I hope we end up with Kevin Durant just so we can buy out another washed up ex-MVP.

Key has the touch of an uncle with a criminal record.

Trust me, even decades later, I haven't forgotten any of those parts.

I guess I should've made peace with the kind of franchise we are long ago. We're the guy driving the hot girl we're desperately in love with in a Toyota Celica to the house of the captain of the football team so he can **** her every which way until Sunday. And then she will tell us all...

Picks aplenty. Bunch of young players. Several win-now players if they really are so deluded as to think downgrading their best player will make them more successful than last year.

The most baffling thing is that anyone would be dead-set on getting the 2025 Anthony Davis. I mean, you have a player that 27 out of the 29 other teams in the league would probably trade anyone on the roster for, and you don't shop around, you go "Yes, the time has come! We can finally get...

He's a guy about to turn 32 who's been healthy exactly one season this decade and who peaked 7 years ago. I'm not sure he's in some whole other category compared to even Lauri, let alone some other players around the league that teams would've surely given up for Luka.

Of course we're involved helping Luka move to the team every fanbase, including ours, hates the most in the league. We couldn't somehow be involved in this by actually getting Luka, despite having infinitely more assets than the Lakers. Great job, Danny.

All lottery teams have a chance at the #1 pick.

Holy ****, is LeBron Keyonte's dad, too?

Wow, two examples of your theory working the last 5 years versus dozens where it didn't. Well, I'm convinced. We just have to cross our fingers and hope for an unlikely dumpster fire a la Pelicans or Sixers(who will make the playoffs this year, so I'm not sure what kind of an example this...

Yeah, the league looks different than 10 years ago. Is this a controversial thing now? Teams aren't taking the regular season seriously and players aren't playing 82 games nor going all out for meaningless games. Again, why in the world do you think Phoenix would do as a favour and act like...

The NBA has changed a little bit in the past decade.

It's not even about competing. With about a sixth or a fifth of a league tanking any given year, and most of the rest putting in half-hearted effort during the regular season, it's not that hard to put together a team to win 30-35 games. We've seen that right here in SLC the last couple of...

Draft picks are entirely too valuable and this is what's causing so many of the issues mentioned in this thread. And draft picks were made too valuable by the introduction of rookie scale contracts. We need to go back to the system where you have to negotiate contracts with your FRPs. It...

It's 2025 and somehow we have like 5 guards who can't handle the ball. Like, what did these people do in college? Spot-up shooters haven't existed in decades. I'm so confused.

It's not the losing of games that I mind. True, we've been spoiled as Jazz fans. The past 40 years, the team has won fewer than 30 games exactly twice. I would wager there isn't another team in the league who can say that. 31 out of the last 40 years the Jazz have made the playoffs, and in 7...

If titles and greatness were my primary concern, I'd have become a Lakers fan when I was 11 instead of a Jazz fan. Even better, I wouldn't be a fan on any team per se. I'd just cheer for whoever's that year's Vegas favourite.

10%, then? Basically the odds we have of landing Flagg, at least the last time I looked at lottery odds. And yet tanking is lauded by so many here as a brilliant strategy.

My idea is mostly trading the Cleveland picks and swaps. I really don't think they're going to be very valuable and we've already got more young players(and are about to get even more) than playing time or roster spots. And obviously, it would take something of value to pry Zion. If we...
