Marvin- Mom had a Stroke during the season. First time playing stretch 4, wasn't able to prepare for it last offseason due to injury. said it's something he will work on this offseason for next year. First time as an unrestricted free agent, Asked if he will go look for a ring replied he "prefers to be comfortable" Said he likes being in Utah. To me sounds like he would like to come back

I can't get 1280's web feed to work. I had it going 20 minutes ago, but now I can't get a connection. Anyone else having a hard time streaming it? I can't get the phone app to work either.

I got it to work. The default 1280AM feed is down, but on the right side you can select to open the 97.5FM feed which is working.

I'd be OK with Williams coming back in a bench role.

Jerem says he can be 4 or 3, but that there would probably be more minutes at the 3. The 3 should be his goal in offseason. Work on handles, lateral quickness, and 3 pt shot. I still see Jeremy's value as a great backup 3. At the 4, he's just doing himself and our other 4's and team a disservice.

Marvin also talked about how hard it has been for him to defend the 4 when guys are 20-30% times stronger than him. Says he'll play either, but wherever he goes he wants to be comfortable. Said he is a better defender at the 3. Personal opinion, he is only a 3.

@sluhm: Source: Decision on Tyrone Corbin's future with the Jazz could come as soon as this weekend.

I would have thought the Jazz, a classy organization, would want to give Corbin the bad news immediately so he could have more time to search for a new job...why string it out another 4 days?

"He's Jabari freaking Parker."

Lots of work to do, debriefing players, managment, cleaning out the desk and saying good byes.

Radio heads: "Enes is a worst defender than Memo ever was. In fact Memo today, out of the league for 3 years and no Achilles is a better defender than Enes."

Then they talked about Enes trade value.

Favors. Challenged by the coaches to be in better shape and work on offense in off season.

He will work out more in salt lake this summer with the coaches and strength and conditioning coach. Will go to Santa Barbara.

Doesn't like playing center, it everyone is taller him, and heavier. Prefers to play pf.

Team can be better next season if they get better chemistry and commit to follow defense schemes.

Hayward says he'll tell FO in exit interview that our pace of play needs to increase to utilize our athleticism.

I've been saying this. Kanter and afavors CAN run, they just need to be told to. Burke is a halfcourt PG (in college), but he doesn't have to stay that way. Neto can run if Burke can't or won't. RJ couldn't really anymore, but he'll be gone. A. Gordon and Wiggins are perfect at SF for running, Parker is not.

You don't think Parker is good at running the floor or you've seen it with your own eyes? For the record, I disagree. While the dude isn't a freak athlete, some of you are going WAY too far in thinking and saying he's an oaf.

What a Nancy. If he can't play center, cut him loose and we'll let Gobert play alongside Kanter. Jazz need a C, if Favors is going to be a ***** about it we don't need him.

Perhaps if the price is right and he's willing and able to back up the 3 and 4. For what he offers, I just think the Jazz can draft that player at #23 who will have more upside and be considerably CHEAPER. Jazz need a real impact FA for $8-9M (like Atlanta got with Millsap), then backfill with their picks and vets near the minimum.


Kanter-Draft Pick-Evans
Favors-Gobert
Free Agent-Draft Pick (in some order)
Hayward-Burks
Burke-Neto-Garrett

That's 12 players, not counting Utah's 2nd round pick or guys like Murphy, Thomas, Clark, etc.

I won't argue the order here, as obviously Burks could start at the 2, with Hayward at the 3. And Kanter may or may not come off the bench. Some of that also depends on the pick: get Parker or Wiggins and maybe they start. Guys like Embiid or Aaron Gordon would likely come off the bench initially. Or Smart could replace Neto or Garrett. In any case, I think Lindsey will look to bring in a major asset either as a FA or via trade. He knows we don't just need aging vets to fill holes. Have to get a core 8; the remaining 6-7 are not that difficult to fill in after that.
