    Lindsey is a far more wasteful GM than ppl want to admit. It's time for a change.

    Ultimately, the Jazz operate within this trust now. Which means DL is going to need a very direct 'okay' from Gail and whoever else is on the board to dig into the luxury tax. This means digging into other LHM assets. Trust me, last time they went into the tax, the team had to borrow heavily...

    Roster Addition Wish List

    This is just about the only way the Jazz get 'stars'. Gotta get them through trade or pray for miracles.

    ***Hysterical overreaction thread***

    Exum and Rubio are very similar players. Exum is quicker and faster, but that's about it. Neither can shoot and we're done if no one else on the floor can shoot. Mitchell hasn't been clutch this year... feels like he's missed a lot of momentum shots and isn't getting his shot. Something seems...

    Jazz Bear FIRED

    Seeing rumors on Twitter that it was about a harassment complaint from years ago. I would bet a lot of money there are far more skeletons in the closet in the House That Larry Built... For such a squeaky clean franchise to have relatively few issues like this? Loyalty doesn't go as far as it did...

    Free Jazz team event on Friday.

    I'm so glad I didn't waste time for this. Would much rather watch our core guys play 20+ minutes tomorrow night.

    Classic Court

    Same two courts as last year, although a third court had been discussed. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no room at Vivint to store three courts. Even two makes things incredibly cramped.

    Tony Jones

    I love this move for Tony. I always felt the Trib was a little too confining for him and I'm looking forward to seeing more long-form stuff. Covering a beat is a little different than being a columnist, which I hope is the direction for Tony.

    Kyle Singler

    Roster is full. Running it back with nearly the same crew. Not sure they'd even want to stash him in the G League.

    Will Donovan Mitchell surpass Stockton/Malone careers with the Jazz?

    Winning a ring will get him 99% of the way. Longevity will be the missing piece.

    Some key dates for 2018

    Media day is September 24th. Team photo shoot within the next two weeks. Most of the guys are in town already. Ingles is probably on his way over the weekend. Labor Day weekend is the unofficial weekend most teams start getting things back together.

    Bear wins third mascot of the year award

    Pretty random, as far as I know. Some mascots around the league are very open about who they are and what they do. Bear has always taken great pride in making it about the character rather than the guy inside the suit. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Jazz retire the character when his career...

    Bear wins third mascot of the year award

    *humblebrag* I'm 99.9% sure I know who he is, always say hi to him as well. Really nice guy as far as I'm concerned. Obviously, have never talked to him about his work or asked him directly.

    Official UofU homer thread

    If Huntley plays more like he did when he came back... more cautious and more willing to make his reads and trust Moss with the ball, I think that's where the success lies. The offense looked much better as the year went on and I'm willing to bet they take another step this year. I think Covey...

    Gail Miller guarantees a title

    A+ Waterloo reference. (This history major approves of this post).

    Ricky Rubio will break out this season

    I turn in my Jazz fan card if he doesn't finish his NBA career here.

    Donovan’s kids camp

    Anyone know how fast it sold out?

    Donovan signature shoe?

    Yeah, definitely no higher. I'd even think closer to the $100 mark for an 'unproven' rookie.. at least when it comes to marketing and selling shoes.

    Donovan signature shoe?

    Donovan signature shoe?

    To be honest, these tours and media work that he's been doing are probably more valuable to the franchise in the big picture. Although... I'd caution it hasn't exactly worked out for Dame (please don't jinx it). Dame is a household name... but he's never won much, hasn't gotten a whole lot of...

    Donovan signature shoe?

    It has to be a signature shoe and it seems most shoe deals are trending younger/newer generation. Puma is throwing their hat in the ring big time with that. Donovan has that rare blend of talent and charisma necessary to sell shoes though. Lots of guys have had their own shoe and lots of them...
