The All-Time Utah Jazz Tease Team

[Handlogten's Heros]

You’re not. We traded the face of our post-Stockton and Malone franchise for him and had expectations for being really good and not just “teh advanced stats” good.

He was a big part of the package and that was probably as good as we could have done given the circumstances.

Yes, but I’m talking more about the expectation because of what we lost. But it was an atonement move, covering for the sins of omission and passivity on the part of Greg and KOC since Larry died. Who knows what we could have gotten. It was reported that KOC spoke to nobody else. We got Harris, who we parlayed into Marvin Williams (and Heaven Harris?) and then I believe that was it. We parlayed Kanter into Rubio. Favors was kind of the krux of that deal.

 

[NAOS]

Not sure why Im the only one with Favors.

He was instrumental in the only two playoff series wins we’ve had in a long time. That’s why he gets a pass from me.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

We also don’t know what Favs would have done had he played the 5 full time and been the main roll guy the last couple years.

Tough for me to call him a tease.

Favs was the centerpiece but the pick that became Kanter was a big deal... and as hinted at... KOC needed his stopgap pg option so that we could make runs at the #8 seed.

Please do tell what you felt he revealed of possible substance to qualify as a tease.

It was all vague and very sexual

There is no shame in this.

Where the hell is Shandon Anderson on this list? young Shandon Anderson was a major cog on a championship contender, then he left and fell into obscurity.

 

[Miggs]

Exum
Hood (loved @Jingled ’s assessment)
Miles
AK
Kanter

Kanter had and has physical limitations that severely lower his ceiling. I’d put Fes or Ostertag here instead.

 

[Miggs]

How on Earth is Dante on any list, yet being the captain?

What about his rookie season teased you?

Mine:

Miles
Hood
AK
Favors
Kanter

He’s really fast. Like he could probably run sub 22.0 in the 200 meters. Not sure how that directly equates into basketball greatness doe.

 

[Miggs]

I think Exum, AK, and Fes have to be on this team. After that, the 2 and a forward spot are open.

How about...Hayward? He was sort of a tease.

I think Hood fits the role better than Almond at the 2. We were semi-excited about Almond but once summer league started, it felt pretty evident he wasn’t going to be what we needed. Hood on the other hand would flash brilliance (the Lakers game) to where we thought, holy ****, this dude can really ****ing stroke the ball. He’s gonna be a stud.

Then he’d poop himself.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

He was still very good, always properly paid, accepted a reduced role, and was a genuine dude. He was a slight disappointment for me... not a first teamer imo. I think the league kinda changed on him, but I also didn't really expect him to be like Amare or Prime Dwight.

Thats kind of part of teasing, that you actually are good.

Yall are just listing dudes you put high expectations on despite it not being warranted.

The only tease and disappointment was him leaving. Was devastated. And when Eisley left, too, though I liked Marshall.

All of us? Emmk.
