We do ? I thought we were good without trying to tank and have enough talent to be okay If our pick falls as 9th to OKC.

Now the Nets sneaking their way into 11 wins

His minutes could be a bit lower, some games then and there ? Maybe But he'll have plenty scheduled rest because of tanking. Also, not so sure what about his game is extra taxing than normal, other than being a 7 footer. Even at that among 7 footers playstiles, I'd say his skews pretty...

Some real low love for basketball in that poster from Cody /s

Well, that's a game we'll have a look at how tank effective it is swapping Nurkic for Kevin Love (he wasn't in the Injury Report) or Filipowski.

I would only think of doing the job of an athlete by getting paid top lucrative athlete salary (not saying Lebron James level money, a 10 year NBA career around minimun standard contract would do). That being said, I'd wage the reality being that a role in the NBA (as with most popular sports...

Feels like he either would need another scorer or a bit better playmaker to help him. Not necessarily yet at the level to thrive in the role of a primary scorer/creator he at least initially had within tonight's rotation. Still an interesting rep to look upon.

Haven't watched enough of the Wizards to answer that as in depth as I'd like, but here I'll go. First I'd say that I feel like the Jazz would still be in a very good position if they had landed 6th with Tre instead of 5th and Bailey. I also believed then and keep now that we'd be better with...

The one thing I'm a bit bummed is that Ace minor injury overlaps with this blatant tanking night. He would problably be featured more like he was in preseason if he was healthy for this one. Still gonna be looking for that when we decide again for the Key and Lauri are under the weather route.

I do fully trust Tony as a source, but when the Jazz showed resistance in following through with actions before, I felt not like questioning the reports of the Jazz intentions, but the front office resolve in doing what is needed to reach the not so satisfying goal of something like a safe 6th...

It's good having a clear signal from the front office that they're aware of the job. Still might be looking for how the others will respond (or not) to a game without both of Key and Lauri. I guess it's the first of the season.

Our office or league office ?

I'm rooting for losses, but more and more I'm happy seeing good displays from our guys, and feeling good bout some wins amidst all the tankxiety Still gotta keep that pick tho

At this pace, he might reach that someway through january

So the worst rebuild in history is a bunch of promising young guys, a breakout star, another older star (that has a game that's posible to age gracefully), and is only able to lose enough in year four because of a season ending injury to their starting center after 5 games ? I'm going ahead and...
