    Jazz trade John collins

    Now do the Lauri trade. The only logical next step.

    Keeping Lauri seems increasingly pointless

    Lauri is as good as gone. Playing with mostly rookie deal guys will only keep his asset value sinking. There's no point for now to keep him. I expect two first rounders and salary fillers as teams will know this exact thing. Maybe Jazz will get someone decent young guy in a trade as well, and...

    Collin Sexton traded to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

    This is stupid af. Collin isn't super valuable, because there's a lot of small scoring guards with awful defense... but this kind of trade makes almost fun of the poor guy, because he is still really damn efficient. F you Jazz office you suck.

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    What war with Iran? It's special operation to protect American interests. Just like Putin over Ukraine. Is it that hard to understand? /S

    Will Lauri be traded on or before draft day?

    No. I've been saying for past two seasons Lauri will be traded earliest at 2026 trade deadline. Now that he had a bad season I'm even more certain about that. Originally my thought process was they want to see his fit with the 2025 pick and see if the new piece is a massively NBA ready and soon...

    All-Defensive team. Hmmmm ….

    Ahh... Well I'll be damned. I thought they have lost their mind and was so in the zone of recliner of rage, I completely forgot to check that out before lashing out!

    All-Defensive team. Hmmmm ….

    What the actual F is this? Where is Caruso? These people voting these things are such casuals, lmao. Alex's on/off ratings are insane. He single handedly can enter into the game and completely turn around 10 point deficit by his contagious effort and energy. Dude can ball deny ducking Nikola...

    The Jazz have found their magic formula to build.

    I think some of them stays if they can't sell Lauri with the price Danny hopes for. They can't be trading all the other vets while keeping Lauri, bc it most probably means there's only a low change of his value going up on becoming season vs. increased chance of the value of that asset getting...

    Has our future position gotten better, worse, or stayed the same since trading Rudy/Donovan?

    Worse. They didnt tank properly from the go, and then Ainge helped Wolves become better by trading Conley there to stabilize them. Worsening those Wolves assets. I give D- for Ainge.

    Game Thread NBA Draft Lottery - May 12, 2025

    The only wày I will believe in fair lottery is 1000 ping pong balls in a lotto machine, with a live stream and so we see the amount of balls match the odds. They don't do it bc it makes fixing practically impossible.

    Why the Jazz were so bad defensively?

    This isn't very hard. Already mentioned earlier the sad fact of either small or just very bad defenders running point (Sexton, JC, George). Their ball security isn't very good..Lots of turnovers creates transition buckets. Add the fact how guys like JC or George mostly haven't even tried to stop...

    Why the Jazz were so bad defensively?

    Jazz has historically bad back court defenders, what else could happen? It's all on purpose. They traded away the only really good one in Kris Dunn. Clarkson, Sexton, George that has gotten tons of minutes in these tanking seasons are all god awful defenders and too small as well. E: And yeah...

    Project Hail Mary

    I've always wrote the endings of my novels as the first thing. Yes, they might have seen minor tweaks after I wrote down the rest of the story. But it helps a lot to make sure the ending is well done and draws the story together. I suspect the author's that have poor endings, just go with the...

    Project Hail Mary

    Anytime I read something is "fantastic" or "mind blown", I end up being disappointed, bc people have already "pre-blown" my mind and it can't be re-blown quite easily.

    Will Hardy Extension

    I like this extension. Offensively, I think he can be a good coach. Defensively, it's really hard to judge bc of two factors: firstly, Jazz has been tanking either half the season or the whole season all his time with Jazz, and secondly, Jazz have had awful guard pairings defensively. Clarkson...

    2025 Playoffs Chat & Chill Thread

    It's also something I worry about my homie Lauri, when he finally makes the playoffs in some point. If games go to lot of half court plays and there's less room than in regular season, aside his 3pt shot, there will be issues unless he improves his handle.
