I also think Gay is better than Batum in a vacuum, but I think a Batum addition for the Jazz would have been better from the standpoint that Batum probably helps the Jazz more when opponents go small and had the Jazz been able to sign him, it’s a double whammy because we would have weakened the...

Honest question for smarter basketball minds: When a team goes small on us, can we play Gobert and Whitesides together? When a team goes small on us, I’ve always been EXTREMELY frustrated that the Jazz can never seem to make them pay by staying big and punishing our opponents down low until...

After reflecting on it, I’ve gone from being underwhelmed with our offseason to being pretty excited. The playoff loss to the Clippers still stings like a ************, but if we take our fan glasses off and look at why we lost that series, I believe a few subtle tweaks gets the job done as...

If we were to change our name to the SLC Knicks, would it increase our chances of keeping Donovan?

It will never happen, and I’m sure I’m in the extreme minority, but I think dropping Utah for SLC just sounds cooler. That being said, they will always be the Utah Jazz, no matter how many times the color scheme changes. At this point, it’s getting ridiculous but I’ll put up with anything...

I think Bronco leaving and Sitake taking his place is the biggest reason we’ve seen the pure hatred start to calm down. That and not being conference foes has changed the rivalry dramatically. I also think Utah going 12 years without losing took some steam out of it. I don’t want to take...

I had a feeling BYU was gonna be up to the task last night. They wanted it more than Utah and you could tell from the get go. Congrats to the BYU fans of the forum. You’ve got a damn good team that deserved every ounce of that win last night. We’ll see you in a couple years.

I hear that a lot from my BYU friends. I would tend to agree. From a Ute fan perspective, I never really fear what Tuiaki is gonna dial up, but it admittedly puzzles me. K-Whitt is a Defensive guy and regardless of who his DC is, you know that Whitt has a heavy say on the Defensive game plan...

I’ve always wondered why Tuiaki keeps it so vanilla. Sitake spent so much time under Kyle and never seemed to hesitate dialing up exotic pressures when he was Utah’s D coordinator that I just always figured we’d see the same philosophy once he took the BYU job.

It’s too bad Romney got hurt because if he was playing alongside the Nacua’s and Pau, I’d actually give the WR edge to BYU. Utah’s LB’s are good as a whole and I think Devin Lloyd will be the best player off either squad on Saturday night. I was pleasantly stunned when he decided to return this...

All of this is spot on. I expect to see both Nacua brothers and your LB on Saturday. I think BYU could have played everybody vs Zona and blew their doors off, but they didn’t need to. No sense showing your hand the week before the rivalry. If Utah does manage to win #10, I think it will be due...

If you think the Utah teams of the 80’s were anywhere near what BYU had, we’ll have to strongly disagree with each other. Utterly ridiculous take.

I really HATE saying this, but I really can’t fathom Utah beating BYU 10 straight times. For perspective, when BYU was absolutely dominant in the Lavell era, if I’m not mistaken, they never beat Utah 10 straight times. The streak would get to 9 and then an inferior Utah team would rise up and...

I get that analytics are a huge part of today’s NBA, but sometimes we really tend to overthink ****. When you can replace a Gorges Niang with a Rudy Gay, you do it. Every. Single. Time.

There’s gotta be some sort of common sense provision in the Jazzfanz bylaws that allow for it. This guy and Mello are here solely to troll and the mods just stand by and let it happen. Meanwhile, don’t you dare try to circumvent the profanity filter!

How is it possible that the Jazzfanz powers that be haven’t banned this clown yet? It’s the same schtick every time and probably the worst thing about it is that it’s never original and/or funny. This guy seems to have an all access pass to troll just for the sake of trolling.

Sounds like there’s more smoke on a potential Paschall trade. Gives us a stretch 5 and Donovan would be doing back flips if we landed him. Seems to make all the sense in the world.

I don’t know whether to rejoice or worry they’re shedding more salary to make room for a Niang return.

That makes it even more baffling that Quin wouldn’t alter his rotation in the Clipper series with Niang struggling so badly. Early in that series, we saw Ty Lue trying anything and everything with his rotation and in the beginning it looked like a desperation move; and maybe it was but it...

That would be an AMAZING offseason. We basically jettison Favors and Niang, and through the draft, salary and trade exceptions add Portis, Craig, and Butler. Oh, and we pull all that off while resigning Conley. Sign me the hell up!!
