    Keyonte George Hype & Appreciation Thread

    I usually find these type of exercises to be futile, but what the hell? We’re losing games and I’m bored. Here’s Keyonte’s rookie numbers thus far matched up against Gilgeous-Alexander’s: MPG: Key- 25.7 SGA- 26.5 FG% Key- 39.4% SGA- 46.7% 3FG% Key- 35.3 SGA- 36.7 PPG Key- 12.2 SGA- 10.8...

    TMZ reports that Kobe Bryant passed away.

    I wasn’t gonna comment on any of this, but its just too silly. So, your main point is that we don’t know for a fact that Kobe raped a girl because we weren’t there and don’t have all of the facts, but somehow you’re qualified to state that “There’s as many women lying to take advantage of it...

    Would you want the Jazz to draft Bronny to have Lebron in his last season?

    As a lifelong Jazz fan, I’d love to know what a championship feels like. There’s like, 100 reasons that Lebron playing with his son during his last season probably won’t come to fruition. That being said, sure, if Lebron wants to come to Utah because the Jazz drafted Bronny, let’s due. Of...

    The Return of Jingles, AKA Ramjoe

    I’ll 2nd that! How crazy is it that the enduring memory of the Donovan-Gobert era will be Joe ****ing Ingles?! It’s a shame the dude will spend his post-NBA days living in Australia as it would be cool to have him involved in the organization in some capacity.

    The West Conundrum

    The west looks pretty rough on paper, but this has always been my take on the NBA and probably always will be: If you’re a team like the Jazz that has decent to-good-level talent, and you go out every night actually trying to win and compete, you’re gonna find some wins. Looking at the Jazz...

    Paul Reed signs 3 yr 24mil offer sheet with Jazz

    I’m sure reading that quote bummed out a lot of Jazz fans, but I’ll share a quick anecdote that might cheer some up: During his last season in Utah, I met Donyell Marshall and actually got the chance to have a few good conversations with him. He was very upfront about the fact that he was...

    Paul Reed signs 3 yr 24mil offer sheet with Jazz

    Huge bummer. Was really looking forward to see if this kid could come to Utah and take the next step with more playing time and an HC who’s actually invested in developing young talent. The contract language was an absolute master stroke by Danny and I have to think that the long, and not very...

    Paul Reed signs 3 yr 24mil offer sheet with Jazz

    So a little over 6 hours to go. I figured with the way Ainge set up the poison pill, Philly was gonna take it to the 11th hour without tipping their hand. At first I thought it was a no-brainer that Philly would let him walk, but that fan base is beside themselves over the idea of him leaving...

    Paul Reed signs 3 yr 24mil offer sheet with Jazz

    This reeks of a pre-trade move. Next week might be very interesting.

    Dame Time

    A few days ago when Dame made his trade request, I thought it was highly unlikely that he’d end up in Utah. As of today, I still find it highly unlikely because while Dame and his management have mishandled this situation, I don’t think enough damage has been done so long as Miami finds a 3rd...

    Dame Time

    I think you raise a valid point about Donovan keeping it private, but there’s a flip side to that and it is that Dame gave his all for Portland for over a decade and I believe that his desire to stay there and win there was 100% genuine. There was a brief honeymoon period between Donovan and...

    Dame Time

    Right on man. We’re all entitled to our own opinions, regardless of how dumb they may be.

    Dame Time

    With all due respect, I think this is an awful take- but that’s just my opinion of course. I think it’s fair to say that since being drafted by Portland, Dame wanted to make it work in Portland. Badly. He wasn’t one of these starry eyed young players who get drafted by one of the smaller...

    Dame Time

    So I’m a long time fan of the Miami Dolphins (please save your laughter, I’ve suffered enough). Early this offseason, the Phins traded for Jalen Ramsey. Ramsey had a little more leverage than Dame did, as he told the Rams he wanted to be traded to Miami or else he wouldn’t agree to restructure...

    Dame Time

    Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to be in San Antonio’s shoes right now, but so much has to happen for Wemby and the Spurs to become an unbeatable force in the west. First, dude’s gotta live up to the massive hype, sustain it, and do it while managing to stay healthy. Then, the Spurs have to...
