    Cooper Flagg wants another year in college

    I know this years tank is in full bloom. What worries and sickens me is that the Jazz may wind up tanking for nothing so they will continue in this mode for the foreseeable future. I don't have that many years left and don't want to waste them watching a team that is trying to lose year after year.

    Cooper Flagg wants another year in college

    He stated this in an interview. If he stays at Duke, does that cast a shadow on our tanking effort?

    According to the Laker press, the Lakers are interested in our young point guard. They think the lakers should go ahead and take him from us next year. I guess whatever the Lakers want, they can just go get. They think Collier would look great in Faker gold.

    Credit to Danny Ainge for timing the market perfectly

    What you are saying is indeed factual, that doesn't mean it will happen again. I haven't been all that impressed with what he has done with the assets he acquired so far, he has given many away for very little and has actually hurt the value of the draft picks by helping the teams we own the...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    Yes I would. I don't think I would hate it any more than watching a bunch of games with teams trying to lose. The whole tank thing is rather despicable for the integrity of a sport I've loved for more than 60 years. I know that teams that are down look to the draft to make them better...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    I think they should stop rewarding teams for losing. Make the 1st 4 picks lottery picks with every team in the Legue having an equal shot at winning. After the 1st 4 picks the rest of the draft proceeds as usual. The worst team record to the best. That would provide far less incentive to try to...

    The lottery was implemented to ensure that tanking would not be rewarded with the top pick or picks in the draft. It has since been modified several times so that tanking has again become somewhat profitable. I think every team in the lottery having an equal shot at say the top 4 picks in that...

    I think it's crazy that anyone can possibly enjoy watching their team purposely lose, and when 1/3 of the teams in a league are doing it, it makes for piss poor entertainment.

    When this lottery thing first started, every team in the lottery had the same chance of winning. I think if the NBA went back to that model, there would be far less incentive not to play to win.

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    I know most everyone here is lamenting back to back wins, but it sure feels good when you watch a win.

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    I'm afraid of the unending tank. Are you going to be excited to watch a 10 year tank?

    I'm not convinced that what the Jazz have done to this team over the last couple of years will produce anything more than what the Clippers did for 30 years with all their 1st and early round draft picks. I hope I'm wrong but they were perpetual cellar dwellers and I'm pretty sure I won't be...

    I've been a Jazz fan since they moved to Utah in in the 78-79 season. I'm not going to quit now. I just hate how far a once proud franchise has fallen, There are no guaranties even if we finish with the worst record in the NBA that we will get the pick we want. As a matter of fact, the Jazz have...

    I don't think it will matter as long as we remain the team that can't shoot straight.

    I have been a Jazz fan since their move to Utah in 79. We started out as an absolutely horrible team but I fanned through that era into the glory years. I think trading away both Mitchell and Gobert was a gutsy move by the FO. I can see why that was done. Unfortunately we picked up quite a few...

    2024-2025 Tank Race

    with the Jazz luck of the draw, they could wind up with a 99% chance and still lose out on the top pick.
