    We'll hopefully have better health come playoff time.

    How will the offensive foul changes affect the Jazz?

    The challenge is going to be in enforcing these changes. We've all been begging for changes like this for a number of years. Intentionally initiating contact for the sole purpose of trying to draw a foul is about as boring a basketball gets.

    Who are you pulling for in the gold medal game?

    My love for my country says "USA, USA, USA". My disdain for the way we run our program, the lack of continuity, many top players passing, and non-existent chemistry............Viva La France?

    Jazz sign Hassan Whiteside

    Wouldn't they just return to 5 out as soon as we put Rudy back in?

    Goodbye

    Definitely going to miss One Brow. He wins my award for best avatar. We've disagreed on a lot of topics over the years, but I think we've always been cordial. Two things that I think could drastically improve our GD area: 1- Remember that if someone disagrees with you, it's not necessarily an...

    Jazz Sign Rudy Gay

    Good looking squad. Definitely need a 3rd PG to fill in when Conley inevitably needs some time off. What is Raul Neto up to?

    Mike Conley officially re-signs with the Jazz-3 years $68 million (edit: maybe 72.5M)

    Let's all pray that Butler is good enough to play from the get go and limit Mike to 28 minutes a night for most of the season. He absolutely has to be healthy for the playoffs.

    Jazz Draft Jared Butler

    Disagree. Our "needs" consist of trying to figure out how to defend teams playing 5-out with Rudy on the floor. Nothing changes, in the playoffs, unless we can correct that sole issue.

    Jazz Draft Jared Butler

    I hope you are right, but if he was a sure thing he wouldn't have been on the board at 40.

    Jazz Draft Jared Butler

    Who knows. Might be a steal.......or he might be too slow to play in the NBA.

    John Stockton anti vaxxer? Who would have thought.

    Remember when Charles Barkley told us that athletes should not necessarily be role models. I tend to agree. I want to hear what athletes have to say about medicine, politics, and business about as much as I want to hear doctors, politicians, and businesspeople talk about sports.

    The difference is we are playing hard on defense.

    Don and Mike questionable

    Am I the only one that watched Mitchell play in game 5? He was a major detriment to the team. If he's hobbled, he should not play. He's not a savvy veteran that can figure out how to play hurt. I admire the heck out of him for gutting it out, but I actually think it hurts us unless he's...

    Don and Mike questionable

    If Donovan is hobbled like he was last game, just sit him. He is a negative on the floor like this. I'd rather see Bogey, Joe, and Clarkson get more time with the ball. Might not be a winning strategy, but it's better that watching a disabled star limp around.

    Jazz in 7

    I think we still have a shot. It's unfortunate that Donovan is hurting. Rudy needs to be better defensively, but he also needs to be more of a roll threat to open up our shooters. I still can't figure out how in the 2nd half they were routinely getting wide open 3-pointers........and we were...

    I love how the game is ongoing, headed to a 2-2 series, and all I'm reading about is that we have to make huge trades and we suck.
