    Donovan, other players considering not playing

    Yeah... Don wants to go play for the Knicks, the one franchise who refused to put out a BLM statement. . .

    Summer 2019 Roster Discussion

    Also.. getting out of the first round hasn't helped us in FA either of the past two years... and OKC who was eliminated in the first round didn't have issues with FAs.. I don't think the argument that winning rounds helps attract players has any water at this point until we're actually a...

    Summer 2019 Roster Discussion

    I don't think we're that conservative. We traded up for Donovan. That seems like a no brainer right now... but imagine if the pick had been a bust (like any of the next 5-6 people taken after him)? We make all sorts of trades. I also don't think us running it back this year was because we...

    Summer 2019 Roster Discussion

    Not near as sexy but the other player I see us going for is Brogdon. Much lower ceiling but more gettable. A brogdon mitchell backcourt would be good, but we would still need to add another gunner. Maybe we can talk ourselves into fat Jabari. Don’t love him but firmly believe we need another...

    I don't think this team's ceiling if you replace Rubio and Favors with just Kevin Love is any higher than it is right now. It might be worse

    Summer 2019 Roster Discussion

    I don't think Rubio will be back. He is not a long term fit with Donovan and I feel confident our FO is aware of this. The honeymoon "development" period is over and we need to do some serious team building. I think Favors might be back, just not on the massive contract. Favors would be a...

    D-Lo

    Do we not have an official 2019 FA thread? What are everyone's thoughts on maxing out D-Lo? Pros - young player, clearly improving, great compliment to Donovan, plays position of need, all-star pedigree (albeit in the East(, Cons: A lot of money for a still largely unproven player who has...

    2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

    Still don't understand how this has become a referendum on Exum. Why exactly do we think he was considered untouchable and/or sandbagged potential deals? Not being sarcastic -- can someone explain?

    Jazz sit 7th in standings and will have to fight to make the playoffs

    I hope we can get the match up with Denver.

    2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

    The real annoying thing was (i) drafting Tony Bradley and then (ii) him getting hurt this season. Couldn't even put up huge #s in the g-league and pump up his value - bad draft pick (pointless since we have Gobert, Favors and Udoh... who needs 4 true Cs in today's NBA?) and bad luck. I'm meh...

    2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

    Where was it reported that Exum was the hold up. By the same people reporting contradicting messages and leaks from various agents and teams? Don't think I've seen it from any Utah reporter (or any reporter recently, to be honest). I'm no Exum stan, but people complaining about his contract...

    2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

    What are you talking about? We can just pick up Favors' option and he's an expiring all over again...

    If Korver trade was made today instead of 2 mo. ago would ya'll be happy?
