What tpe?

Think he was referring to this: https://toiletpapermagazine.com/


I hear Toilet Paper Editorials fetch a pretty penny in NBA roster negotiations; he couldn't be referring to a traded player exception, seeing as the Jazz never had one that amounted for than 2 million dollars at that point in time

God no. You see how broken our offense is without Big Al?

I think I just threw up a little bit even thinking about Smith in a Jazz uniform.

We need a young good SF Josh Smith is not the answer, keep looking.

We need someone who can hit open shots at SF.

I don't think anyone ever called Smith the answer. We signed him to a 1 year deal. He is more like a stop gap.

I understand the need to make these threads I suppose (NO, I dont), but did you REALLY put their stats up for comparison?

I think you are talking about Howard but if you are talking about Smith giving up Kanter for a stop gap seems like a pretty bad idea.

And even worse after Kanter's solid game tonight. He's looking like a pretty solid #3 pick. Certainly not the all-world coach-killer we got in Deron, but given the slim pickings, not bad at all.

Why? Because the FO is smarter than that. Howdy Dowdy is smarter than that. Apparently you only love big turkey on thanksgiving!

I call this the Clipper syndrome. For many years they got great draft picks and within a few years traded every pick they got. Because they were not patient. If you do that then your draft picks are worthless. Is ( has there ever been, will there ever be) a player on our roster that some fan doesn't want traded. Stockton perhaps, but i'm sure i just missed reading those.

I like JSmoove on my fantasy team but no for THIS team...

... think about it, Millsap/Smith/Jefferson/Favors/Memo to start the season??? Granted that Millsap started the year off the bench but how would they fit all those minutes for 2 positions? At least with Favors/Kanter, they were projects to begin with & needed time to develop. Kanter proved he could earn legit minutes (4 man rotation), thus the Memo dump.
