Rubio to Phoenix makes perfect sense. They are desperate for a PG and want to dump Ariza for something they can use. We aren't sold on Rubio being our long term PG.

What does that mean for us? Do we want Ariza? Do we want a 3rd team? We have until Saturday to figure something out. Keep playing Rubio 30 minutes per night until then.

I heard somewhere that they aren't interested in a project PG... said they aren't interested in Fultz... so i don't think they share your sentiment that it makes perfect sense.

Our best hope imo is Atlanta for Lin. They have tons of space and believe in their player development. He could theoretically fit with Trae Young.

I don't think Rubio is a project point guard.
Maybe you thought lopo was talking about X?

He actually is a potential solution.
He can beat his man off the dribble and penetrate.
He can finish at the rim and get to the ft line.
He is capable of making the right pass in the paint.
He is capable of stopping penetration and giving Rudy a friggin break back there.

He just needs 40 ****ing games and get the same leash as the 'trusted ones'.

He really could be a solution.
Either way, you all know that he has to be given this chance at some point. DL has invested too much not too.

I still believe Jazz will be a top 5 seed. But at what point would the FO decide to get off Rubio and Favors and start Exum. 12 games below 500 in January?

You are aware that I’ve been one of his bigger supporters this year, am only talking about Favors as a 5, and that Andy Larsen or one of those other Utahr media wannabes sent out a tweet in the last two days showing how he had a -7.9 rtg or something with him on the floor as a 5 this season.

That mostly reflects playing with the bench not with the starters as in the Houston game.

I'd rather not give up on Exum yet and would prefer to ship Ricky. I think in the long-term, not this year, it would be to our advantage. We're not ready to challenge for the finals, so let's look to the future.

I don’t get why Snyder hasn’t figured out yet that Gobert and Favours on the floor doesn’t work ..

Favs has had some great moments playing the 5 , we look so much better when he plays the pick and roll...

Let him come off the bench .

I’d start Sepha at the 4 ... can hit the 3 , play great D on the perimeter and his passing is quite good ...

Crowder is a chucker ... who is best used in energy situations

Favs is such a good player though. But I kind of think in today's game he's better at the 5. I think he's another player that would be better on another team. Cause he could show what he's got more. Favs is so good but I agree he's a 5
 
People that think Neto is better pull your head out of your a###. All Neto does is play safe. Doesn't put any pressure on the defence. Fire quin
 
We play OKC. Who have 3 great athletes in Westbrook, George and Schroeder. The 2 point guards are incredibly fast. So what does quin do he puts 2 of our slowest players on them. Whilst having our fastest and best athlete on the team watching from the bench. Quin doesn't have a brain. Dante comes on in the 4th whilst Russell and Schroeder guarding him and Dante keeps going around them straight to the basket with ease. And Dante staying in front of both defensively. Also he Showed the great athleticism he has whilst on the court. Do me a favour f### off quin.

I think we are seeing teams (other than the Jazz) adapt to use players like Favors well. I think he is quick enough to guard stretch fours but strong enough to do well inside. The Jazz offense does not play to his (or many of our players for that matter) strengths.
 
lol give up the dante ****.

5yrs ago it was OMG KANTER AND FAVORS ARE THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE, LMAO.
