    2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

    Someone said to me the other day that a good comparison coming out of college is Jimmy Butler. Has that dog in him to not get beat by anyone, make his team better and an extremely strong work ethic. You can’t teach that. Jimmy wasn’t the best shooter coming out of college and some would say...

    The mystery man Tony Jones was talking about

    Jalen Green is my guess. There were some whispers that we asked about his availability earlier in the year.

    Jazz Roster (Updated for Collins Trade)

    Not sure if GS does this, but if I was the Jazz I would offer KO and a future first for Kuminga. I think KO fits great for them and Kuminga is a high risk high reward gamble that could have a Lauri type breakout. I am higher on him than wasting cap space on Kuzma.

    2023 NBA Draft Megathread

    What if all these bad reports on Whitnore came from Ainge and his people, so he would drop. Bad workouts, injury issues, college coach doesn’t like him etc. Maybe the grand plan is to trade up for Black, and then trade up via Dallas for Whitmore.

    2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

    Looks like the Warriors are going to shaking up their roster with everyone other than Curry available. Kuminga would be a nice piece next to Lauri and Kessler. Moody would also be a nice get.

    Official Utah/Minnesota/Philadelphia Pick Watch

    Good night for the Jazz so far with teams under Utah and Minny winning (OKC, Tor, Heat) and both Philly and Brooklyn losing. Now just need Portland and Lakers to win to cap it off!

    We keep an all star. Might be a bigger bidding war at deadline or next offseason

    Jazz and Knicks discussing Donovan Mitchell trade per Shams Charania and Tony Jones

    Ainge and Jazz have all the leverage. Don is under contract. We keep him for a year until next offseason or the deadline then Knicks run risk that there will be more suitors. They can’t afford to miss out on Don

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    I think Timberwolves are wanting to push all their chips in for a chance at a title. It was mentioned on NBA today that another west conf team that doesn’t have any draft picks asked about Kyrie. D’Angelo for Kyrie as the base of the deal works.

    Spida Questioning Jazz front office moves?

    Until we see the finished product of next years roster, our current franchise player has every right to ask those questions. Good on him! Don’t fall for the media trying to dramatise every move Donovan makes. Their dream is for him to get traded. Gives them something to talk about.

    What’s with the hate for Donovan Mitchell?

    We are a small market team that cries out for star players. We finally had two all stars, and there are members of the fan base that all they want to do is hate on them. You know who you are and it’s disgusting and am ashamed to be a Jazz supporter. We don’t deserve any stars. Jazz fans whinge...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Jazz should stay away from Collins. He can’t guard wings and he can’t guard bigger body PF’s and Centers. He is a defensive liability and is effectively a 6’8 tweener center. Ask Hawks fans what they think of him and how frustrating he is to have on your team. I would actually prefer Simmons...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    They actually have the best potential package, but I doubt KD wants to go back there. Not the best for his legacy.

    Jazz are Setting Up a Tank

    I think Don wants to leave, but I don’t think he wants to ask for a trade with 4 years left on his contract, it would be a PR hit yo his brand. I also think the Jazz know this. The question is if we do trade him why does it have to be to the heat or Knicks. Surely there are plenty of other...
