    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Players can only win with what they are given and what they are running. If the roster is poorly constructed and/or the plan is bad, their level of responsibility for failing to execute said plan is not as much. Like I've said many times - MJ, many consider the greatest, was a perennial loser...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Overblown - "foot out the door" garbage. Right now is the perfect opportunity to force his foot out he door, and he hasn't. But here comes the "doesn't want to blame his image" argument. Playing for a team trying to lose like Ainge is aiming at would hurt his image. Overblown - his lack of...

    Extra Insight: Donovan's Power Move Destroyed the Lockeroom

    It's a correlation. Only a coward would blame our issues last season on one player. It's as cowardly as blaming the Lakers' season on Russell Westbrook. Or even as cowardly as blaming the Nets' season all on Kyrie.

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Oh really? Ask Frank Vogel. Players take flack, but they don't take the ultimate blame. Coaches first then front office.

    I would assume you are smart enough to understand the statement, but you know what people say about assuming.

    Extra Insight: Donovan's Power Move Destroyed the Lockeroom

    Don had a poor end to the season. We all know that. His clutch numbers were terrible. I think losing Joe the player was much more important than losing Joe the "only Don no teller" garbage being spun right now. Quin only trusted 3 players down the stretch with the ball in their hands - Don...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    No, I'm saying that the environment sucked, everybody is at least a little to blame, and player performances can be attributed to the lack of joy. I've already piled on Don for his occasional lack of effort. Rudy for occasionally being a diva. Conley for being a disappointment when it mattered...

    Extra Insight: Donovan's Power Move Destroyed the Lockeroom

    Tony Jones isn't any kind of trusted source on tangible information. He's good at hinting at feelings, but I don't trust him to be unbiased. He's like a fan with a voice instead of a true news source. His comment about "Joe is the only one who could tell Don no" could have 100 different...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Our failures came because we never finished building a roster which is necessary to compete in the modern day playoffs. That's on DL despite the fact that he did make some very good moves starting the building process. Quin is a very good coach who never had adjustments ready for modern day...

    Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

    Don just hasn't been happy. Unhappy players are often uninspired players. There are plenty of great talents who ebb and flow depending on the circumstances they are in. Our circumstances the last couple years plus have been pretty bad. The whole covid thing. A piss poor front office that never...
