    2023 NBA Draft Megathread

    I hate his hair. Surely makes it harder to play with hair like that in your face constantly.

    Blind Taste Test - Pick 3 Players

    Anyone else think Desmond Bane is the closest comparison to Ochai? Virtually identical numbers in their rookie years and senior college years. Similar body shapes/size with Ochai having the advantage. What advantage Bane has a shooter, Ochai makes up for with better finishing at the rim and has...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    Would he? Im not so sure. Between OG, Lauri and Kessler Im not sure there is enough playmaking/shot creation from our front court. Defensively got a lot of upside but could be very limited in the half court, would require a dominant scoring guard to work.

    2023 NBA Draft Megathread

    Have been thinking the same thing. Literally was watching his highlights last night and thinking of him in comparison to Donovan Mitchell who while a different player in the college flashed the same potential to shoot off the dribble and has since became his main weapon. Can see him being...

    2023 NBA Draft Megathread

    Not sure if posted yet but this is the most impressive highlights I've seen from any player so far outside the top 3. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J8WAg9EI08 The two way potential and fit would be worth trading up for.

    Ochai- What do we think?

    Im not too concerned about any rebounding numbers given we play with 3 7 footers on the court at times, while the likes of Gay, THT and Dunn who all play significant minutes are very good rebounders for their position. Also had Vanderbilt for the first 60 games who is one the better rebounders...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    Has lost some playing time since Timelord returned. Barring a breakout playoffs could be had on a team friendly contract, especially given we can offer an increased role.

    THT Turning The Corner?

    Does THT opt out of his contract at seasons end in the hope of finding a longer term deal? Feel like it could be beneficial for both parties to explore this idea. The talent is there to work with on the right terms.

    Beverley to Lakers for THT and Stanley Johnson

    THT criticism is unfair. I understand he is a frustrating player but he is literally the second youngest player on our main roster and he has flashed lots of different parts of his game that is worth persisting with. If he improves his shooting and the game slows down for him then he could...

    Jalen Williams for OKC is super impressive.

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    I disagree with the idea but I do think they want JC here long term. Im a fan of his but going forward would rather go in a different direction. KO has lost any of his earlier season trade value and is more valuable to us with his 3m guaranteed option for next season. Again comes down to...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    Its not black and white. Hardy is going to want to win as a coach, the players are going to want to win, Danny Ainge wants to develop a winning culture but at the same time knows that means **** all if you don't have the talent to actually win the grand prize. Not all tanks jobs are created...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    I haven't contradicted myself one bit you idiot. Flexibility allows us to possibly land a good player free agency, land a couple of decent players or use it to take on bad contracts. My idea would be help accomodate teams making moves in free agency on the basis we are not able to attract any...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    How have I contradicted myself. Conley was guaranteed money next season and was our bad contract which we had to give picks to get off, with him we couldn't do anything in free agency but also couldn't absorb a bad contract without sending money back. We can now go in either direction. Their...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    **** me. Some of you have shocking comprehension. I literally stated in my post that I don't like our options in free agency. We can either get vets who don't improve us and take game time away from our young players (Kessler, Ochai, Jazz Pick, Minny Pick) or we can over pay for Kuzma and...

    Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

    The more I look into this years free agency group the less I like it for the Jazz. More to do with the fit for our roster (age and skillset) rather than how good some of the players are. With that in mind we should be looking to take on salary in return for draft capital. A few ideas...

    Official Utah/Minnesota/Philadelphia Pick Watch

    They should all 4 of those games. They're a good team and should definitely be in the play in as the expense of the Wolves hopefully.

    Collin Sexton SZN

    Not for a starting guard it isn't. In any case if you actually read my post you would see that my suggestion was the area Sexton can improve and is more likely to improve is his distance shooting. Doing so would increase the number of shots he attempts but more importantly open up the floor...

    Collin Sexton SZN

    The biggest thing holding Sexton back is his three point shooting. Teams don't respect him and he doesn't give them a reason to despite shooting a good % from there. He turns down too many looks and doesn't punish the opposition from going under the screen, he also shoots the odd wild shot that...
