Or just peeing on the fire.

I am in the great minority on this board but I think both Ainge and Smith have made a number of head scratcher moves over the last number of years. He got very lucky in Boston. Hope he gets lucky again.

Maybe you are right but I am not sure any team is giving him the max. He is a great player and I am glad he is sticking around but not who I would want to blow the max on.

Rudy?

Team S and not even close

The dynamics of the NBA make it a great unknown, even from one year to the next. After last year there were talking heads all over declaring the Nuggies a dynasty. IMO one of the worst thing a front office can do is use a crystal ball as a basis for deciding. You do it on your time frame, not...

Ainge's "plan" is to be opportunistic. It is less of a plan than any professional team I have ever followed. It worked in Boston. I think he got incredibly lucky and I hope he gets incredibly lucky again.

There has to be a 3rd statue coming soon.

I absolutely love big game hunting

So dont do the same thing we have done the last two years?

I cant imagine that Lauri is happy here, especially if this becomes year 3 of sucking. And if that happens year 4 of sucking is likely. I do find the Bleacher Reports articles on what the Jazz have tried to do in the offseason interesting. IF they are accurate, we wanted Bridges and Paul...

If this has been posted someplace else I apologize. If we trade Lauri this will be used as the reason. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10126695-paul-george-rumors-jazz-eyed-mikal-bridges-trade-to-entice-star-to-leave-clippers

Of all the things to care about when drafting a player this is not one of them. And I dont buy for a minute that it is why he ended up at 32.

Players fall that should not fall but players also fall that fell for good reason. Jared Butler comes to mind. I am glad it seems to be unanimous that Collier was a steal but I some questions. His shooting percentages raise some questions for me. I am more excited about Williams and Flip but...

Bleacher Report was an A on Williams and a C on Collier.

DA is simply responding to what he likes in the moment. I dont think any team wants 3 draft picks two years in a row, especially when none of them are top 5. The real test will be if we make any decent moves the rest of the summer.

I am a lot more keen on seeing if he can develop a real offensive game than I am his defensive game.

DA got very lucky it rolled that way in Boston. No plan is iron clad and you have to have flexibility but pure opportunism with no plan is not a good thing IMO.

That ship has sailed

If I want to discuss other teams, which on occasion I do, I go to their sites. Zero interest in watering down Jazzfanz.
