Full tank mode next year makes zero sense. IF you had any interest in full tank mode the time to do was two years ago. It is go time. Ainge might be blowing smoke about big game hunting but there is no way that the current FO does not realize that people are getting restless with no plan in...

The reason Mutombo had better scoring numbers was because of how different the style of play was in that era. He was not better offensively than Rudy.

Hard to know what the unvarnished truth is from Danny since he will rarely talk to the Media. I heard the talking heads on 1280 say that there has never been a FO that was so inaccessible and they had lots of examples.

No to LBJ, definite yes to Booker.

Watching Rudy and Mike advance and seeing the Lakers and Suns get eliminated. Highly unlikely but I would love to see Minny beat Denver.

We decided against that formula when trading Donny and Rudy during the same off season. We were in a great position to do the same thing and punted.

I am stunned than anyone thinks he is not someone we would pursue. If he doesnt make the cut for someone to go after than I would like to see the list of who is on the table. Time to shed some assets for talent.

Agreed they will likely not move Booker at this point. But if they were interested I would absolutely pull the trigger. If not, what on earth are we waiting for?

The issue is not about defense or offense at this point - we simply have very little NBA talent and if you become a good role player we trade you.

Danny should have factored this in before blowing up talent for picks ;)

For me, rebuilding after Karl and John was not frustrating at all. It was actually enjoyable to watch us put it back together. Not so this time.

It is why you either tank for real at the beginning of the season or hang on to players that are not to pricey but complimentary role players on a good team. We waffled on tanking two years in a row and then traded Tech and KO who are both solid role players who dont cost too much.

Agreed with Lauri, not Sexton. I would absolutely package him to get something we really want.

Ainge is a pure opprtunist and everything he has done has been consistent with that logic. I do think he blows smoke but the big game hunting thing was one of things that I think is legit and fits with his opportunistic approach.

So well said infection. Ainge got lucky in multiple ways in Boston. Hope it works again but I would rather have a legit plan.

Way overdue attitude. Go time.

Locke has plenty of cred for anyone who listens to his content and analysis. My guess is that he is now uber rich since lockedon podcast has gone crazy. Dont think he would make any attempt to talk over these two guys. No reason.

That is the key question. I think he and Lauri would be great together and I would definitely pursue it if I were the Jazz. My guess is that the Pups will be looking for more than he is worth.

Thanks JA. I forgot you even did these ;) . Rocket fans are my least favorite in the NBA. Couldn't have happened to a better team.

I am hoping Smith takes his passion for ugly uniforms and uses it on the hockey team and lets the Jazz go back to looking like an NBA team. Hopefully his success with building a winning franchise will be as great in the NHL as it has been in the NBA :D
