    Which Jazz broadcast combination do you prefer?

    I think we can assume that people have tried to coach up Boler. Who knows how many times this has been attempted, but that number has some obvious relationship to qualities of his character (what he’s like to work with). So if this hasn’t happened often, that’s also a reflection on him. There...

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    the odds of a pause before their money-making xmas schedule is basically zero, imo. The maths change after that, though

    Trade deadline discussion

    Sigh... I agree

    Trade deadline discussion

    Is it our T or our A that’s deficient, in your opinion?

    well... predict our record for this 6-game homestand

    It was started sooner. And, by a much better poster, it seems. But maybe he could have repeated the need for an athletic, two-way wing more often?

    Yoga

    I actually find the very detailed breathing practices, which might appear to be the most “boring” aspects to the uninitiated, to be super challenging and interesting. And I think you can have some confidence that this is helpful for Mike if he’s working on his hips (which he most certainly...

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    Why are you trying to take away the narrative that Danny is out on an island as far as deal-making practices and philosophy is concerned? Can’t you just leave some folks the cudgel they need? They thank you in advance.

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    Man, you work with some idiots. All the Lakers fans I know have been pretty damn quiet for a while. I’ve heard it gets worse as you drive East, though. Take care of yourself

    Prediction: Ainge will bring in IT

    Do you think Thomas is the defensive wing in all teh rumors?

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    The stuff that came out of Danny’s mouth can be evaluated directly and discussed on their own merits (or lack thereof). I don’t think we need to fold any of that into speculation about his reputation within the various front offices.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    He needs to paint you as hysterical in order to segue into the rest of his stance. Where do I see that rhetorical strategy employed ad nauseam? Hmm..

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    Sounds like we’re talking about more than his deal-making all of the sudden. I’m not an Ainge fan. I just bristle at the idea that he’s on an island as far as deal-making practices or philosophy is concerned. Mostly because the reporting doesn’t support that idea.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    I’ve said that I think Danny overplayed the “Players as assets” model of roster management, but to act like he’s just wildly out of phase with other GMs is silly.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    It sounds like you’re buying a lot of stock in the media buzz.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    DL’s last couple of offseasons are absolutely fair to criticize, braugh. And if someone were to criticize them, they wouldn’t be hating his entire tenure.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    Yeah, I really think Ainge’s imprint won’t start until next year. He may may a fringe move this year.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    That’s a very one-sided view of Ainge that actually isn’t supported by the spectrum of reports. And DL wasn’t fired because of how opinionated he was. He was squeezed out because his opinions clashed with Quin’s. There’s a difference there.

    Danny Ainge hired as CEO of basketball operations

    The last team that skipped over Zanik won a championship. I’m assuming this was a factor.
