The All-Time Utah Jazz Tease Team

What’s that guys name that was drafted by the jazz the same year Humphries was? Played for Nevada. I remember him saying he would be ROTY that year. Later on he was arrested and sent to prison, for what, I forget. Is he still there?

Kirk Snyder. Apparently he served two years and then was signed by a Canadian basketball team, the Halifax Rainmen.

He was waived after three games.

Id add Rodney Hood that list. He had some great moments in big games carrying the jazz offense at times. But just couldnt consistently deliver.

Rodney looked like an all star some nights and other nights he looked like he belonged in the G league. I don't think I've ever had a Jazz player frustrate me the way he did, just so wildly inconsistent.
 
I thought Lopez would be good (after I got over hating the pick).

I thought Hoffa could have played solid minutes.

I thought Collins was going to be better than he was.

I thought AK was going to continue his trajectory.

I thought Pavlovic was going to be a 20+ ppg guy.

I thought Phil Johnson was going to be the next coach.

I thought Kosta and Fes could be our twin bigs.

Trey Burke was the guy I wanted most that draft.

So was Enes Kanter.

But then so we’re Paul George and Kawhi Leonard.

Every thing about Dante is a tease... he was supposed to be this offensive dynamo... he’s had a couple okayish stints but then immediately gets hurt... he’s the worst kind of tease the looooooong tease... had he just been healthy enough to flame out we could have moved on.
 
Raul Lopez for sure I thought he would have become a terrific player
Ostertag at his best he could do some terrific things. Lazy fat ****

That last part is true. Also one of the dumbest possible ways of looking at the whole thing. He has actually benefitted from his injuries. It’s almost impressive.
 
Koufos looked very, very good for a good stretch of his rookie season, and then he was inexplicably benched for ****ing Jarron Collins and he was never the same again.

The shooting that was hyped up coming into the league never materialized, but I was mesmerized by that supposed potential after seeing him log five blocks in like his 10th game ever. Such a theoretical player was exactly what that team needed.

I agree... the injuries have given him (and the front office) an excuse... he's always working his way back or hasn't had the reps. His first injury was ill timed with where the team was headed and was at a critical stage in his career. I think I've seen enough in stints to say he isn't anything more than a unique (in good and bad ways) backup guard.

If he's healthy this year I think he will provide us with an adequate backup pg/wing... not worth 10M a year but that is kind of his ceiling to me. #hope
