Do you think that if Donovan ,Rudy And Joe play like this next year will be enough with Jrue or Conley? The player in other team is always much better than yours until he plays in your team. Maybe Kemba can drop 40 p in playoffs but i'noy sure with Jrue and Conley

Are you freaking kidding ?? Jrue would take us up into that top tier. Playmaker/ shooter lockdown defender. Replace Rubio with Jrue and we’re significantly diffferent
Much improved with Kemba or Conley as well but Jrue is a beast and would plug so many holes here

23.7% from the 3 point line tonight. 23.7%!!! Don't tell me they weren't good shots. Plenty were open looks. It's as if the more open the were the more it got in our head that we couldn't make them. 9/38 shots. 4 air balls. Missed layups a plenty. This is how we started the season so I guess it's fitting that this is how we ended the season. If we shot so much as 28% (which is not great) by hitting 3 more wide open 3s, we win the game.
Here is to getting back Igor, retooling the offense, 1 year older and better, a stronger start, an amazing asset find in the offseason, and above all... learning to shoot the rock!!!

We do not want Conley or jrue (would love both) because we would have to give favors, jae, korver, royce, etc to match the salaries. We need Kemba for free (you know what I mean) and repeat the team. Royce is going to get at least 10 mill a year from some team the year after. The big splash has to be this next season or we will really be hurting again.

Kemba/who cares
Donovan/royce
Joe/korver/niang
Favors/jae
Gobert
KD is going to the Knicks. Next year is our chance if we get kemba
I'not kidding. Jrue is very good of course,but the Jrue you imagine as a god , needs a Davis and a Mirotic or a Randle( playoff last year) playing good. If Rudy , donovan and...who? don't play well the problem is the same

I really hope Kyrie goes to the Knicks too otherwise I'm scared of the Knicks targeting their home town boy Kemba to put beside KD. I think we got a shot if it came down to Lakers vs Utah after their dysfunctional season but if the Knicks are in the hunt because they missed out on Kyrie I think we're boned.
That last minute sucked, but at least I'm glad I've watched the last of Jazzfanz pissing on Ricky Rubio, who's been far and away the best and most consistent Jazz player this series, just like he was great last year against OKC.
15.4 points, 8.6 assists, 2.4 steals, extremely low TO%, by far the best +/- out of the starting 5 this series (Crowder instead of Favors) and a leader on the floor who wouldn't go down without a fight even in G2. The team felt it almost every time he went to the bench. And yet reading this board and watching so-called Jazz fans nitpick on each and every miss, you'd think he was crap, when he's been the guy with the biggest heart, most hustle and the one who's found the holes in the Rockets defense time and again to keep the Jazz in the games. Only Royce O'Neale (kudos to him, he's been great overall) and Favors to a lesser extent have been equally succesful and positive for this team, while the incredibly overrated Joe Ingles had another disappearing act, Donovan Mitchell (whom I love, but won't pretend he's a star *yet*) showed once again he's not ready to lead a team and less of all as a PG / main playmaker (you gotta be either blind or extremely dumb to still think otherwise) and Rudy kept giving away possesions with his weak hands and lack of coordination (I won't go into his utter lack of offensive game because he makes up for it on D, but his fumbling the ball is just too costly).
Direct your frustrations elsewhere, because Ricky Rubio has been great once again in the playoffs and he's proven he's a winner who unlike others never gives up. And rejoice, because most probably starting next fall you're either going to see Donovan Mitchell, The Walking Ded or a mediocre starting PG in the East like Tomas Satoransky "lead" this team. We'll see how the Jazz turn into a real contender when your wishes come true.

Lockdown defender? So wait they have him and Davis who is considered a great defender and a couple other guys like Moore and Payton who can supposedly defend and they still give up a 190 a game? Doubt he's lockdown.

If we renounced Ricky (I think we have to), and strike out on studs (likely), I wonder how much Darren Collison would cost on a 2-3 year deal. 57.0%+ TS% four years in a row. 40%+ from 3 four years in a row. A better than 7:2 A:TO ratio last year. Career 85% from the line. He could be a good stopgap and might be relatively cheap.

Dude I don’t consider Davis a great defender. He gets some fancy blocks.
Never heard anyone laid Moore or Payton.
Jrue is a legit high level defender
