Do you think the Jazz will win a NBA championship in the next 10 years......

[green]

I think we're 1 stud wing player slasher type and an above average PG away from contending.

Kanter will be like the next Marc Gasol.

Favors will be like Ibaka (at worst).

Hayward will be like .........

Burks will be like ..........




Ok, may be we need a bit more than I thought.

BUT, winning the lottery next year would solve our problems for the next 10 years.

My fanship has waned the last two years. I posted on here MULTIPLE times that the smart thing to do coming out of the lockout was to play the young guns, and if we lost, great. If the Jazz had followed my advice, the team would probably look like this now:

Lilliard
Hayward
Barnes
Favors
Kanter.

That team would have a shot to compete for a title. The Jazz decided an 8th seed was more important than a title. Hopefully, Lindsey knows that the ONLY shot Utah has is to LOSE. If they stay out of free agency this summer, stick to one and two year deals (unless there is a good role player you can get cheap, for example a 4 year 16-20 million dollar deal for Landry), and play the core 4 the majority of minutes, then my fanship will be back.

Let's say the Jazz play the C4 and are make the playoffs. GREAT!!! That means that Kanter, Favors or Hayward took the next step and can be great. That means the Jazz are young, talented and headed into the best FA class ever with enough $$$ for 1-2 MAX players to go with a playoff team.

Let's say the Jazz play the C4 and SUCK. GREAT!!! That means the young guys gained a ton of experience, took a big step forward, and get a shot at Wiggins or Jabari. Then the Jazz would look like this:

PG - ???
SG - Hayward
SF - Jabari/Wiggins
PF - Favors
C - Kanter

Also, the Jazz STILL have money for another MAX player. Someone like, oh, I don't know...

Kyrie Irving
Brandon Knight
Eric Bledsoe
John Wall

So, yeah, I don't mind if the Jazz suck next year. It will be a HUGE step forward in the quest for a title (see OKC, SA, Ind, Chi, Den, Memphis, GS, etc). You HAVE to suck to win it all in today's NBA.

It's sad but true. Can't really fault anything you've said so far.

Biggest mistake KOC has made is believing that Ty Corbin & Al Jefferson can take this team to the playoffs and win.

Let it be said that the jazz will never and have never tanked on purpose to get better picks. This organization prides themselves for being a competitive team all the time.

Man even a top five pick next year would be considered "winning" the lottery for all we are concerned. As long as we get a star to go with a few of our young guys, that's all we need. We can fill out the roster with olden polynice after that for all I care.

But never having won a title.

Great pedestal to stand on. You know the game, you know the rules. PLAY THE GAME.
