Jackpotting Around 52 - Uproar Theory, Tankxiety, Keyonte, and Trade Talk

You also get the maximum bad PR. We’ve only really tanked hard one season, which is much less than the majority of “homegrown” teams, but we receive the PR as if we had been tanking hard this whole time.

Then you add on the human element to this as well. Does it really feel any better that we half tanked 3 years ago instead of full tank? Patience is running out from fans and seemingly in the FO as well.

I often say building from the middle is not as bad as people make it out to be…but what the Jazz have done is actually horrible. The way they’ve minimized the rewards and maximized the downsides is almost artful.

I will say what grinds my gears a bit on the tanking is strategy is why no one just does minutes limits for their stars.

Playing Lauri 28 mpg. The first 7 of the odd quarters, and the last 7 of the even. Then rest him in the grimey season. That seems like a smart strategy and that wouldn't draw as much ire.
