Last year's team may still be together if they drafted him.

Glad they didn't then. Though losing Rudy hurts, this team is the most fun I've had watching the Jazz in ages

Pretty solid win against a good team who was in for shooting. Tough to beat Memphis shooting 56% and raining down threes.

I would use all the draft picks this year and would trade the remaining picks to pick up another star player. This team has enough good to it already.

A pretty solid win. But an odd back to back home games against the same team. First time me seeing something like that.

They started doing it during covid and realized it helped to cut down travel.

We out Grizzed the Grizz. Memphis won a ton of games without Ja last year just by out working the other team.

NAW was impressive. He had at least 3 plays where he just took the ball from the other player leading to some fast break buckets.

 

[George W]

Happy for NAW -- I've always wanted him on the team, he's always had tools to succeed that others don't. He has the right attitude, and generally tries to play unselfish.

I liked the trade, I like his game, and I hope there's more to come.

The problem there is that you then gut the team of the good players that got us here just to match the salary of these superstars; I mean plus we empty the cupboard of picks for the future. Better to target a rising star that is expendable to the trading team (SGA for example) clear out the oldest players, I.,e., Conley, Gay and give up a mere pick or two. Take your best shot and still reap the benefits of the draft every year, developing replacement talent as you continue to win the way Golden State does it.

Maybe we need to start a campaign to re-unite SGA and NAW. And with Olynyk here, we'd then have 3 guys from the Canadian Olympic team. Any other Canadians potentially on the block (will pass on Primo, though)?

No there’s a lot of truth to that, I mean building culture through shared values. I guess Wiggins has developed to the point where he’s now completely out of our reach, unfortunately.

I love how Olynyk is shutting all the haters up. In less than 10 games this guys already done more clutch **** than Bogey did since he hit that game winner vs Houston 3 seasons ago.

I know right? I mean as crazy as it sounds, we won that trade! And we saved money. As good as Bogey is (and he’s great), he lost the ball a lot, particularly on drives. He’d also go all hangdog sometimes, something Olynyk never does. Also, I think he just generally surveys the floor and facilitates better.

Okay now what happened here? You know I rely on you guys for highlights. Anyway, after missing perhaps the most exciting game of the season I’ve broken down and getting hehe streams. I’ll just have to come up with another excuse to leave the house and get out alone to the casino.
