This is my third blow up as a Jazz fan

There is not a snow ball's chance in he11 this franchise wins 35 games in the 2013-2014 season given the current ownership/management/coaches/roster.
 
Our PG's are Tinsley and Lucas, two NBA scrubs and a rookie that hasn't hit a shot yet.

Our big men are....Favors (who is constantly in could trouble), Kanter (who can't score within 2 ft of the rim) and Gobert (who is thin as the wind). The rest are hurt.

Our most polished offensive player is Hayward, who most agree would be the 4th option on a title team...maybe third.

We aren't going to be very good.
 
What happens when we start 1-10 and jefferson decides his future isn't in Utah and tries to score 15 a night?

Plus, Corbin.

As a fan for almost 20 years now, this is the third blow up I've witnessed. In both previous cases, the Jazz responded by posting a winning record. In 2004, the Jazz won 42 games after John retired and Karl left, and a year ago, the Jazz won 45(transposed) in the first full seasons after Williams was booted out.

I don't think there's anyone on this forum who could convince me that either of those two years, the Jazz had a more talented roster than right now. Not only are we not getting Wiggins, it would be a big shock if the Jazz won fewer than 35 games. I think the chances of the Jazz playing games in May 2014 are so much higher than the chances of the Jazz getting Wiggins a month later. I have no idea why anyone thinks the Jazz will even be in the lottery next year, let alone picking top 3.

I have not read a single response to this thread. The answer is simple:

CORBIN!!!!!!

If you've been a fan for so long then you should be able to see for yourself that Corbin can't even sniff Sloan's jockstrap.

He is white. That is all he does. I think it is like our 5th chromo or something.

Les Nessman, take a chill pill.
 
He was irrationally optimistic. That's ok. Just remember where "fan" is derived from (fanatical).

I do agree with bigmike that the Jazz underachieved. But I'm glad. Jazz could have won 30+ and ended up with McBuckets instead of Exum.

Looking at our roster - pending free agency - I don't see Utah making the playoffs in 14/15, either - even IF we retain Hayward. The WC is tough. Maybe Utah has a Phoenix-like season and falls just short. That's ok with me. To improve from 25 to 40 wins would be significant. Then we have a lottery pick and look for the 50-win mark the season after.

Everything still depends on Kanter/Favors. If they can each make a leap, we can make the playoffs.
