone has to start the thread for a game the Jazz could actually win. In this corner, the Denver Nuggets (1-4), who traded Andre Iguodala and currently have Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari and Javale McGee injured. Projected...

    Random thoughts as I'm watching the Jazz Raptors game

    Don't give him too much credit. He hit his last three shots and scored 11 in the 4th. That means when the game was decided (quarters 1,2,3) he was 1-for-7 and had 6 points.

    Random thoughts as I'm watching the Jazz Raptors game

    I hate to break it to you, but Hayward and Favors are 4th years players. Kanter and Burks are 3rd year. Now back to your regularly scheduled debacle.

    Game thread: Jazz @ Bulls - Nov 8 - 6PM MST - ROOT Sports

    I drove from Phoenix to Chinle, AZ tonight for the long weekend. Missed the game live, and wifi here isn't good enough to stream the replay, so I finally just looked at the score. Now I'm glad the wifi was slow and I didn't sit through that game. Hard to believe Jazz are 1 1/2 games out of...
