Rumor: Jazz want to - and can - acquire Milsap. May trade Favors in draft day deal.

[RJF]

Millsap is a much better player than Favors

Favors is severely overrated

Refer to the song Hush by Tool. And act accordingly.

I disagree with Love, Ibaka and Nowitzki

I wouldn't make a strong case for Dirk at this stage or Love who I think has been over rated. However Ibaka IMO is better than Favors at everything beside post defense and that's close.

Thats fine, I think its close. I think their Defense is = but different. I think Ibaka is better at shooting right now but I think Favors is better at everything else offensively. He is a better slasher, finisher at the rim, pick and roll player, post player and a much better first step to get around a defender.

I haven't read this thread outside of the first page but come on. You guys can't seriously believe this. We're not rebuilding. We're needing to put the finishing touches on a framework that's supposed to compete. We're not looking to move established players for prospects.

We'll end the night with a backup big man.

Well, looks like infection called us getting Lyles.

Annual Jazzfanz clairvoyance continues

Did you see my graphics on Millsap vs Favors on outside shooting? Favors is actually much closer offensively than you might think. Initially I thought Sap was a much better O player as well. I don't think Millsap is as good a 2 way player as Favors, although his defense is adequate and nowhere near as bad as some have made it out to be over the years.

I think this pick stomps the Millsap speculation.

I want to murder these stupid *** reporters. **** you Jody Gennesy. I will never take him serious ever again. Oh wait, I never did anyways.

Hi. Please don't murder me until I can afford more life insurance for my wife and four kids.

I just reported what a credible source — one who's given me good info on many previous occasions — told me. There were no guarantees it would happen. I didn't report that it was set in stone. If you read my tweets and my story in Thursday morning's D-News, you'd see that I had a hard time believing it would (or will) happen.

 

[DJJazzyJody]

This rumors is dog ****. Jennessey is still peeved we did not trade Favors for Wiggins. This fool, he thinks jazz turn that down not Cleveland.

The fool Jennessey might still be peeved. Genessy, who has a good relationship with Favors and knows how valuable he is to the Jazz, certainly isn't.

 

[DJJazzyJody]

Is he still fat and smoke pit friend? I remember he disappears for a while.

Yes, I am still fat. Morbidly obese, in fact. If a "smoke pit friend" means that I like BBQ, yes, that is also true.

I'll let you know when either of those situations changes.

 

[DJJazzyJody]

Don't be an *******. You can attack Jody for the strength of his sources, but he wrote several columns about both his depression and weight gain in what I consider to be a pretty courageous display. Far more courageous than your shtick being an anonymous troll on a message board.

Frankly, I think he's the best of the local paper beat guys - way better than most of the folks at the Trib and better than the guys at the papers in most of the cities I've lived, including major markets like NYC, Chicago, and SF.

Thanks for the support — and for the incredible compliment. It's very cool of you.

LOl, props for showing up to defend yourself. Gotta respect that. Still hate the rumor and doubt the credibility of your source, regardless of past info.

This.

Does this mean we are on TV, or newspaper or whatever? Hi mom!!

 

[fgcamel]

Publicly thanking Jody for giving me something to look back on and be glad about draft day.

Favors is still a Jazz man. It's been to long since I got a chance to truly appreciate that. Goes for most of the other guys as well. Can't wait for next season!

 

[TheStormofWar]

I'm guessing Lyles makes Millsap moot at this point.

 

[Stifle Tower]

Thanks for the support — and for the incredible compliment. It's very cool of you.

Agree with Flc. Don't know Jody but he seems to be a decent chap. Of all the writers in SLC, I'd much rather sit down with him to share a root beer than with anyone else. And it is pretty cool that we have him openly posting on Jazzfanz. Can we say that about anybody else connected to the team?

Now go scold Dennis for using you to put out a smokescreen.

I like Pot to0!

I like Pot to0!

Ah, it's a pot reference. For the record, no, I don't smoke weed for medicinal, recreational or journalistical purposes.

Did your source who told you to tweet out the Jazz second 2nd round pick as Mo Jaiteh smoke weed though?

Oh..I do...for everything

 

[DJJazzyJody]

I know you're joking, but just to clear that up, here is my tweet:

"OK, here's my non-sourced stash pick for the Jazz at No. 54: French center Mouhammadou Jaiteh."

Note the "non-sourced stash pick" part.

It was just a guess.

Courteous dissent. Imagine that. Thank you.
