Kanter traded to OKC

[Safetydan]

Yes, but not penis ****er ok?

Ok

Eh, the final year with Jefferson and Millsap was where the Jazz' strategy was long visible long before Lindsay was hired. Everything the Jazz had done since they acquired Jefferson and the subsequent Williams trade was to try and compete with that group until their contracts were up and then have oodles of cap space and a bevy of young talent and make decisions then. The year prior the Jazz had made the playoffs and were still in line for the playoffs at the trading deadline. The Jazz never had any intention of fire selling when their plan to see what happened that next off season was half a season away and they could still make the playoffs.

Assigning Lindsay to Millsap's and Jefferson's free agency is erroneous.

The Lindsay era truly started with the GSW trade.

He became GM in August of 2012. Why/how were his hands tied for the first 11 months of his tenure? any links to support this claim?

My memory tells me you were not a fan of that trade, either.

I was ok with it.

Dennis Lindsey > KOC


It's not even close either.

You can't be serious with this right? Jazz haven't sniffed the playoffs as a result of DL's direction. KOC built the 2nd greatest jazz squad that we'll ever see, and had us as consistent contenders for 3 years in a row. Let me know when DL builds a jazz team that makes it to the WCF. I hope DL rights the ship. But at this point it's OKAY to criticize some of his actions. How do you think he has done a better job than KOC?

...no one answered my question! Is Kanter a stiff or not???

You can't be serious...DL has been on the job, full control for 2 years. Are you blind to the progress that has been made? We are on the verge of breaking out and it had nothing to do with that Neanderthal looking MF Kanter

Even though it was unprofessional of Enes to publicly say he wanted to be traded, at least he didn't tweet about crying tears of joy after being traded like Reggie Jackson did.

Yeah that was a jerk move. What a putz.

Yup that's great, yet we have the same record as we did a year ago. All I'm saying is that for the "DL > KOC, and it isn't really close" argument to be valid, DL needs to get the Jazz to the WCF, which isn't gonna happen with this core group of players going forward

Quit being a tool.

This is the equivalent of blaming Obama for the economy his first year in.


Dennis Lindsey was hired as a co-GM. With the idea of him eventually taking over.

Dennis wasn't going to come in and start making major moves from day 1

You clearly have no vision for the future.

This team is going to be much better than the DWill and Boozer team.

Besides, half of this team is KOC's. Including that bust Enes Kanter.

Just being realistic man. I want the jazz to reach the promised land just as much as anyone else on this board.
