The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

The Kings did the most Kingsy thing ever. Adding Westbrook to this roster is a wild choice. Free Devin Carter or Keon Ellis!
When you mentioned Ellis a couple of weeks ago, I went and did my homework. You know I like a pitbull, so I'm in love. I just don't know how we would find minutes for everybody (especially if we were to acquire him by trading a big).

Slot some of the bigger forwards to play minutes at the 5 (which clears up room in our forwards-logjam). It actually clean things up nicely since we have a greater need for guards than big forwards.
 
- Javon Small looks really good.
- Kon can really shoot it
- McNeeley looking a little better than last time I saw him.
- Coward is struggling to figure out how to contribute.
- GG hasn't made much progress since his rookie year

Kon vs Small jump ball was entertaining
 
That's why I have a hard time seeing the Hornets with Ball, Sexton, Bridges, Miller, Dinwiddie, Tre Mann and Grant Williams finishing below the Jazz.
Agreed. I don't think we need to worry about them.
Plus they play in the east

John Collins 24 points off the bench on 7-8 shooting and +24 in the box.
I get Sexton having no value, but I'm still peeved the NBA got so cold on Collins. He is very good! Should have gotten us a late first rounder value wise imo, but I get that teams are kind of pick strapped with a handful of teams owning a third of all future picks (*Warning* Not accurate numbers, just pulled out of my *** but I bet it's in that ballpark)
 
Collins was a cap mechanics issue, it’s just hard to move that kind of salary. Clips gave up Powell in that deal, who is still a very good and valued prospect player.

He's long for a guard so can play either spot. He is not a pg really... but he could initiate as one allowing Key or Brice to handle some actions. Ellis is an easy fit and would work well with any of our smallish guards. If we acquired a dynamic two guard we could get jumbo maybe. I watched them last nigh and he is completely lost in whatever the hell it is they are doing. Under Brown he fit great with the other guys. Its a true cluster F there. Get good parts and figure it out later?

I am not convinced we 100% ride into next season with Key/Brice/Cody... Ellis brings the defense and shooting but not the playmaking. IDK bring me Carter or Ellis and lets see what we got.
 
Keon Ellis is barely getting any minutes in the preseason. Now add RWB to the mix lol.
No Monk last night either. I also think Christie may suck as a coach.
