I think it's sad how many armchair GM's there are on this board who know so much more than DL. Personally, I'm glad we still have Exum. Top five in the league in downhill speed, top five in defensive capability, and was really starting to reward Jazz brass faith when the latest injury happened...

I think Philly gave too much. I like Harris, but between the picks and Shamet (who will be in the running for runnerup ROY now), this was a huge gamble. Does make Philadelphia instant contenders. I agree that Butler will not be back with Philly next season.

I can understand being worried about Conley for durability and financial reasons, but stop pretending he's not what the Jazz need. Moves the needle a fair bit if he stays healthy. At this point, the Jazz need to do something to bring in someone of his caliber, and the small few available arent...

I really liked the acquisition of Rubio since I couldn't believe he had a positive plus/minus while with the Wolves. That had to mean he was awesome. Well, he's a good dude. I hope we get Conley, although I'd rather have Holiday. I think Conley would help more than some of Jazzfanz think...

Ahh, Alecia Moore would be proud.

You're right Fish! He played well defensively. That's more than I would say of anyone else. It was a brutal showing.

Made the mistake of going to that game...Ouch. 8 hours driving, $300 for tickets, and the highlight was the halftime show, which sucks in case you needed that clarified. When a game starts with Faried dominating it's going to be a long night. Jazz were slow/sluggish/awful. Favors played well...

For defensive prowess alone, Jrue would be a huge get for Utah. Throw in that he can score, shoot, and create and Anyone outside of Donovan and Rudy could and should be used to acquire someone of that magnitude. The others in the discussion are not on equal ground with Jrue, but would be nice...

Love is exactly what the Jazz need next to Gobert. It's just money. We're paying Ingles somewhere around 15 and he's extremely limited athletically, and is sometimes completely ineffective if the other team knows how to play him but is probably still worth the money because of the system. Love...

Donovan is in a slump; no question. But it really is related to his summer of not being able to do much intense basketball duty because of the boot, and his large tour of the world. He clearly is not as quick or explosive this year, which results in a high rate of his shots being blocked, missed...

The Cavs got the better player out of this deal. He's also younger. He'll be starting by his 10th game in a Cavaliers uniform. Burks is probably the best Cav. Because of Quin's short leash, Burks never really became the player he is capable of being. Having said that, he was mostly really good...

I really liked Burks and felt he was badly mistreated by Corbin and Quin. Quins short leash was inexplicable and undeserved when comparing the leash given to Mitchell/Oneal/Rubio/etc, Burks deserved better. Cleveland is a place where he can shine if it's there, if he doesn't I'll just have to...

Please Jazz fans, boo Robyn's husband mercilessly. I can't make it to the game despite really wanting to so I could savagely unleash pent up frustration and anger, and we need everybody to really step up and let the vitriol fly. The more embarrassing, the better. He crapped on the entire state...

Mitchell is definitely not right. Quickness/explosiveness is way behind last year. I know he had a big celebrity status to nurture this summer and was going everywhere, but his foot injury prevented him from doing the things needed to come in and dominate right away. He's good enough he can...

Even though the Jazz lost, the sky isn't falling. Mitchell had a historically bad, for him, fourth quarter, and not just shooting. If that continues, the Jazz are in for a long season; it won't. Favors was terrible on both ends of the floor and looked uninterested at times. Ingles was better...

How can you not watch the Celtics play and think how lucky the Jazz are that they don't have $150 million wrapped up in that dude. Also, there's a wrong and right way to handle business with people that have nurtured, coddled, embraced, and taken care of you, he did it wrong and had instant...

Sloan was definitely not keeping up with the changing offensive systems and the evolving use of the 3 pt shot. I personally hated how the Jazz defended the three point line. I haven't put much blame on Deron for anything other than his rapid decline. When you consider what Sloan was able to...

Exum played very well in parts of the Rockets series, got to the hoop and made plays as well as any Jazz player. He also played better defense than anyone. It takes a real hater to say that he isn't a rotation player, because hopefully no one is that dumb. I still believe he will be great. He is...

He's not in basketball shape yet. You can't play hard on both ends and be good offensively when you are not in condition. He'll get there. He is stealing at a decent clip though.

I like it quite well. Admit that I don't watch that much college ball, but Grayson is a good b-ball player, a very good athlete, and will contribute immediately, plus he's happy to be in Utah.
