    Disgruntled Kessler?

    Team USA seemed to hurt Kessler's confidence. In hindsight, he should have stayed home and worked on hand strength, a midrange game and FT shooting. Instead he came in thinking he could shoot corner 3s and clearly he was not. He needs to see this offseason as an opportunity, hopefully he makes...

    Disgruntled Kessler?

    It was actually a joke that Hardy's wife was looser than Hearsky's mom. And that crosses the line...

    If KAT becomes available should Jazz be interested?

    Roster construction has a lot to do with this. KAT is very efficient, but Ant needs the ball and has become their number. And Gobert and KAT together has been a mixed bag. Could KAT and Lauri persuade other players to sign here? I'm guessing it would be a tough sell, especially with what...

    Who should the Jazz bring back next year?

    I think it was doing them a favor getting some burn while trying to lose. Ideally they will not bring any of them back. Luka does some good things, but needs to learn to shoot. When he puts arc on his 3 it tends to go in more. Not sure how he hasn't figured that out at this stage.

    My buddy Charlie Brown's mom is exactly like that too.

    Ahh, the classic Ainge almost trade that would change a franchise. Like the 800th time he has said something similar. Almost Ainge at it again.

    Favorite Cut of Meat

    I love a good Prime Tomahawk Ribeye with proper marbling. That is my go-to at The Palm, which I frequent. I should be getting my caricature on their wall next year. At home a Prime New York or Prime Porterhouse is my go to. I love good BBQ too. Nothing like some good burnt ends.

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    I once saw a movie called Maximum Overdrive when a comet caused all the cars and electronics become self-aware and evil. Maybe an eclipse can have the same effect and she was shooting at them.

    What do the Jazz need to do to get back to winning and bring home some rings?

    A few national publications (SI, Bleacher that I am aware of) had Parker in the top 5, and many had Duncan declining but most still had him top 10-15. Ginobili in the 20s for sure. And Kawhi was still up and coming but damn good. Parker was damn good around that time. I'd put him top 10 myself...

    Are they killer rabbit type snow bunnies? They should be the Blizz to match the Jazz

    What do the Jazz need to do to get back to winning and bring home some rings?

    On paper, a team comprised of 5 guys with an overall offense of 110 and defense of 100 should be able to be a team with a 105 offense and 100 defense even if that team has a prime Lebron (face of the league type player). However, as we have all seen time and time again, the "big" stars get key...

    Brice and Taylor were both injured and missed training camp, and both have shown some good signs. Let's see how prepared they are coming into year two. I think they'll both look better. Key seems to have hit a wall. His shot is way off and confidence is down. He looks tired.

    About as close as it gets. Betting on the spread has at least added a bit of interest over the past few weeks.

    The open 3 and open dunk is a bold strategy Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for them in the draft.

    What do the Jazz need to do to get back to winning and bring home some rings?

    I just want to see them win. You'd rather die without seeing them win a few chips or knowing (hypothetically) if they moved to LV they would win multiple chips? I'm not saying I want them to move or that they should. I am saying that they would be a much more desireable FA destination if they...

    Just pointing out he was a top-5 type player before winning in Toronto.
