Hansbrough had a few jumpers and putbacks, mostly energy plays. He also made a few good post moves. That doesn't make me want Millsap back.

Favors isn't playing with much energy right now. He does look a bit slow. Not sure what the reason is.
No one's playing that hard right now except Richard Jefferson, Mike Harris and Rudy Gobert. Part of it, I think, is that guys are pacing themselves. There's no bench to relieve them. Part of it is that games haven't been winnable. But playing hard for 15 or 20 minutes a night isn't the same as playing hard for 35 or 40 minutes.

If shots start falling and we get a couple a wins it will be interesting to see what kind of effect it has on our effort and execution.
We forget the team didn't look half bad the first few games of the season.

Favors and Burks get traded before the trade deadline in the 2014-2015 season.
Between those trades, the available cap space/FA, and the draft, we pick up;
1) veteran stud PG (trade or FA) 2014
2) defensive center (gsw pick netting Embiid or WCS - or from trade/FA)
3) The best player in the draft with our own pick (I'm just feeling it. I believe that the lotto is going to go our way)
Crazy bold prediction. Bogut gets hurt, curry demands a trade, and GSW are forced to rebuild. We trade favors and picks for curry.
2015 playoffs lineup
curry
wiggins
hayward(could easily be hayward parker as well)
kanter
gobert(develops a kareem type sky hook that is unstopable)
I know this post will be replied to with much vitriol.. it's okay. I have thick skin..
LOL.. so basically that's the team I had suggested in the previous page, with Andrew Harrison & Curry swapped over?
Nice.
**** you.

You mean you think we will keep Hayward, Kanter, and Gobert? Are you srs. I believe PKM was the first to state that we would keep those 3.
Who stays;
Burke
Hayward
Rush
Kanter
Gobert
Harris
Nice try taking cred though for something that is to most a foregone conclusion.

That lineup makes my pants so damn tight!
Favors isn't gone unless he stinks it up into next year.
He'll get his act together, and anchor this defense.
We need Hay to run, and lead this offense, Fav needs to be the guy on D.
I agree we need another PG. Could your boy Harrison be that guy, or are you locked into the vet coming?
You know me I want us to use our high pick on anyone buy a PG in 2014, but I'll try and keep an open mind.

Tyrone has been given 3 seasons too many as a head coach for the Utah Jazz. What do you mean it would be slimy? A business is a business.

Ty was told he'd be judged on the defense. So far, it hasn't been very good. And it's not like he can counter with, "well, see how great my offensive system is?" Granted, Ty was handed a poor roster, Even considering that, he's taken lemons and turned them into pee water.

He's been with the team for some time now, though, the interim year, and the lockout season + the season with The core/vets. If a good coach handled our team last year we'd have easily been playoff bound. Ty should go be an assistant. And not with the Jazz.

As for the OP, I have to disagree a bit with PKM (I know, a dangerous undertaking). I think Lindsey feels confident Favors will evolve. Kanter is a beast on the offensive glass, but needs to play tougher defense. Gobert is looking like a steal. Add a backup PF with some range and that rotation is set. Hayward's shooting will come around...he's done this for three straight years (started off slow). I do think Burks is least important, especially if the Jazz draft a wing. There are backups to be had for cheaper than what Alec will want. I'm not sold on Burke, either. I think that pick was a mistake. Trey can't get his shot off in the NBA. He couldn't do it even in the summer league. Burke and Burks could be dangled in trades along with future picks (not Utah's 2014 1st-rounder, of course) to obtain decent veteran(s) to lead the team.
Yea, because business never gets dirty. It would be slimy because Ty wanted to sign vets while Lindsay wanted a full rebuild. To blame Ty for everything is wrong. The roster sucks except for the first 4 or 5 guys and there are several inexperienced players on the team.
I know most people have wanted Ty gone day one so that is probably why some people might not think it is slimy especially when you consider all the stuff Ty has had to deal with. However, I am sure Ty haters don't see it that way.

Michael Carter-Williams shot 32.7% from the FIELD in the Pre-Season, and 27.3% from three.
He will never learn how to get his shot off in the NBA. Geez, was that pick ever a mistake.
