Game: Jazz @ Orlando time: who cares

It looks like Utah has set the table with Favors, Hayward, Burks and Burke (also still possible pieces of Kanter, Gobert and Neto) We just need that center peice. If they can land a top 3 pick then we are golden. So close and yet still so far.

Even after last nights win and the Bucks loss the Jazz are only a 1/2 game behind them. Still time to right this ship and contend for the tank lead.

YESSSSS!!!!!

That's the exact point! Where the hell have you been living the past few months? Or hell, year??? This draft is projected to be the strongest one since Lebron's!

If you don't think there are some future superstars in this draft then please watch Duke, Kansas, and Kentucky more often. Watch those 3 teams and come back and tell me whether you prefer:

A wins against Orlando which merely push us outside of the top 3.
B tanking right to give us the best chance at scoring a top 3 pick.

There were two superstars in that draft and two guys who are pretty good but you can't build a team around. Outside of that it was a pretty weak draft. Dwyane Wade wasn't even drafted second. It's all hype, man.

Top draft picks are all hype so if we get a top 3 pick we should trade it for a much later pick or a decent caliber player (millsap, al jefferson) right?
 
I'm quickly losing faith in DL. This year is our best chance(perhaps only next 10 years) at being at the bottom.

You're losing it to fast. Remember that Utah plays things close to the chest. We won't really know about a trade till it is about to happen. Lindsey has done great so far.

No, we're in a position where people stupidly think we are getting a guaranteed star with a top pick just because people have overhyped a draft. Again.

Not stupidly think....... but know that its our best chance.

Big difference

...the Jazz really tried hard to lose this game...they really did! They MISSED 49 shots! Can the Jazz help it if the NBA is so pathetically flawed and unwatchable....that even when they WANT to lose....they can't? They've got to make it look like they are at least trying! Or the FBI will begin an investigation to see if games are being thrown for gambling purposes!

I think he'll be a solid player for us, but I wouldn't say he's a franchise changing player (even though he's changed the franchise since coming back.. lol). I kind of feel like those stats are somewhat meaningless. Like he's also the first player named Burke to get 30 pts, 8assists, and 7 boards. It's a really positive thing to see though.

So far we've seen that all star pg's don't win championships. I almost think they have to much exposure to score and distribute. I think a nice solid pg and a all star is the way to go, I'm just rambling though.

Magic Johnson. Chauncey Billups, Tony Parker, probably could nane a few more all star point guards.

add bob cousey, cheeks, tiny archibald, walt frazier, dennis johnson, & isiah thomas. and rondo was a key player when celts won it all.


KJ, stockton & payton should've won at least once, but of course MJ happened. can't really blame them.
 
right now teams like Heat doesn't need great PG because Bron is a point forward. and they have enough guys with handles and smarts.

and look at pacers right now. what's their biggest weakness? PG. PG changes everything. just look at the Knicks. nets? without healthy Dwill they are one of the worst team.

and look at the west - what do top teams have in common? parker, lilard, westbrook, cp3



whoever says PG doesn't win championships... lol

This is the same draft where Wade went at #5, and won a Championship MVP before Lebron did? Where one of the biggest busts in draft history went #2, and the player who went at #3 hasn't even made the Finals in his career (and his current team is a tank rival). Again, your point is disproved.

Again, what is YOUR point? would you rather suck and get the #1 pick, or suck and get the #9 pick?
 
All i know is Trey Burke is teh boss. You can trade Marvin Legend and Richard Jefferdad but Trey gonna do what Trey gonna do..

That being said, WHATCHA GONNA do brother?

I used to agree with the saying... but the rules changes have changed that. A PG can just do so much damage nowadays.

I agree with this, the game has changed. It has adapted to give the edge to the offense.

It all goes back to money (higher scoring games sells tickets)
