I care because I want my team to win a championship and I realize that the NBA landscape is changing so dramatically that the expectation of Utah just being good because they've been good for so many years is ridiculous nowadays. They're only good because they drafted a once-in-a-generation talent. I'm not sold on throwing that talent away and hoping you can fall into another Donovan Mitchell with the 13th draft pick. Because God knows we're not likely to entice any all star to this state. And why would we when our fans are willing to trash the best thing to happen to the Jazz since David Stern got on stage and told Utah they were finally getting a mail man?Why does anyone care if anyone cares about Utah? Are we Jazz fans because it's popular and cool?
Who has signed with Utah because of Donovan Mitchell? ****ing no one. Donovan has no made Utah cool. He never will. The most impressive players we have signed cite Mike Conley or Quin Snyder as the reason they came. Bogey didnt come to Utah cuz he thinks Don's cool.
I thank Mitchell for his service. He's done a lot. Now he is undoing a lot of that.
