Jazz Exit Interviews

I mean, maybe **** hits the fan in Oaktown and Klay says, **** this, I like this Spida cat. I'd play with him. I've been underappreciated here. I can make a bigger mark in Utah. Bring a title to a place that's never had one. Create my own legacy.

Yeah, that could happen. It could.

It could, but I think people would get pissed when we see him as a rich man's Wally Szczerbiak.
 
How far back did the George Hill & Rubio situations set us back really? Probably enormously. Terrible moves.

I bet he wishes he could take that decision back. I've consistently said that we walk out of the gas station with a lottery ticket and refuse to sell it to someone offering us $100 for it. It only took us a week or two after the deadline to scratch that ticket and wish we had a do-over.

Listen, I'm in the **** Rxum crowd, but I can see his decision making. Rxum was turning a corner. And now, he turned that corner so hard, he's hurt again.

So yeah, hopefully the positive talk on Rxum is only that. Talk. I don't give a **** how hard the kids works. They all should work hard. If he can't stay healthy and he can't play basketball, what the ****s the point? Trade him.

(better yet, don't bother committing $10 million a year over three years to a guy that never proved a damn thing in the first place)

Talk all the **** you want about Gordon Hayward; the fact is he was arguably the most efficient star player in the league the year he left, and his struggles in Boston have largely been about a freak injury. Let's not forget that Lindsey failed to either read the situation and get something for him or get him to come back.

He gets one more season to figure this out.

I've been saying this for a while... Quin is the engine that is driving the recent Jazz success, not Lindsay. Quin's blender offense gets open shots, but Lindsay has failed to get the correct personnel. It'd be like a Peyton Manning offense being 80% run / 20% pass. The lack of 3 point shooting is on Lindsay, not Quin.

Lindsay got lucky with Gobert and Donovan. The Gobert situation was a 1/1000 occurrence. Donovan had a great showing at his workout with the Jazz (more so than his other workouts). Him trading to get Donovan was a good move, but what else has he done? Trade away Taurean Prince (who is exactly what the Jazz need) for a one year rental in George Hill? Drafted Trey Burke? Jazz still don't have the PG situation figured out... He failed to both A) trade Hayward for anything and B) convince him to stay. Korver and Crowder like trades don't move the needle.

I agree with many of the other posters. 3 strikes and you're out. This off-season is his last shot.
