The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

Travelling, palming and SGAs foul bating antics is ruining today's game. That and too many FT games make it boring.

And refs should be punished for bad calls.
The refs generally call games as the league dictates. This is what the league wants.

I don't see how travelling and palming and ruining things. Traveling and palming have been impossible to call accurately since players got creative and skilled at ball-handling. Even if you were trying to be super strict about making every call, you would be making a ton of calls on legal plays.

I think the big issue right now is that it's impossible to close out on shooters. Too much shooter protection so now everyone can get wide open shots. You don't even need the fastest release or best shot under pressure. If you have a high level step back your shot can't be contested.
 
Queen and Fears can look as good as they possibly can, Rookies aren't driving consistent wins
Do you still think so? This year we had quite a few rookies who obviously consistently contribute to wins: Flagg, Harper, Kon... I think that Fears, Queen and VJ are also driving wins by now. The 2025 draft was a really, really good one.

Hope the Pelicans will pass the Jazz in a month.
 
Man, this combination of court and jerseys design for the Cavs right now. This may not be as bad as our late yellow ones, but they tried.
 
My boy Bilal is kinda trash. I vow to not get tricked by the aesthetics again lol.

OTOH, Saluan is actually showing life. So maybe "looking the part" does mean something.

I was a Saluan believer, but then again, I wanted Jarace Walker something awful in 23, so there is that as well. . .
 
I guarantee that if Bilal were playing with us he'd be developing better. The Wizards are an unserious franchise. His rookie season all he did was watch Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma take turns jacking shots up.
 
Garland for MPJ is a trade that Cleveland should be making. It's as if Lauri never left. Give Brooklyn all their remaining FRPs. Might be DM's best chance at getting out of that second round.
