    Resign Conley... do or don’t

    I think these numbers are pretty close to where we should look to resign him. Even if we have to step up to $13m I think we're still in good shape, but your absolutely spot on the fact we need to walk at anything over $15m. He ads a ton of value to what we were able to do this season and we're...

    I miss Ostertag

    Is this thread for real? Better than Gobert? What's wrong with you?

    March of the HYDRA!!

    I think it's safe to say that they're feeding off wins. We have the best record in the NBA. Back to the grind is what every team goes through since the creation of basketball. 3.5 game lead is as substantial as it gets, 2019-2020 Western conference best team L.A. Lakers were 3.5 games over the...

    March of the HYDRA!!

    LMAO, you're nervous now? With this team? On this run? You should've seen when fans on this site thought that a rookie Gordon Hayward was the answer to LeBron in his prime.

    Wing Defender in the Buyout/Trade Market?

    No doubt about it, the guy has talent. He's still so young and has so much we haven't seen. Your right about Quin needing to play him a little more, it would give him the experience he needs. There's no doubt that there is also a lot of development and training behind the scenes that we don't...

    Ben Simmons strengthening his case for Defensive Player of the Year

    I honestly think he's THE most overrated player in the NBA. He hasn't made an ounce of progress since his rookie year and is still the exact same player. The only difference is he's getting paid more that $30 million a year to do what he did as a rookie. That's not an exaggeration, he's...

    Elijah Millsap: Lindsey in exit interview: “if u say one more word, I’ll cut your Black *** and send you back to Louisiana”.

    You better recall your facts if that's what you heard about why we celebrate black history month. The beauty about the internet is that you can research anything you want to. The downside is that anybody can post their opinions and make them look like facts because they have the opportunity to...

    Wing Defender in the Buyout/Trade Market?

    A lot of 1-5 year players appear that way to me too. I think it might be because the game is evolving and changing so fast, that they have a hard time adapting. And being able to adapt is what's separating the leaders from the pack.

    Deathuary is coming

    The beautiful thing is that the Jazz have already faced the most difficult part of their schedule. The challenge now, will not to take our lighter schedule for granted.

    How does it feel to be the best team in the NBA?!

    The last time that I was this excited about the Jazz was the 1996-1997 season. I feel that we are destined to win the chip. I've been waiting my whole life for this. I remember thinking we had a chance in 92, 93, 94, 95, and of course 96, but this year is something special!

    Ben Simmons strengthening his case for Defensive Player of the Year

    I also heard that Ben Simmons is entering the 3 point shooting contest. There is nothing that the man cannot do!

    Bryon Russell = best Jazz SF all time

    Is this list for real!!?? You mean to tell me that Adrian Dantley just gets left off the top 5 Utah Jazz SF's all together? Even though he is our third all time scoring leader. And also you would put Hayward as #1 over Joe Ingles who has made more 3's than any other player (regardless of...

    Wing Defender in the Buyout/Trade Market?

    I honestly don't see any player (at the moment) as a good buyout addition to our team. We're thriving and an addition could throw off the chemistry and tempo. However, it would also be great to add depth just incase someone gets injured, but I don't think it's something we need to entertain...

    Did bringing in a new owner save the Jazz?

    It Absolutely helps us. The biggest value will be added during free agency. When a primetime free agent hits the market and he and his agent starts to shop teams, it helps to have someone like Ryan Smith. For one he's a fan of basketball and is ambitious as anybody. Although new, he's ambitious...

    Next Year Donovan's Starting Backcourt Partner Will Be?

    I think JC is a real option, but isn't a part of the poll.

    The Jazz sign Romaro Gill!

    Wait another week and you'll see him get excited that the Jazz traded Jeff Malone to the 76'ers for Jeff Hornacek. There may or may not be a peanut in his head.

    What precautions would you take if ownership changed right before you signed a contract through the rest of your prime?

    Back to Ignore? So you ignored my posts tuned in and then ignored again? I don't even know who you are. Gail says thank you for your support and for helping her with her groceries across the street. I'll see you soon when you tune in next time,,,,,, again. Bye. (In proper spelling)

    What precautions would you take if ownership changed right before you signed a contract through the rest of your prime?

    The bottom line is our new owner Ryan is a blessing to the franchise. Especially during free agency. We have to bring in talent all the time who meet the owner or management of our team as well as others. If you're a young athlete wanting to win. And you go to Miami, you get the great Pat...

    Lonzo Ball

    Is this real!? Lonzo Ball couldn't back up a shadow. Plus the constant embarrassment from his father's fat mouth. Not to mention he can't shoot, play defense or be a playmaker (as you state as his strong points) Is this a real post?? Out of all the potential PG's to discuss, Lonzo Ball is...

    [Woj] Donovan Mitchell signs 5/195M max designated rookie extension with the Jazz

    There is no There is no negotiation. You need to understand this. We are Utah. Who the hell is going to sign with us? Nobody. If you disagree, than why haven't we had big signings before? We get talent through the draft. We got lucky with Spida. And with Gobert. A star player isn't paid...
