    Also, this (which is the simpler, more generally true answer...).

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Apologies for singling out "conservatives"; even in "liberal" traditional media here in Canada, the narrative is frustratingly similar. Without diving into the socio-political/demographic reasons why--there are just lots of old folks who refuse to accept any responsibility for being anti-social...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Oh boy...Despite how much cranky old folks and conservatives like to push this narrative, it's just not true. For those aged 16 to 24 years, the seasonally adjusted employment rate (employment-population ratio) bottomed out at 44.7% in June 2010. By February 2020, it had increased to 52.5%, and...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    One issue is that the Jazz currently have 5 rotation guards in Mitchell, Conley, Clarkson, Beverley and Beasley (ignoring finding minutes for Butler). At least one of those pretty much has to be moved before the season starts.

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    So...I'm guessing you have no interest in responding to my point about scoring efficiency? Which was responding directly to one of your posts. Curry was a more efficient scorer than DM this year, and it wasn't particularly close.

    So more goalpost shifting? Curry's a more efficient scorer, and a better team player on both sides of the ball.

    TS% isn't perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better than FG% as a scoring efficiency stat. Curry is in a different league than DM in terms of efficiency. Sent from my GM1900 using Tapatalk

    Don is not worth nearly as much as Kawhi+PG or AD were when those trades were made. Not in the same ballpark.

    How was DM's 57% TS more efficient than Curry's 60%?

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Fair enough--9% of the population claiming the ability to carry a conversation in French is notable (2016 census). I suspect a lot of those folks are not particularly fluent. Only 49k (1.8%) report French as being one of their mother tongues and 30k (1.1%) report French as the language spoken...

    Toronto doesn't have a large French-speaking population.

    Coronavirus

    It's almost always a mistake when I look in this thread. Since the start of the pandemic, Vermont has 61.4 total deaths per 100k population and Florida has 280.9. Even if you limit the data to the current wave, say from July 1 to now, Vermont has 20.2 deaths per 100k and Florida has 105.0...

    Royce super sluggish in this one. Giving the Jazz nothing.

    Combine measurements: Deron Height w/o shoes: 6'1.75'' Weight: 202.4 Wingspan: 6'6.25'' Standing reach: 8'2'' Jared Height w/o shoes: 6'2.25'' Weight: 193.0 Wingspan: 6'4'' Standing reach: 8'2.5'' So Butler's a tiny bit taller, but Deron had broader shoulders and 10 more lbs of weight. LINK

    Coronavirus

    Yes. Absolutely this. Also agree that current vaccines and the continued development of vaccines are our best hope. The widespread poo-pooing of (experimental) treatments as a complement to immunization is stupidly counterproductive.

    He was never as good as Kirikenko, Boozer, Millsap or Eaton. Not even particularly close.
