Central tank command : the official thread

Hill for Rubio the salaries are close enough to work.

I would do it if we are trying to win now and have other moves... like a Mirotic deal up our sleeves.
 
Rubio is good for a stealth tank and that's about it. But what else are you losing by strangling everyone else offensively?

I'm fine losing a ton of games and I'm fine squeezing into the playoffs. But if the Jazz are pinning any hope on free agency, winning is what's up.

Where was Sam Bowie drafted?

Sam Bowie had game though. He was drafted high and ahead of Jordan because of it. It's hard to be a GM soothsayer and forecast injury riddled players sometimes.
I think the point is, it's a better chance to draft a franchise impacting player if they are drafted higher, and they fit the team's mold and they don't have injuries. This year's lottery picks are may be better than last years by a lot. Who knows though? No one really.
 
A lot was made of the December schedule. Low key the struggles are very likely to continue in January and February because of skewed home-away schedule. 11 of the next 17 are on the road. We are horrible on the road no matter the opponent.

Difference between losing by 30 and losing by 10. A loss is still a loss. Jazz have been horrible on the road against ALL teams. January schedule is easier in terms of caliber of opponents, but 8 of 13 games are on the road. So don't worry, Jazz should still have a losing record in January.

I called it back in December!

Obviously, the better the pick, the more chance Utah has of finding a good player. Utah has been "off" by 1 a couple of times (Burks at 12 after Klay went 11; Lyles after Turner was drafted one spot ahead). This draft will have very good talent in the lottery. Will Utah get another Mitchell? Unlikely. But Jazz could draft a very good starter.

Miami was a great loss. The team competed; Mitchell had a very good game that shpould help his ROY campaign, but the team still lost to contribute to the lottery chances.

Tank SZN!

Phoenix and LAL win we lose... only a couple of games out of the 6-7 range.

Just keep losing... we will get the missing piece and fill in around our core.
 
Tough night for the Tank last night.

The Nets lost by one in overtime (jazz are 1 game behind the nets)
The bulls lost (jazz are never catching them)
The kings lost by 1 point at home despite leading by 7 going in to the 4th.

Perhaps the lone bright spot was the clippers 1 point victory over the hawks. The Jazz are not catching the hawks, so it was nice to get some separation between the Jazz and clippers. The clippers are now 7-3 in their last 10 and a full 2.5 games ahead of the jazz.

I am fine with going for the tank. I just wish I had confidence in the Jazz FO to embrace a tank.
