Kevin Love has been injury-prone throughout his career and has missed significant time because of injuries each of the last three seasons. He is never going to be really health again. Besides, due to his rapidly declining athleticism, Love can't even finish inside anymore. Last season, according...

Not only insane, fishonjazz, but untrue also. The actual numbers are: 12,411 field goal ATTEMPTS; 5,499 field goals MADE; 6,536 free throw ATTEMPTS.

Did you mean the Jazz were ranked 20th best or 20th worst? I'm confused!

I think we have to be careful to no watch Favors through rosy glasses. According to basketball-reference.com, the difference between how the team performs (per 100 possessions) when he is on court in comparison with when he is not is only +0.5 this season. Last season, it was -1.9; the season...

I follow the Jazz since 1994-95 and the 2003-04 was indeed very entertaining. Was the Jazz team good? No! Far from it. Their lack of talent was comparable to the one that the Cavaliers have today. Offensively, they were dreadful. The offensive system of the S2M days remained, so the offense was...

Let's get our facts straight about what happened with Korver during the 09-10 season. During 07-08, Korver took 6.3 threes per 36 minutes and hit .388. The next season, he took only 5.1 threes per 36 minutes and hit .386 -- so he was already being more, let's say, "conservative". Korver had the...

My wish is Malcolm Brogdon: young, but savvy and steady; can play either PG or SG and would mesh well with Mitchell, IMO. He also seems to make a discernible effort to score from inside when lay-ups are available — which would be a very good thing, especially for a team like these Jazz. I wonder...

I think this team should throw the ball inside most of the time. Both Gobert and Favors are raw offensive post players, of course, but even if their efficiency drop quite a bit with an increased usage rate, it would be better than having Rubio, Exum, O'Neale et caterva taking -- and missing ---...

Actually, both Gobert and Favors have a very limited offensive skill set, IMO. Gobert lacks touch and, unless is dunking, has some difficult finishing -- despite his size! Also, since his, let's say, "moves" are very very simple, he seems to get stripped quite often when the Jazz, to exploit a...

Put Rubio at the end of the bench and let Mitchell play the point. Find out who on the roster plays better at the 2 with Mitchell at the 1. Make Favors strictly a back-up 5 and replace him in the starting line-up either with Crowder or perhaps Sefolosha -- letting, in this case, Crowder lead the...

I don't think that on the draft combine each player does only one sprint. I believe each player runs multiple times and the result that is made available is their best. Same with jumping, bench press, etc... What happens there is not an sporting competition, but an evaluation of talent, so it is...

Mitchell seems a little bulkier, a little heavier. That worries me. His drives are clearly slower and he seems to have less lift when jumping towards the basket. Getting stronger is good, but not at the cost of some of your mobility and explosion when your game is based on these abilities, IMO...

Well... I said that Burks' 'shooting from ANY distance other than from inside has been either subpar or simply bad". You denied it. Look at his percentages last season: from 3 to 10 feet: .303 (.331 for his career); from 10 to 16 feet: .370 (.367 for his career); from 16 feet to the 3 point...

I really don't know how some of you guys can have such good expectations. First of all, Burks' basketball IQ has always been low — I think we can all agree on that. He has shown some improvement in that regard, but will it be enough? Although his athleticism has faded a little, he re-learned how...

I think Mitchell will shoot slightly less often, but more efficiently. His playing time also should decrease a little bit due to the team depth. I predict, thus, just above 21 points, while taking around 15.5 shots in 32 minutes (compare it to 20.5 points, 17.2 FGA and 33.4 minutes last season)...

No. I just photoshopped my eyes and eyebrows into a random dude's face. lol This is me:

1) Who is currently in the league, Millsap. 2) From any era, Mark Eaton (at his prime). It would be fun to have him either backing up Gobert or pairing up with him from time to time. lol

Allen measured 6'4.5 at the combine, with his shoes on. Also, he has short arms -- for a NBA player of his size --, with a 6'7.25 wingspan. Because of this, I don't think it makes any sense rounding his height up to 6'5. That would just create the illusion that he has the standard size for a...

I think there are too many guys at the 1, 2 and 3 positions and not that many minutes to go around. It will not be possible for Exum, Burks and Allen to play around 20-25 minutes per night each while Mitchell plays 35 and Rubio around (or just bellow) 30. If those three back-ups are regulars...

I totally agree, especially since we already know that he is not going to post-up very often.
