And one vote for AK.
Holy ****.
Batum is severely overrated.
In three years every one of the contracts the Jazz have will be over with the exception of our current rookies. At this time, the Jazz need to decide who to re-sign and who to let go. If Al is making over 15 mil, Hayward demands 8 mil, Favors demands 12, Enes is making almost 5 with Burks at roughly 3, Harris hoping for something close to his current 8, Paul having re-signed for at least 10 and other smaller role players still on the team, where is the money for a high priced SF? and if we tank the season and draft another top 6 pick, that's another high contract we would need to pay. The more high powered players we have on the team, the higher the payroll is, and with the new rules 'for small market teams', going into the lottery is even harder than it was. But with Howard playing with his energy and defense, for around 3 million, why not? .
I think most of us want our starting SF to become our starting SG. Besides, Hayward is showing some of his weaknesses lately, and there is no guarantee that he will recover. Don't get me wrong, I really hope he does, he brings a lot of great stuff, but there is a very real reason he was booed draft day, and that's because he shows no real flash. His strengths are passing, court vision, and basketball smarts. Not the kind of stuff that gets you into an allstar game, especially if your not even a point guard. Fortunately he's shown that he has a good enough shot and enough athleticism to get by in the NBA, so there is hope, but he's not showing it right now. Let's hope he pulls it together.Funny how no one wants our current starting SF.

The poll has pretty widespread voting. I should be a polestar.

4 votes between a guy in China right now (and I think pretty overrated) and a 31 year old that's playing simply out of his mind for us but doing so under the understanding that he's using this year (and the Jazz) as an opportunity to earn his last big payday (those never turn out good for whoever signs them).
1 vote for Nicolas Batum (me, so practically zero).
Yikes.
