    Quotes from the Spurs' forums-"oe Ingles or Larry Bird? Trick question, it's the same white guy."

    SpursTalk is probably the worst NBA forum around. Just f***ing terrible.

    Traditional PG not needed in Quin's offense

    LMAO. This guy...

    What are some options for filling the last roster spot?

    I'd like to see them take a flyer on someone like Jordan Crawford. He was a solid addition for the Pelicans last year and IMO they made the wrong choice when they cut him at the start of this season. He was much more efficient than earlier in his career and provided some great scoring off the...

    Hood traded to Cleveland for Crowder; Johnson to Sacramento

    There isn't that much difference between the two at their peaks. They're both role players who fit in as the 4th-5th guy in the starting unit or well above average bench players. Ingles is far and away the better 3-pt shooter and playmaker but he's way too reluctant to look for his own shot...

    Hood traded to Cleveland for Crowder; Johnson to Sacramento

    Very happy with the trade. I am a fan of Crowder and while he has not been himself in Cleveland I'm sure the move to the Jazz will do wonders for him. He's a very solid defender with a reliable 3-pt shot (especially from the corners) who can play both forward spots and has a great contract...

    Current Team Needs?

    A dynamic wing scorer with a 3 point shot and a stretch-4 who can defend the perimeter. Basically the same as last summer and the same everyone else in the league wants. :D

    When is Quin Snyder going to install an offense?

    That's mainly because it's less of Quin's offense and more of Rubio's offense lately. It was exactly the same with Thibodeau in Minnesota last year (and the year before with Sam Mitchell, and even earlier than that during the Adelman days). Rubio is spending less time waiting on the corners...

    Utah Jazz @ New Orleans Pelicans -- Feb 5, 6pm MST

    Who would've thought the Jazz would completely erase their offensive woes and start playing so much better if they gave Rubio the ball and picked up the pace, right? ;)

    Just give him the ball and RUN.

    Rubio Stats

    He's excelled at it so much that even as the team kept losing games he was always a positive and the team was always far better with him than without him, to the point where he was the only guy with a career positive +/- on that franchise since the KG days. The Timberwolves not making it to the...

    Rubio Stats

    I don't think the Jazz or anyone who was in favor of the trade envisioned this kind of system back in late June, and the truth is it's a terrible fit for Ricky and it's no wonder it isn't working. Now, I don't blame Snyder for running an offense based on so many hand-offs and movement around...

    What Should We Do With Rubio?

    Well, if he could play consistently like last night he would be more than fine, he would be an All-Star. But you're right, he needs to stick to what he does best, which is directing the offense, taking care of the ball and busting his *** on D. After all the **** he's gone through in his...

    Rubio..

    I'm a huge Rubio fan, I have been since he was 14, and not following from afar, but watching him closely every step of the way (and when it comes to his NBA career, I haven't missed more than a handful of his games). And this is, without a doubt, the worst I've ever seen him along with a really...

    Following Potential 2018 Draftees

    Anyway... 33 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists tonight. Simply put, nobody's ever done what this kid is doing at his age, or come close to it.

    Pre-Clutch City tears thread (Rockets @ Jazz)

    Like Numberica said, they just have terrible chemistry. But Gobert doesn't need anyone to help him look like crap, he's just fine doing it himself. Just look at his 5 TOs last night, none of which involved Rubio nor were a consequence of bad passes from his teammates...

    Pre-Clutch City tears thread (Rockets @ Jazz)

    Everyone and their mother knew the Jazz would have a problem with Rubio, Favors and Rudy sharing the court. It's something that should have been addressed in the summer, and getting Jonas and Thabo to back-up Favors was never gonna be the solution, even with a healthy Joe Johnson. Like or not...

    Jazz @ The Process 5pm Mountain Time

    C'mon now. 4 guys inside, nobody closes out the outside shooter except for Rubio who's coming from the other end of the floor, and then none of those 4 guys can catch the rebound after the miss, against only one Sixer?

    Utah Jazz (5-7) vs Brooklyn Nets (5-7) Tonight 7pm

    I know it's not a popular opinion around here, but you guys need to stop thinking about "building around Gobert" on offense. You don't build around a C with no jumpshot, no post moves, not the best hands and not even a reliable FT stroke so he can force his way to the line. Rudy right now is the...

    Greg Miller re Tanking: "It's Immoral"

    People always resort to the teams that were succesful after accumulating losing seasons, but never seem to remember those who were mediocre for years on end despite their losing efforts. F*** tanking.

    Gobert out for 4-6 weeks

    It's a tough loss, but I was intrigued to see how the team would work last night with Rudy out and I'm even more interested right now in seeing whether Snyder encourages them to play faster, which is something I've really missed these first 3 weeks. Hopefully he does and it also translates when...
