    Wow, me either. I don't remember ever seeing anything like this before.

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    It looks like Isaiah Joe is the only one on this list that doesn't have a longer term contract. I've watched him enough to know that he could definitely take on a larger offensive role. Maybe OKC feels like they are going to have too many mouths to feed and is willing to let him walk (I doubt...

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    I was actually thinking about him, lol. Here are a few names from the 2020 draft: - Isaiah Joe - Aaron Nesmith - Payton Pritchard

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    Is there anyone out there that could be the next Brunson? I.E. underutilized player that could have a huge bump with increased usage?

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    The other place that was getting mentioned was Dallas, but I don't think they have any cap space. My best guess is that he goes back to LA. I think they find a new coach and pretend that it will fix everything.

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    Some national sports guys have been talking about Lebron to the Sixers. I'm looking at their cap space for next year and they should be able to swing that. Their only problem is that they have almost nobody under contract, so they are going to need to sign a bunch of guys.

    Harris is obviously getting a huge pay cut. What do we think, MLE?

    2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

    It seems like every top prospect has some huge red flag. Locke was talking about how Castle, Buzelis, and Holland are some of the worst shooters he's tracked over the last 5 years and that basically nobody with their shooting profile has done much in the league.

    It would obviously be great to move up in the draft, but if you only get to move up in one draft, this might be the worst one ever. The whole top 10 or so is very flat.

    2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

    Probably the one time where there is an advantage to being on EST vs PST. I believe the lottery starts at 8pm my time, which should be after any mother's day dinner/festivities, I should be in the clear.

    The Draft lottery is 10 days away on May 12th (Mother's Day) . Dear NBA, my Mom has asked for a top 4 pick for the Jazz for mother's day. Please do not disappoint her. Please also note that this will be her requested mother's day gift for 2025 and 2026. TIA.

    Best things about the 2024 Playoffs

    I understood and wasn't disagreeing with you. I think Luka will still be the best offensive player of that group in 5 years. The others might already have a better impact on winning than him because of their defense.

    Best things about the 2024 Playoffs

    The main thing with Luka is he doesn't impact his team on both sides of the court like the others you mentioned, but as far as being an offensive force, I think he's still way ahead of them.

    Best Playoff Outcomes for Jazz Trades

    I wonder what Miami does from here? I'm guessing they try and run it back and hope for better health, but that Rozier trade was dumb in my opinion. I wouldn't mind taking Jovic off their hands...

    2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

    FWIW, I don't worry too much about off the bounce shooting numbers from one and done guys. Younger guys are usually not good at this and usually get better as they develop. I also think the more interesting number is the volume rather than the percentage. The volume helps you to put in to...

    Ask me some Jazz questions

    I really think the whole point is that you can only develop so many young players and so we don't want to over extend our ability to develop guys properly. At least that's where I think he was coming from.

    The other way to take his comment was that we would focus on drafting older/more ready players
