    Players You Enjoy Watching. Players You Hate Watching.

    My favorite players to watch currently are: 1) Ochai - I want him to get more. More starts. More playing time. More looks from teammates. More shots up. I don’t understand why he doesn’t play more. He is athletic and engaged on defense. He moves the ball, cuts, runs hard in transition, and...

    Get Detroit on the Line.

    The Pistons have got something we need... floor generals. They have Cunningham, Thompson, Ivey, Burks, Monte Morris, and Hayes they need to get minutes for. I think at least one of Morris or Hayes gets the squeze and I would love to have either of them. Last year I was beating the drum to trade...

    Sexton Physical Rumors?

    I heard a rumor that Sexton is having issues with his physical. I have been busy the last week and not paying attention to the Jazz, has there been other rumbling about this? Is there any speculation why the trade hasn’t been completed/announced by the Jazz? I don’t believe it, but it would be...

    Headband Curse To Blaim For Team Under Performing!

    First, let's all agree that the team is under performing and that the major cause of said under performance is a lack of on court unity. Next, let's also agree that much of the most egregious under performing has been 1) when Conley is in the rotation, and 2) amplified over the recent stretch...

    Jazz Mid-Range Money Ball?

    Does it seem like the Jazz are hunting mid-range shots more than in the past? For example: Mitchell seems to take more pull-ups now, Clarkson seems to have the green light to work just outside the restricted area, Bojan has ran a lot of post-ups recently, and of course Mudiay is making a living...

    Line-ups/Rotations You'd Like to See

    Jazz aren't clicking yet. Some of this is because the team is working on chemistry as well as understanding the system (the Davis injury has created a huge hole as well). But I think some of it has to do with rotations and line-ups. In other words, I don't think our ingredients are trash, but we...

    Mitchell Interior Improvement

    https://www.sbnation.com/nba/2019/10/2/20849617/donovan-mitchell-utah-jazz-improvement-team-usa-derrick-rose-comparison This was a really good article. It talks about how DRose made a leap in his 3rd year by improving his drives and finishing at the rim and what Mitchell need to change to do...

    White Privilege VS POC Disadvantage

    I believe the term "white privilege" is counter productive to race relations as it has a negative/accusatory tone and many people think it suggests whites are being granted something that should be taken away from them. However, it seems to me that the issue is actually the opposite, that people...

    Julius Randle > D'Angelo Russell

    I think the Jazz would be better off signing Randall than DLo. My reasoning is below. I am curious how hot a take this is. Defense: Randle > DLo - I don't know what the stats say, but my eyes think that right now DLo and Randall provide similar defensive value. However, I rank Randle higher...

    How Did Draft Lottery Impact Jazz

    The draft lottery was crazy in a fun way. How do you think it impacted the Jazz free agency or trade targets? Here are the draft results: Number) Team (movement up/down) 1) Pelicans (+7) 2) Grizzlies (+7) 3) Knicks (-2) 4) Lakers (+7) 5) Cavaliers (-3) 6) Suns(-3) 7) Bulls (-3) 8) Hawks (-3) 9)...

    Anyone want to fight about CFP expansion?

    If anyone reading this believes that expansion of the playoffs would not be beneficial to college football (including both P5 and G5 conferences), I would love to hear why. I don't actually expect a response, because I don't think there is a single sensible reason. The situation with UCF has...

    Good HoopsHype Piece on Gobert

    I thought this was a good article on Gobert. The best part is towards the end when he discusses winning championships and Hayward's pending free agency. The guy seems like the strong, outgoing personality who will hold people accountable that the team needs...

    All-Star Game Intensity

    I just came across a video of an old college wrestling All-Star match (link below) and was blown away at how incredible it was to watch two of the greatest in a sport compete against each other. What is amazing is that this is an exhibition match and so had no effect on either wrestlers official...
