Please don't disparage the memory of the great Milt "the Palace" Palacio. Conley looks more like a poor man's Keith McLeod - or perhaps Jim Les during his rookie season. Maybe Eric Johnson circa 1990. The biggest "surprise" is Conley sucking a$$. I didn't expect him to be fantastic, but I...

We used up all our PG karma with Stockton playing for 28 years straight without missing a single game.

I'm not an "I told you so" kind of fan, but on the Jazz fan board I used to frequent, I expressed strong opposition to this trade when it was first proposed back in early 2019. I thought we could get someone as good or better in the free agent market (Brogdon was my first choice), without...

So I was just catching up on some Jazz games on Sunday that had built up in my queue while traveling. Just watched the win at Minnesota last Wednesday and saw something I don't think I've ever seen in nearly 40 years watching NBA basketball: a player with a full step on his defender on a fast...

I just wrote out a large cheque to replace a tyre I blew out when I ran into a kerb. An ageing Karl Malone grew a moustache as an acknowledgement to Movember.

Only if you're British.

Judgment.

Is Darko Milicic available?

Conley may ultimately be a great Jazzman and is undoubtedly a great teammate, but I'm not impressed at all with a commitment to box out. That's Basketball 101. That's something you learn literally from the time you are in grade school. If you're not boxing out, you're not playing basketball...

The Whopper!! Loved that guy. Also loved me some Mike "Brown Bear" Brown. Nice pic!! But you can't talk about all-time great Jazz back-up centers without talking about the original: Rich Kelley. That dude was awesome in so many ways I can't even begin to list them.

Much like Stephon Diggs's complaints about not getting enough touches in Minnesota earlier this year, it seems as though Gobert's complaints were heard loudly and clearly.

After 7 games (using BBRef stats): +/-: -3.7 WS/48: -.020 VORP: -0.1 PER: 7.2 ORtg: 85 DRtg: 100 NetRtg: -15 TOV%: 18.5 FG%: .318 3P%: .282 TS%: .449 AST: 3.9 TOV: 3.1 A/TO: 1.23 Truly putrid. Still holding out hope, but man that hope is starting to take on an air of desperation.

Welcome to the Jazz, Conley! This is the Conley we hoped to see when we traded away significant assets and tied up $31M+ in salary cap. Now keep it up! Five games down, 77 more to go. Based on current performance, Jazz should finish the season 66-16. Excellent!

Disagree. BBRef uses an estimate of the number of points PRODUCED by the player per 100 possessions, not actually SCORED by the player per 100 possessions. Depending on the accuracy and methodology of the "estimate," this can be a significantly more useful measure of an individual player's...
