Spence Checketts did a Frank Layden tribute yesterday on his show. I didnt catch all of it but I caught several of the interviews with Scott Layden, Richard Smith, Phil Johnson and Dave Checketts. Great great show that highlighted the amazing impact Frank had on the Jazz and the community. If...

Hendricks, Flip, and Clayton

And the next time he has average offensive efficiency it will be the first time.

JC was incredibly fun, and sometimes frustrating, when we were relevant. Fond memories of him as a Jazzman but also glad he is moving on - and I wish him well. Seems he had a miserable year because of our need to win every trade.

I have been advocating that trying to win every trade makes no sense given where we are at. That being said, I still disagree with this one. There are some guys I would absolutely dump but Sexton is a guy I would keep around unless you get something real in return.

Kobe killed at 7 points and 2 rebounds and 1 assist per game.

I would say, as a teenager, it is a successful season if he hits double figures. I am not convinced he starts from day 1 but that depends upon who else is around. And I think there will still be plenty of others competing for shots.

I like the pick and think he has a chance to stick.

I am on record saying Tre was who I wanted.

My guess is that Ace has plenty of ways to make money over the next 12 months if it comes down to that. At 18 what he makes the next few years is not the issue.

Drafting him based upon what his camp had said was a high risk high reward move. IF you believe he is the best talent, you take the risk and hope he shows up. What you also hope for is that it stays quiet enough that we dont have to fire sale him before he ever plays.

So far it has been abysmal unless you like the trade deadline and draft night more than winning games. Maybe it will work but too early to tell. As for the being the best draft ever, there is similar sentiment many years after the draft. Way too early to tell. I would say picking up guys in...

I like this pick more at 18 more than Ace at 5 and even more excited if it means moving on from Keyonte.

There is no speculation about where he wanted to go.

The talent has to be overwhelming for me to pick someone who was clear he did not want to be here. I would have taken Tre.
