    I'm glad you get it... I feel like I'm taking crazy pills at times explaining to people why this last FA period is not "the new NBA FA". The list of free agents is also really gross... letting a good young player get to RFA is the opposite of what a rebuilding team should do. Maybe his...

    I am having PTSD about DL saying we "gotta keep the powder dry" only to live at the salary floor but the funds are "reinvested in the program". Only way this really plays out in a smart way for the Jazz is if Walker gets a serious injury and that's a terrible outcome for everyone really. And...

    We fumbled the bag with Walker. Now instead of a nice team friendly deal we get the 3+1 at 5-10M more per year than we would have otherwise lol. Or we get to trade him for a good deal less than we likely could have over the last year. Indecisiveness does not equal flexibility.

    Questions to Be Answered This Season

    The defense question has been rattling around. Its not like he can just flip a switch and train these guys to defend when he decides to care about it. Like how bad are the schemes if we are this tragic. Our personnel suck for sure... but there are a couple guys that can help. The habits need to...

    I think I would change 4-7 based on preseason hype. 4- Kings 5- Blazers 6- Pels 7- Horncats Vibes are real bad in Sacramento. Their schedule sucks. They look completely disconnected from each other on the court. Kings are going to be the first BOGO game of the season.

    Questions to Be Answered This Season

    These are really good. In general I think we need to make decisions on at least a couple guys if we are going to continue to invest in PT, roster, etc. Another big question is just where we land in the lotto? That may determine many answers moving forward. Another one - Is there any kind of...

    Coward is really struggling. Its early and he's been out a while.

    No Monk last night either. I also think Christie may suck as a coach.

    He's long for a guard so can play either spot. He is not a pg really... but he could initiate as one allowing Key or Brice to handle some actions. Ellis is an easy fit and would work well with any of our smallish guards. If we acquired a dynamic two guard we could get jumbo maybe. I watched them...

    Nique will be off the table. He's the only guy the new FO drafted. He also might be able to pretend to be a SF. I'd say Carter is most available... maybe? But maybe Ellis is the guy since hes on an expiring deal.

    Ringer Top 100, Lauri moved up, Kessler snub?

    I mean I'd take him over Robinson and Duren and they landed in the 80s.

    I'd settle for Ellis and one frp.

    Like seriously... Lavine, Schroeder, Monk, Westbrook, Ellis, Carter. Nique likely plays at SF with Derozan... I just have no idea what they are doing.

    The Kings did the most Kingsy thing ever. Adding Westbrook to this roster is a wild choice. Free Devin Carter or Keon Ellis!
