I'm not down on Hayward. But my opinion is both Burks and Bledsoe will be better players than he is if they're not already. It's that simple.

Was very pleased to hear Lindsey dismiss the notion that we have a 'Core 4' last night on the telecast. May not mean much, but it was better than hearing the FO thinks those guys are untouchable.

Burks is going to be the better pro. Hayward is not an all star caliber player and never will be. He's a 3rd option on offense, a great glue guy, a bit like AK. But Burks has a few rare NBA skills that are just starting to show themselves. He's going to be a great driver in this league and a...

I'd do it at the last second. But I'm not talking about a straight swap. They want Sap. The talk is the Jazz might have to send back Burks along with Sap. I'd swap out Hayward for Burks in that scenario, but then try to steal the leverage back. But no matter what the final package looks...

I will keep a candle lit until this happens. I've never cared so much about a rumored deal as this.

There is no basketball reason why Marvin plays over Carroll. It's not even defensible. My personal guess is they don't want to completely obliterate Marvin as a possible trade asset. And taking him out of the rotation entirely, which is the right basketball move, would basically guarantee...

I just found out about this possible deal and I'm not going back through 36 pages of this thread. We have to close on this. Keep Burks out of the deal. Dangle Hayward, but try to extract maximum return for a Hayward/Sap package. But at the end of the day, we gotta close on Bledsoe.

Finally caught back up to the season last night. It's been so long since I checked ESPN I literally just found out 5 minutes ago about the possible Bledsoe trade. I almost wept. We have to close on this.

If we're not canning Ty, we have to trade for a PG. We can't roll into next season with Favors/Kanter without one. And it has to be more than just overrated dogmeat like Mo. I expect something quasi major before next season.

Did he? What could "too much" have been? I have a hard time believing we couldn't have trumped Houston's final offer.

I'll take the 3rd place trophy.

I know somewhere a Hawks fan is giggling at this thread.

I will never believe the Jazz rejected that deal. And I'm trying hard to believe the Jazz did not try harder to get Harden.

I just got to this thread. Does it matter who "Ty is better than"? He's just not a good coach. Our offensive system is pathetic. We're going to be rolling into the season next year with all kids. Does anyone seriously think Ty has the vision to handle that?

There's nothing to analyze in this game. We just stunk. Disasters happen. But I'd feel better if we at least missed a bunch of easy shots generated from an offense we don't have. Defensively, I'm not sure what to think. We were terrible, terrible, terrible on the PnR, but they made everything.

George is much better than Hayward, but I don't think that was obvious before the draft. And Hayward is good, so it's not like drafting him was a mistake. The mistake would be to overrate Hayward and not try to deal him for a better player, or even worse extend him after this season when we...

You lost me at resign Mo. But I'm not worried about a 3rd big so much as I'm worried about getting value for Al and Sap, whether it's trading them or letting them expire. But just to keep being a broken record, I'm a lot more worried that Ty won't be fired.

All I would say is this: If you have a DVR: watch the offense with Al in it. And then watch it when he's not in it. It's no different. The ball doesn't move more. Guys don't cut more. Favors and Kanter are getting the same shots Al does (and passing LESS.) The only difference is our...

Getting crazy about the subs and the in game coaching is worrying about the icing on a turd. He did OK with that tonight. Burks was subbed in early in a good matchup with Meeks. He tried to pick on Clark with Hayward which only sorta worked, but was the right call. He's slow on the TO like...

And what I'm saying is no players we have could overcome the sucky system.
