Love this from Corbin in todays Trib:
“We had a guy once — No. 32 — that was like that. He liked to initiate contact. This kid likes to initiate contact, too.”
Corbin’s first impression of Kanter also involved some Malone-like qualities.
“He’s got a big body and he runs extremely hard,” Corbin said. “I like how he chases the basketball, too.
“He doesn’t wait for the ball to come to him on rebounds. He goes and gets it. … You really notice his energy and his engine.”
Kanter began playing professionally when he was 15, which forced him to grow up in a hurry. In the Turkish League, older opponents didn’t bother checking for a birth certificate.
“I start playing against 30- and 35-year-old guys,” Kanter said. “That made me tough. … They didn’t say, ‘Oh, he’s a young kid.’ No. [But] they played hard against me.”

Is that true? If it is then rant on.
WE!!! Corbin played in the same league as #32. He might have some insight. I don't know. But Corbin sure as hell does not get to talk about building a team referencing HOF players. This quote is as bad as anything I've seen so far.
I want to stay behind Corbin but no more of this kind of crap please.
KOC: "We saw him practice at Kentucky 3 times against his team-mates... and those practices are pretty darn good - let me tell you"
- I guess PKM was right afterall... LOL

Wait a second. You can refer to the Jazz as "we" but Corbin, a guy who played alongside Karl, can't. Maybe you ought to explain your stupid rules to him before you require him to obey them.
Just great. As if I already didn't have enough problems, you go and throw my name in with your use of bold type. I'm Jazzfanz damned for life.

Carlos arroyo redux here. Be prepared for tons of annoying posts like this.
there may be annoying posts everywhere, by anyone, but u guys should be more encouraging to specific fans, becuz one day they can be a utah fan. Im sure there will be many people in turkey supporting Utah just cuz of enes. I became a utah fan cuz of Memo. He had this allstar year when i first intensely started watching nba, and now im an intense utah fan. I hurted my hand lots of times hitting to the tables while watching the utah game. (mainly due to boozers ****ed up defense)

Sepanol: It may seem strange, but it's just part of American sports message boards to have those that like to be butt-heads (I enjoy it from time to time). MOST do not mean anything personally (even if they say they do), just like the verbal jousting.
A great motto to live by if you frequent sports forums is, "Bring it and don't suck." Have thick skin, keep swinging, keep giving your opinions, and know that there will always be a few that 'hate' you.

Not sure what I was getting at there. I was pretty drunk last night.

Pretty much. My bad.
No sweat. These boards are for entertainment, right?
I remember them on the old board. Wow the fights that they created were amazing. Almost every post seemed to have Arroyo in it. It was worse than the Draft Jimmer stuff this year.
