2018 JazzFanz Awards - Post of the Year

[latin jazz]

If considered as one, I enjoyed the Triple TWolves fans quotes by @JazzAvenues. The likes got split by 3 so they would be hard to notice. They had so much salt and tears after losing what they called their biggest game in 14 years

@Jason please consider this for the Thread award instead of Post award

But it is not about head to head. Its about lifetime achievements.

Right, and championships, but TD had a better supporting cast.

response:



or this

Yeah, dude. The Jazz have turned it around more than any team I've ever seen. They started the year a completely different team. Props to them. Props to Synder. Props to Mitchell. Props to Gobert and Props to the guy I **** on the most- Rubio.

Are you so rigid in your thinking to still think Rudy is better than Donovan ... I love Rudy as much as anyone, but no way can he come close to doing the amazing things that Donovan does. People not on Jazzfanz are already calling him the next Michael Jordan. I'm not saying he will be that good. But no one expected him to be what he is now.

Gobert is a modern day Bill Russell, like right now. Not a future thing.

It's not close really that close. Gobert is much much better right now. Gobert's return and the Jazz winning are very much causative in nature.

Rudy is great but he is still pretty one-dimensional. He's still not in Russell's league. I'm old enough to have seen Russell play, albeit on TV, but a lot of shots that Rudy watches would've been blocked by Russell because he was so quick off his feet. But then you know, the game is a lot faster today, so maybe I'm wrong. I'm not saying Rudy isn't a great rim protector and defender, but Donovan is on pace to being a sure-fire superstar. Glad the Jazz have both to build to a championship.

 

[Jason]

stawp... take the debate on Bill Russell elsewhere... links to POSTS please

 

[Jason]

I'll create a Thread of the Year category. Agreed.

You also trashed rubio so your jazz takes are dumpster juice.

Now that is a very narrow-minded response and ignorant as well. I had good justification at that time for trashing him and I also made a thread saying that I was wrong and glad that he reversed his bad play.

 

[Ron Mexico]

@Jason is there a way to see which posts got the most likes that isnt the first post?

 

[Ron Mexico]

There are some pretty solid posts in this thread...

[Ron Mexico]

I just went and looked at some funny posts from @Beer but none of them made the cut. They were close though. I dont think I have ever laughed at anything harder then some of his stories. Especially in this thread. https://jazzfanz.com/threads/things-your-significant-other-does-that-drives-you-cray.36781/

But its all too old.

 

[MVP]

I think post about LogGrad98 diarrhea experience must be nominated. That was pure gold. But it may be older than a year...

Not to crap on all your efforts, but I almost feel like Best Gameday Thread should be a separate category.

Infection is in a class all to himself - (probably because he made all the other kids cry and stop coming to school.)

 

[colton]

Likes on an individual post... Leaning against it. Lets take nominations instead. Post a link to the POST you're nominating. Easiest way to do that is, on a full browser, right-click the little number in the upper right of the post and copy the link. For example, this post has a #5 on it - that's what you'd click to get the direct link.

Good luck.

I think you should use likes to help fill in the nominations.

edit: oops, you beat me to it.

 

[Jason]

Skipping this award this year. Need to come up with a better way to field nominations (perhaps a way to nominate all year long).
