My frustration with this franchise is reaching a peak

Been a Jazz fan for decades but this year is really upsetting. I started thinking about this earlier and I can't find an answer. Are the Jazz the only team in the league unwilling to tank? I am trying to think of another franchise that hasn't and none are coming to mind. Any ideas?

A championship has never seemed further away.

Duuuuude quit it. Your version of tanking would have Trey Burke "injured" Hayward** style while Biendrins plays and Kanter and Favors sit on the bench. Our young guys are playing great. Yeah, so are Marv and Jefferson. Hopefully we trade them. Jazz are already trying their best to tank by having Ty Co as their coach*

*Actually, it almost pains me to admit it but Corbin isn't doing too bad right now. It just sucks because this is probably a fool's gold situation.. teams not taking our games too seriously. I would prefer if he had 1 year left on his contract as of next year. Going to be very interesting next summer.

**Has anyone else been watching these games and actually forgotten Gordon Greenbacks was on our team at all? God, I do not miss the days of Hayward T-mac ball that we tanked with to start the season. Not really on him. But, yeah, haven't missed him. I think the plan is to hold him out until we have a game where we do miss him.
 
kinda like when jefferson was out.
so crobain was forced to move away playing alfense. which led in some of the most emmorable games in the crobain era
 
For the most part our recent success has been young guys playing well, it's hard to do much about that. We should probably get rid of Marv and Richard Jefferson, but it's also silly to think that these guys both suck and will somehow create a huge dent in this team that will cause us to lose lots of games.

That's the logic around these parts though. Somehow, at once, Marvin and Richard are both insignificant players who are in no way contributing positively to the growth of our young core, as well are players who are so good, they're the reason why we've been playing .500 ball since that 1-13 start. Boggles the mind, doesn't it.

Actually i thought burks, hayward, kanter and favors were good last year and the year before that and even back into college before they ever even met richard jefferson.

Our young guys are good because they have lots of talent, have been practicing all thier lives and have good attitudes.

It boggles my mind that people think jefferson and marvin are somehow responsible for our young guys being good.... were marvin and jefferson helping trey burke last year while he was at michigan?

Good to know all our players stopped developing this July. ****, you're so stupid, I wonder if it hurts when you think. Are you actually claiming that there's no effect on development to playing with players? That if Jefferson wasn't spotting up behind the arc and hitting shots, and Favors was instead just throwing his passes into the crowd at the spot where Jefferson would stand, that he would develop just as well?

Im saying thay burks and kanter are players..... do you disagree?
So hayward burke kanter burks favors can all be on the court at the same time and develop.
Marvin and jefferson can give advice coming off the bench. Or whatever other players the jazz aquire... like i said, last year jefferson was nowhere around our young guys and they developed just fine.
There is no special powers that jefferson and marvin have (like you seem to think) that make young guys good basketball players.... they have been good basketball players all thier lives without jeffy or marv helping them and they will continue to he good basketball players after those two leave.
