    Let’s say the Jazz advance to the 2nd round and take Houston 7 games...

    Do the Jazz simply do everything they can to resign Favors, match any offer on Exum and basically bring the same team back heading into next season? I really think the evidence we have available leans in favor of doing just that. Once healthy, the Jazz have been on a pace that would see them...

    Official Round 1 Predictions: Jazz-V-Thunder

    Is it official just because I titled it that way? I’ll let the mods decide. Here’s my thoughts: -While I think it’s pretty unanimous that we all love what has gone on with this team lately and that we’re only at the beginning of what looks to be a sustainable ascension towards future title...

    Did Michael Bennet lie??

    Sorry, I can't embed a link at the moment but I just read an article by Clay Travis on his Outkick The Coverage site and he puts Bennett on blast, calls him out as a flat out liar, and goes through the possible evidence to defend his claim. Some of the tidbits: -Bennett claims that he...

    The Holy War 2017

    Yup, the rivalry that will just not die no matter how many times Chris Hill tries, is back for another round. Things are looking pretty grim in Cougarland. Can they bounce back? Can they find the very elusive Ty Detmer offense in it's natural habitat just in time to avoid yet another loss...

    Could a new era of home court dominance be on the horizon?

    Ok, it's the offseason and I'm officially bored. The Jazz posted a very respectable record of 29-12 at home last year and while I doubt we'll ever see the home dominance that we saw during the height of the Stockton/Malone era, there's a couple of things that have happened this offseason that...

    Has a team ever had two players finish 1-2 in DPOY voting??

    Because I feel like the Jazz could see this happen in the coming years. Obviously, Rudy is already there. I'm projecting a bit on Donovan Mitchell, but with his tenacity, knack for causing turnovers, and his wing span allowing him to guard 3 positions, I could easily see this kid quickly gaining...

    Can you feel it?!?!

    A dull, almost silent roar rumbles faintly in the background. The earth slightly shifts beneath your feet, just enough to make you question if it's actually moving at all. A chill that you cannot account for runs up your back. The happening is upon us. Yes Jazz fans, we have just entered the...

    Draft night 2017 might be the single biggest turning point in Utah Jazz history.

    Listening to sports radio yesterday as they discussed the fact that a current Western Conference GM has gone on record as saying the belief league wide is that Hayward is as good as gone. That was followed up by Spence Checketts saying he spent the weekend texting an individual that's somewhat...

    I'm 100% Certain the Jazz will do this...

    Trade for a PG prior to Free Agency and let Hill walk. Obviously, while trades can't officially be finalized before the moratorium is lifted on July 6, the Jazz can come to a trade agreement with another team(s) prior to the start of Free Agency. Too much is at stake with Hayward. Hill is...

    Hill and Hayward: The Package Deal

    It's pretty clear after the exit interviews that Hill and Hayward are most likely a package deal as far as a return to Utah is concerned. While I would be fine with signing Hill to a 2-year deal, I don't see any scenario in which he signs for less than 4 years. IMO, you don't win championships...

    Game 6 Chant? Need Help

    Ok, I realize the Jazz can't afford to overlook the Clippers in game 6. Coincidentally, I can and will. So with 2 minutes to go and the Jazz up 12, what chant do we start? Is it as easy as "Beat Golden State"? It's quite a bit more clumsy than "Beat L.A.", but I don't see any other viable...

    The Great Rap Debate

    So this is a carryover from the Jazz-Pacer game thread that just got closed because a Rap debate broke out. I pretty much drew the ire of everyone involved in the discussion as I questioned the artistic integrity of Rap music as a whole. I was called a stupid racist amongst other things, told I...

    In-State College Football Picks

    I figured it would be fun to do a thread picking the in-state games each week. Maybe the mods will sticky and everybody can keep a running tally of their record. Just straight up picks (no spread). Weber State @ Utah State- I'm gonna pick Weber State in the upset. The Wildcats return damn...

    Gordon Monson, *******?

    So this past week RSL revoked Gordon's press pass with the club citing that he had a vested interest in going negative on the orginization (they've since backed off). While I think RSL was being extremely thin skinned and banning media sets a dangerous precedent, it got me thinking about Gordo's...

    Technically, we can't be done, right?

    Forgive me, I'm not a capologist, but aren't we still like $8 million below the salary floor? Did the Hill and JJ deals take care of that?

    Hatfield and Charles West

    Obviously, D. Hatfield being dismissed from the U of U football team is semi old news, but I see a few parallels with BYU recruit Charles West and I was just interested to see some BYU fans opinions. Hatfield is accused of robbing somebody at knifepoint and at the very least admitted to...

    If Drafting Myles Means We Don't Go After Milsap....

    Then I'm all in on this pick. I've never liked the idea of Paul at the 3 and I definitely don't like the idea of moving Favors to facilitate a Sap return. I'm gonna go ahead and trust Lindsay/Snyder because those two have been absolute money so far. Yes, outside shooting, a back-up center...

    Now that the match is official, how does Hayward live up to the contract?

    Basically, what does Gordon need to do for Jazz fans to feel like this was the right move? For me, I see Gordon with the ability to play the Scottie Pippen role on a Utah Jazz team, basically becoming a facilitator for the likes of Favors, Exum, Burks, etc. Now, please don't make the mistake...
