Its Time to Tank

**** THE TANK

 

[Jingled]

I'm so very conflicted. My head says tank, but then I watch the games and my heart says win. Before the season I never imagined this team would be so fun and easy to root for.

This should oficially replace "take note"

Sorry but I hate it..

Another win against a team missing their alpha. This time it was CP3.

Alpha?CP3? Maybe 10 yearsago.

Alpha?CP3? Maybe 10 yearsago.

Absolutly, he was a top player. He remain a good player but not alpha anymore.

I think missing Cam Johnson was a bigger deal than missing CP3 for this game. They had to overwork Booker who was pretty gassed in 4th. Can can take some scoring pressure off of him in relief.

But remember we had two key players Kessler and Olynyk playing by far their worst games of the year. They were both just off, and it wasnt anything the Suns were doing.

My 11 yo daughter is so sweet… she comes and watches games with me just to hang out and discovers that we are both preteen girls who don’t know what we want. She’s the best.

People always have to cherry pick teams like ORL and SAC to say we shouldn't tank.

Meanwhile the Spurs tanked exactly one season and ended up with Duncan, so it works both ways.

Jazz don't have a #1 alpha and probably should be in the lottery. If they don't get lucky with Victor they will still end up with a very good player because this draft is stacked. They would still have enough draft capital to make a trade for a star as soon as this offseason. There's exactly no reason for the tank to last multiple seasons. We need some young studs that fit around Kessler.

People keep using the unicorn example from 25 years ago on why teams should tank. Defeats the argument.

Yeah the list of guys we thought were unicorns and who flopped bad is so so so much longer than the list of guys who actually succeeded.

Yet this year we will draft that guy.

Oh and all this despite we have a budding star whose true potential is unknown but who looks like a unicorn on paper and at times in games.
