I am more and more in the mindset of "trade all the old players and role players you can and start over" every day. Ingles going down may have just made it permanent.
It’s not a narrative, it’s a pattern of behavior that’s proven and true.
If we never see him play in a Jazz uniform but he plays in the Australian league, I will fly to see his first game.
Seriously…..it’s laughable how much you’ll try. Everyone can see what happened.Zanik said Elliott wanted to do other things.
If Don wanted him fired and had that much pull, it would have happened right away.
Utah Jazz make training staff changes for new season, as Donovan Mitchell says his ankle is 100%
Donovan Mitchell's ankle injury was one aspect that put a damper on their performance last playoffs — an injury that proved to be a controversial one. The Jazz have made changes to their training staff; meanwhile, Mitchell's worked out to 100% with his own training staff in Miami.www.sltrib.com

Injuries don’t just happen, guys. They only happen when someone did something wrong. It’s like COVID. People don’t just get COVID, only people with moral failings. ACLs don’t just blow out. At least they won’t blow out if you’re under the care of a great team doctor. Bad medical teams are the only pathways for injuries to happen. Much like COVID, we could live in an injury-free world if we really wanted to.

This is one hell of a midseason collapse we are facing.
I'm strangely feeling the opposite. I'm pretty ****ing sentimental. Feeling the win-one-for-the-Gipper vibes really strongly right now.
I don't think so. Jazz will get Gobert and Mitchell back. House and Paschall will take Ingles' minutes. Conley has been playing pretty well. Jazz will still end up in the 3 or 4 seed.
Jazz need to trade Clarkson and be open to trading Royce depending on the deal.
What if the Gipper has to be moved as an expiring contract?
We are playing small-ball, switch defense and Rudy Gay decides to play in a drop. I thought he was the most experienced guy with the small ball and all but his feel hasn't been good all season.
Jazz generally execute the switch well, mostly because it's the easiest 'scheme' to play, but it's the on-ball defending that's the problem. If Gay is going to slack on small-ball, what's even the point?

Like... winning Joe a ring would be even sicker than the championship itself is how I'm feeling right now.
Nah. Let's spare everyone the indignity.

This team has been reliably terrible and painful to watch for about 10-12 games. I haven't turned off this many games early since the Jazz traded Deron Williams. And, yes, I know that both Rudy and Donovan have missed time in that run, but the team has barely been competitive against teams even our backups should be able to beat. They need the all-star break to get healthy, and then they need to stop running such predictable sets. I'm sure that the scouting reports say to just stay at home when the Jazz start to drive and kick. No one is actually threatening at the rim, especially without Mitchell. In fact, Bogey is a turnover machine on drives to the basket. When the "blender" starts, just stay at home on the 3-point line and wait to steal the ball from a crappy mid-air pass. We went from having the league's most dangerous offense, to not scoring 100 points in games. Are the Jazz REALLY this bad? or are they just in a rut?
