What's new

At least we are not the Bucks....

It's not like Kanter and Favors are scrubs though.. they both have legitmate All-Star potential, and they're both younger than 21.

No I know that. JJ Redick is good too, and should get more than 7 minutes a game. I am totally on board with Favors and Kanter starting, and they should have been playing a lot more this year. I think at the first of the year, Favors should have been starting, and Kanter getting at least 25 minutes, and starting by the end of the year. There is absolutely no reason we should not have just dumped Jefferson and Millsap for trade exceptions at the deadline.
 
In the last twelve years bucks made the playoffs 5 times, Jazz 7.
The Bucks have had a better record than the Jazz exactly 1 time over those 12 seasons, playing in a much weaker conference. The teams are nothing alike.

The Bucks just dumped young talent for a JJ Redick rental, and have nothing to hope for moving forward. The Jazz at least have some young talent and cap space.
 
well i am not big jenning fan ! but he is young and has international exprience and i think much better than mo william. i want Schroeder 1 choice but if jazz do not get him, then what ?! i also like CP3 ! but i think he is clipper again . thank you !

I think the Bucks have alot of hope in Larry Sanders and John Henson, not unlike the hope people 'round these parts have in Favors & Kanter. Harris was tradeable in part because of those two young players.

The Bucks used up thier cap space on Illysova, a tall euro kid who isn't a sf or pf, who struggles to shoot from outside and who's production dropped off right after signing a big contract. Ak says the jazz have never had that happen.

Bucks traded for 3pt specialist to help them in the playoffs, teh guy is overpaid and doesn't play in the playoffs because he is limited on defense, Kyle Korver says the Jazz never did that.

Bucks also drafted an undersized PF in the second round, then overpaid to keep him, then struggled to find a place to play him now that they have young players who should be playing ahead of him. Paul Milsap says the Jazz don't work that way.

Bucks had high hopes after getting a #1 pick in 2005, but everything went sour and they traded away the guy last year. Deron agrees that it is in no way remotely similar to the Jazz.

Bucks have an all time winning percentage of .520, Jazz .543. Not the same.

Who was that?
 
Jazz are about par with the Bucks I figure both are not really going anywhere anytime soon.. we really just lack guards and a good coach
 
Put the Bucks guards on the Jazz or the Jazz big men on the Bucks and you'd have a helluva team.

Not sure about that just because you could make an argument that Larry Sanders is just as good as Favors defensively and Illysova may be just as good as Sap. I guess Kanter could be amazing next year, but lets look at my other concern: Ellis and Jennings are often terribly inefficient and they are also undersized. I'd stay away from both Jennings and Ellis with a ten foot pole. The only role I would like for either of them on a contending team is Ellis as a scorer off the bench. 25 minutes a night. He could be fabulous in that role, but he'd need to be team oriented and willing to accept that type of a role.
 
I've had some thought in regards to the Jazz in regards to the Bucks at the deadline as well. So I'm just going to shoot from the hip for a minute and go to bed:
-Is JJ Redick as good as Paul Millsap or Al Jefferson? I don't think so and PER agrees with me.
-Is JJ Redick a better fit than Paul Millsap or Al Jefferson? Unequivocally, no.
-Is it possible that the Jazz ultimately held the dominoes at the trade deadline? Does the Redick trade fundamentally breach this notion that there wasn't a market for a productive soon-to-be UFA? I think the answer to both is arguably and likely yes (respectively).
-In life, being grateful that you 'at least weren't born in some war-torn, undeveloped hell hole' is wise. In sports, being grateful that you're not a complete embarrassment is weak. Professional sports is first about doing what it takes to be the best and everything else is pretty far behind.

Corbin is not a good coach, but the FO ****ed this season up worse. This is all regardless of how Tobias Harris has played.
