    Is THT a Longterm Piece?

    If he was a better defensive player I would vote yes. He looks like he should be an elite defender on the wing, but I just don't see it.

    Quotes from Spurs' forums-"Elite tanking by us."

    Didn't watch the game live but caught highlights. I'm trying to think of a game I've watched in the past with less recognizable faces. Nothing comes to mind.

    Resting Conley tonight? Please keep him fresh.

    Anyone else watching on league pass, where they are streaming "BallerVision"? Three ex-players video streaming and talking over the game. It's terrible.

    Trade Confirmed: Jazz get jack for Bogey

    Supply and demand. The Jazz and Thunder have gobbled up so many of the available 1st round picks that the price to obtain one that is actually available has gone sky-high. We're lucky we got a 1st for Royce when we did. The only plausible explanation is that there legitimately were not any...

    Not sure I buy that.

    Wow, reading through this has reassured me that we are going to suck.

    Quotes from Knicks' forums after losing Mitchell-"f**k Ainge forever and always" (I)

    "Meanwhile the Cavs traded a 20+ PPG guard, a young solid big, basically 4 Unprotected Firsts (Agbaji is this years 14th pick) and the 2swaps in between into the mix." I'm not sure Agbaji counts as an unprotected pick, lol.

    Quotes from Knicks' forums after losing Mitchell-"f**k Ainge forever and always" (I)

    "If anyone here is mad about Rose not giving up the late 20s firsts, eat my dick" This guys gets it.

    Woj: Don to the Cavs for Markkanen, Agbaji, Sexton, three unprotected 1sts, two swaps, and a partridge in a pear tree.

    I actually disagree. I can't definitively say we are better than anyone in the West, with the exception of maybe Houston. Have to assume we're going to move Conley, Bogey, and Clarkson, and with no incentive or pressure to win, the coaching staff will just be playing to develop. What will our...

    Woj: Don to the Cavs for Markkanen, Agbaji, Sexton, three unprotected 1sts, two swaps, and a partridge in a pear tree.

    Glad this is finally done, at least the major pieces. Conley, Bogey, Clarkson I expect all will be moving soon. Transitioning from rooting for a team with high expectations, to a tanking team, actually feels like a relief. High expectations change everything. It will be nice to watch a Jazz...

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    I'm not sure if you recognize the tone you bring to fairly mild conversations like this one, but it really discourages people with other perspectives from commenting. "I don't expect you to pick up on the hypocrisy" seems like an unnecessary jab, considering I haven't taken a shot at anyone or...

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    My guess is that less than 10% of Americans know what that parable is and a fraction of that would be able to understand and apply it.

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    Not sure of the comparison between an entity receiving a PPP loan (and it subsequently being forgiven), and student loan forgiveness for individuals. When businesses or entities applied for PPP Loans, it was for the purpose of retaining employees during a period in which governments were...

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    They way people use the term fascism varies wildly. I wouldn't necessarily call any of this fascism, but there are elements of authoritarianism, anti-liberalism, and autocracy. Again, I'm not agreeing that it is fascism, but with such a broad term people are going to use it how they see fit. I...

    Jazz and Knicks discussing Donovan Mitchell trade per Shams Charania and Tony Jones

    I'm guessing NY would need to send some salaries out to LA.

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Saw on RealGM that there is some discussion of Bogey going to Raptors. Might be waiting for the Mitchell trade to get done. I have no idea what Bogey can bring back in a trade. A first and second? Have to assume he has a little more value than Royce.

    Woj says the Jazz are listening to offers for Mitchell

    Not sure Phoenix or Brookly would go for this.
