Name the front courts you'd currently take over the Jazz

[Ron Mexico]

Most ridiculous argument NBA fans make, ever.

So serious question.

What's more likely. SAC wins more games trading Cousins for either Gobert or Favors or Utah wins more with Cousins in the frontcourt?

Haha.. I can already hear the replies. Grabbing popcorn, brb.

Well we already saw how one UK spoiled kid who took plays off and only played defense when convenient to him and was worried about his stats worked out for the Jazz W/L record. So I am going to say Jazz get the raw end of that deal. But there is not doubt he can play well so maybe if he isnt crying or taking plays off and a coach gets him to play with his team and not be a distraction he is going to be great. But that is a big if. What happens if he ever makes the playoffs. I dont see him handling that intensity well.

I know he is your "buddy" so you got to stick up for him.

And no, it is not ridiculous to say that a player with good stats whos team loses is not helping the team win. Gay is a great example of that, Memphis got a lot better after he got hurt and got traded. But he was putting up big stats for that team. Jazz would have won less games last year (especially post all-star break) if we took Favors or Gobert off the team and put cryin Cousins on it. Good players find ways to help their team win even if they dont have a great team around them. Although you are arguing he does have a great team around him this year so I guess we will see how he does with a great team.

Cool. We are still in love, you and me.

Only a homer can claim the Jazz frontline has proven anything either, so.. I think potential is fair game.

I don't think the Jazz front court has proved anything, I said it's hands down SA..I think WCS will be a career 10 and 10 and that's good but not for where he was drafted and picked over. Kings passing on Mudiay to add a limited offensive big and bringing in Rondo makes zero sense.

I'll give ya that. Good thing this thread wasn't about teams that make the best roster decisions. Because my post would have warranted a real lashing.

A real organization and team would make Cousins bballpornstar.

 

[Game6Conley]

Not that I would take them over the Jazz, but an honorable mention should have been made of;

WCS
Cousins
Gay

Koufos doesn't deserve honorable mention??

Good point. The Kings will really regret passing on Mudiay. Then again, the Kings will regret just about everything they do...

I think I might have to go with the Thunder over the Cavs. LeBron is jist a little bit older and slowly declining. It shows in his statistics from last year. If Durant is healthy he is going to be beasting. He's in his best prime years right now.

That's really what sways the argument one way or another on this question. As much as I like our front line, it would be hard not to pick a front line with Davis,Lebron, or Durant in it. Almost regardless of who's the other players are.

 

[Bawse Dawg]

So I see we are all still sensitive as hell, and hate PKM because he's a fan of a good team?


Man, I missed being in a forum full of people from Utah.
