    Cody Williams Hype and Appreciation Thread

    as long as he steadily improves and doesn't demand a huge contract, i'm fine being patient with him. what i can't stand is overpaying for a one dimensional undersized offensive player who is a defensive liability which is the exact opposite of what he is.

    huh. the start of the tank or the start of the future?

    No Extension for Walker Kessler?

    i loved AK 47. his deal ruined the team at the time. bad contract equals bad player no matter the skill level. if he wants too much, 'see ya'.

    Pacers interest in Kessler- what do we want?

    who do we want? kessler of course. i mean, if someone wants my motorbike, that's because it's a great bike.

    Too good to tank?

    Screw the tank. Having said that, losing walker will hurt the win total a lot. Silver lining is hopefully the rest will learn better defence in the vacuum his loss will create. However they will only learn this if they actively try to win.

    Can the Jazz afford Keyonte, Kessler and Lauri?

    That was the point of it wasn't it? To find talent? Of course you will have to pay them. Why trade for a guy if you already have one who knows the system. The new cba has all the teams strapped for cash, hopefully they won't have to overpay.

    A guy named 'me' who naively believes everything he hears says that there is no tank because Austin said so before the season. If the pick goes past nine, it wouldn't have landed a difference maker anyway so who cares if we lose it? (yes I know, we can get stars past nine but the likelyness...

    Isiah Collier Hype and Appreciation Thread

    so let's say we have 40 mil to spend on three guards: Key, Collier, Clayton. what's the ratio? how much are each getting. i know, the number isn't likely accurate, i'm more interested in the percentage distribution. (and yeah, it's also too early to tell as well)

    Ace Bailey Hype thread

    he's more raw than i had hoped, but i like his attitude and the highlights are promising. definitely going to be one of those players that has a big boost year 3

    Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk

    personally, i have been ignoring height and just focus on the wingspan. basically, svi is 6'5 to me. not really tall, but tall enough to play his position. and flip is 6'10 which is why he really needs to be a PF, not a C, at least if he starts anyway. you don't defend with your head, you do...

    Too good to tank?

    We have been fishing for good players and found some. We have at least a big two with ace and Lauri, and with the new CBA punishing going over the tax we might not need a third. As long as a few more are starter quality players we should be fine. On top of that, we still have a bunch of picks...

    Are you rooting for the playoffs this season?

    you mean like we got Flagg? The NBA has a whole draft lottery ruleset to make tanking for number one 50/50 at best. we've walked that path and fortunately came out of it with potentially a great player but not the number one. We have good talent evaluators, let's outsmart the nba by having...

    Are you rooting for the playoffs this season?

    Think about it. If the Jazz are first five picks, it means that our young players are crap and that Ace played like an inexperienced rookie. That's bad news for the team. If our youth are talented like we think they are, the pick falls down to 7-10 right? while that is a solid pick and we...
