Quick FYI: Poku has same agent as Bogdanovic (both Bojan & Bogdan), as well as quite a few other international players.

I kind of think that the only egos involved here are among those who decided early in the season that acquiring Conley was a mistake.

Since when has the transitive property been very reliable for understanding sports?

Never heard of him before, so just pulled up a clip. Took me two minutes to realize he's a righthander with the way that he favors his left (and looks a lot like a lefty) when dribbling. Do you know if he has finishing/passing ambidexterity as well?

Once upon a time there were two college point guards finishing their careers the same season by leading two fairly good college teams. Player A’s team reached slightly greater heights that year, but both had played with other players that would go on to play in the NBA. By statistical markers...

Kind of think this would be the right move.

And maybe we'll be great next year when they're back and Morgan/Brantley/Oni are a year more experienced. Sucks that we've had bad luck this year though.

Sounded initially to me more like you were trying to imagine a way to get out of Conley's contract penalty free (which to be fair to you, it seems like you're not alone in wanting to do). I wouldn't say its out of the realm of possibility for the Jazz to do something with Conley's contract...

No way this is happening. Players' Association would have to be criminally negligent to allow this to happen.

Oh my, how did I not know this?: NWG is a native of Happy Valley, Oregon. If he sees the court with Ingles, that's got to be the first time for two Happy Valley natives simultaneously playing in NBA playoff history.

Unpopular stat alert: Among our SL Stars 6, the two players with the highest +/-, net-rating stats (both in NBA and G-League time) are (by far): Juwan Morgan Nigel Williams-Goss They probably are the two best prepared to fit into a (worst-player on the floor) role without making many...

Never a good thing when one of your best players goes out (and Conley has definitely been on of our best players in the Bubble), but I agree that stylistically the loss is less against Denver than against the Rockets or Thunder may have been.

Baby pix Glad to hear that it sounds like all are doing well.

Not totally sure how we get there from here, but let's just imagine that our roster for next season has: Guards: Conley, Mitchell, Clarkson, Kira Lewis (or Maledon, Tre Jones, Mannion, etc. -- insert whatever rookie you imagine we pick) Wings/PF: Ingles, Bogdanovic, O'Neal, Niang, Kurucs, Oni...

I think it would help. Probably wouldn't go quite that far. Quin wants shooting. I don't think he'd play much at 4, except perhaps against AD/Giannis. While Favors is better than Bradley, the margin will continue to grow smaller next year and the next.
