    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    The entire culture is comfortable in convincing itself it knows so much more than it does, completely unaware that they’ve been convinced by themselves. Repeat it enough times and it’s a foregone conclusion to skip x draft and start stocking up on 2036 because that’s where we all know the real...

    NBA Summer League Wild Overreaction Thread

    I read this a few times hoping I'm not misunderstanding you. Donovan? Herro? Morant? Trae Young? Bane? Just guys off the top of my head. In my bias, it seems like nowadays you can actually use a rookie to be in a rotation, whereas the doctrine of yesteryear was this was a taboo violation of the...

    Burying the dumb **** about Clayton Jr not being "athletic"

    What I learned, above all else, from this video is that he was teammates with Ben Handlogten’s son. @Handlogten's Heros this deserves its own podcast. Kid was born in December of 2003, too, so he’s a Jazz kid.

    NBA Summer League Wild Overreaction Thread

    I think one of the things that’s helped me mostly check out from the draft over the past few years is the inflated value placed on the perceived physical or “unteachable” components of a player. It becomes the most alluring thing that distracts from certain smaller issues like… can someone...

    Jazz Bear has cancer

    Wasn’t firing him the downfall of our franchise? Our very own curse of the Bambino or curse of the goat?

    If you could only listen to five songs for the rest of you life - What would they be?

    Of all them, that’s the one you take issue with?

    If you could only listen to five songs for the rest of you life - What would they be?

    "Every Breath You Take" The Police "End of the Innocence" Don Henley "Boys of Summer" Don Henley "Broken Wings" Mr. Mister "Another Day in Paradise" Phil Collins This list could change and this was just off the top of my head. These songs probably cluster together in some fashion so there are...

    Well then I guess the biggest priority of this offseason is making sure we don't obtain a "PG who can drive against a press and not turn the ball over."

    First Chinese player in Jazz history!

    I’m not sure what the three body problem is, if this is like my idea of a machine that hybridizes two players, but goes an extra step and makes it three, or if this is the ménage á trois problem that George and Jerry struggled with, but I’d have doubts about this being the solution to our...
