It's like you swinged at a underhand pitched softball, missed completely, and knocked yourself out. Yes, this post is that bad.

I'm good, venting helps. I feel better now that BR is now being ignored.
It's probably been mentioned but KOC is considered one of the top GM's for what he has done in Utah.
Did he missed on some draft picks - Yes - but there isn't another GM that hasn't
Did he keep us competitive after the Stockton/Malone years - Yes we went to the WCF
Is he in the process of rebuilding on the fly right now - Yes - Lets give him time for players to develop.
Blues mentioned getting a Durant, LBJ, Kobe.... those players come around once every 5 years if that. And to top it off OKC SUCKED for years with him drafted. It wasn't until other players were put around him (Westbrook, Harden, Serge) that they became good.
It's a joke when people call for KOC's head right now. I'm sure he WOULD trade Millsap or Jefferson IF the right deal came around but if we all know it, so do other GM's, and those GM's won't exactally give away much when someone knows that you are trying to move them for whatever reason.
In Blues defense.. of course we want to see the young guys PLAY and develop. I think we ALL want that BUT I've heard numbers that even 2 home games in the playoffs is a few Million. That few Million is what makes the team profitable and stay in Salt Lake.
The Next 8 games out of the block will steer us into Playing more of the Young Players. Between the Miami/Dallas back to back and the 5 game road trip that starts in Dallas we will be on the outside big time, looking in, and I think that is when something goes down.

Why is KOC so untouchable?
You all act like he is your girlfriend.
You all act like he is your girlfriend.
Instead of saying "Please find a new team to follow/troll..." & will just note that most analysts had us finishing last in the conference (8 games better than NO, 5 games above SAC, & 1 game from the 8th seed)!

Only suitable reaction to this thread...
Yep. Still applicable.
I know you're not referring to my post cause you contradict yourself TWICE (see below)!!
Get off this board & go root for OKC!!!

This thread was clearly started by somebody who has never experienced the displeasure of following the majority of the league's other teams.
With the exception of LA, Miami, Chicago and Boston - who have built in advantages - the Jazz are in a rarified class along with San Antonio and OKC. What KOC has done is nothing short of amazing.
You guys... I grew up in Utah. I know it's a good place to be. But to the rest of the country, particularly those who aren't white, it's widely regarded as one of the sh*ttiest places in America. The reddest of red states where polygamy runs wild but you can't buy alcohol - and some good skiing. Utah is like the anti- New York City, it has all the cards stacked against it. Nobody wants to be there.
Despite all of that, KOC fields winning squads. And when he's not, he goes directly into strong rebuilding mode (as we see this season). There is no in-between, no constant stream of low-level mediocrity (see Warriors, Bucks, Hawks, etc...) and it's awesome.
Best GM in the league, IMO.

I have lived in the state of California, Utah, Washington, Colorado, Tennessee and Mississippi and I can pretty much confirm that Utah has a terrible reputation based off of rumors and lies. They really do see Utah as nothing but religious zealots who ban alcohol and marry numerous women that they they keep at home in the kitchen, laundry room and on their backs in bed.
The only good things I have ever heard about Utah from people in other states is Zion national park and the skiing. It is pretty funny when they used to check me for horns.

What the hell are you talking about chump? How have I contradicted myself? My position is to trade away some of these starters for draft picks or for nothing to make room for the young guys so they can play. Knowing that we will be in the lottery for a few years and we can add more top talent.
