    Kevin Pelton lists three Jazz guys as potential first time all stars

    So as an on-again-off-again poster who has a hard time keeping up with my favorite forum for the team I love, just wondering how, or more importantly why, you find the time to post on a forum for a team you couldn't give a can of piss for?

    POLL - Average NBA Fans Forecasting the Jazz Correctly?

    Real driver is that we very likely have the best 4th-9th players the team has ever had. Expectations are so high when I think we're still 2 seasons away from peaking (assuming we can somehow financially hang on to everyone).

    POLL - Average NBA Fans Forecasting the Jazz Correctly?

    I'll give you that, but it suggests even more that those who really watch the game expect a 4-5 spot leap this year. That's a big move for any team in any season, especially when they weren't a bottom feeder the year before.

    POLL - Average NBA Fans Forecasting the Jazz Correctly?

    Did a quick very unscientific poll of this thread on RealGM of NBA fans: https://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1462460#start_here And with 48 responses to how the Jazz will fare in the Western Conference by seasons end in 2017 here are the results: So after a bit of...

    And Suddenly . . . Roster Flexibility With a Decent Win Now Message

    Pretty much agree. But still think we could fight for home court if he busts. Wait, "not always agree"? What? ;-) As for Ingles we have to spend at least $20M more somewhere to reach the new MIN. Maybe early extend Favors and $10M rental on someone this season I believe with the FA money...

    And Suddenly . . . Roster Flexibility With a Decent Win Now Message

    So I like the move. I think it set's the tone for keeping our key players with a "we're ready to win" message, while keeping us flexible enough to make a move in FA 1-2 years from now (when the insane FA impact is settled a bit - this year will be nuts, as in we haven't even begun to see what...

    OFFICIAL Postseason race thread *Sticky*

    Me personally, I'm keeping the dream alive. Here's a little for our Karma. I'll drop in next game thread. Lots of losses to Mavs, Rockets and Grizz and three wins for us.

    The Sixth Seed (I see dead teams)

    Out of respect for Kanter wearing his heart the same way.

    The Sixth Seed (I see dead teams)

    My sincere apologies. Will work on trying less hard in the future.

    The Sixth Seed (I see dead teams)

    Portland would have 5th in that case and we'd have 6th ;-)

    The Sixth Seed (I see dead teams)

    Throw your collective faith/psychic powers/karma/churros at the Jazz going 4-1 or better and the Grizz 2-3 or worse. Boom we own tie breaker with 2-1 season series advantage. Another boom - no Spurs or Warriors til Conf Finals (ok conf finals may be a reach ... ). Make it so hoop gods...

    GAME THREAD Jazz at Pels 6PM MST, Feb 10

    After the Dallas game I was so pumped I had to breathe into a paper bag for a full 30 minutes. Even changed my avatar in honor of the game MVP (so damn sorry Burks it hurt, it really did). So now it's time to head to the hills, light a bonfire, and dance in a loin cloth in front of that cave...

    Don't look now, but...

    Very true. And I'm open to the possibility that there is something about Burke's play with our first unit that doesn't fit well despite his current play. However, IMHO this has more to do with a healthy Favs and Gobert together and clicking than it does with Burke's smaller time allotment ;-)...

    Don't look now, but...

    Funny how franklin ESPed my thoughts, though slightly differently. I logged in for the first time in a while to post something like "seems like Burke is playing far less than would be best for the team of late." Eyeball test made me want to look cause I've been quite happy with him lately. And...

    When your Bench celebrates like this . . .

    You know Derrick Favors has arrived. Srsly, only pure raw instinct would allow any human to actually throw down the double flex into a front curl like Lyles did when Favors sealed the game. Saw that during the game and loled my butt off ... wanted to see if anyone else noticed? Regardless, it...

    LOL just saw this . . . thanks for the trust. Been a couple of days of insanity at work, have hardly even seen the board and missed the game completely. Plus if I do a game thread, I like to "do it justice" if you know what I mean. ;-)
