    Favors = passion?

    Agree on all your points Vermin. And i won't be unhappy with him at all and hope he will be here for years to come. Obviously he has a certain type of passion, can't compete if you don't . Lack of fire seems to be right description.

    Favors = passion?

    Have always kind of admired Derrick's demeanor on the floor. Seems to be concentrated, under control, unflappable, never demonstrable. Personally all attributes that i like to see in a player. But, lately i have begun to wonder if there might be a little lack of passion in his game. I keep...

    Alec Burks Highlights vs. Denver 1/13/14

    Alec shows serious signs that he may develop into our star player. I am delighted. He has the goods and has worked hard on improving. No matter how much talent someone has, they have to work hard to develop and learn. Alec has done that. Could not be happier!! Go Burks!!!

    If one of our players became a star?

    This thread has proven one thing to me. That perception is everything in our human brains. Any proof aside we have our perceptions and will go to any argument to prove ourselves right. Stats can be deceptive, they can also illuminate with clarity. Its all in what stats you present. Its a...

    Following potential 2014 draftees

    Mayhaps i have seen him at the wrong times. But i have yet to see the guy be a dominant player in a game. He may have had those moments but i haven't seen them. What, no take on Delon Wright? Perhaps you haven't seen him yet.

    Following potential 2014 draftees

    Parker looks to me to be the guy we need. Wiggins obviously has great athletic ability but so does 100's of other college players. I have mentioned this before and got NO response. Has anyone taken a good look at Delon Wright of the U of U? This guy is currently 2nd in the NCAA in shooting...

    Utah Jazz VS the cavs moo....Fri. Jan 10 7:00 PM ROOT Sports 97.5 FM / 1280 AM / 960 AM

    Well Exactly right doubledribble! This is why i have tried to discourage jazzfanz posters from having to much faith in tanking and what it could bring us. What seems to be conventional wisdom today changes drastically after the fact. So many examples like this that are just being ignored by...

    Eric Gordon available?

    God i hate this thread. ^ is right, obviously! Never, ever, expect anyone on this forum to agree with you again. But agree i must. The only people laughing harder than Pelicans is (most) Jazz fans. Don't want no Eric Gordon, even for free.

    Tank move: Andrew Bynum

    LA/Cleveland discussion reports aside. I believe those reports are mostly just journalistic stabs in the dark. Seems logical to me that a guy with as many years in the league as Bynum who has disappointed where ever he has been and now says he really doesn't like basketball much, is pretty...

    jazz news forum is awesome

    Good catch oldtimer. Don't think you will get much kevetching from anyone about that article. Most everyone alive agrees with it. Even me!! And i'm not a tanker buff.

    Integrity?

    That's cool. But he doesn't like cheese. What are we, animals? < Self answering question. Of course we are or we wouldn't like beer and boobs. I call them the trinity. Beer, Boobs and Cheese.

    Tank move: Andrew Bynum

    Its all good. We all want the same thing do we not? For the Jazz to progress and build a team that challenges for a title again. Just because we have different ideas about how to get there is unimportant (not to mention useless). I too want as high a pick as we can legitimately get. I hope...

    Damn, you were doing great until you got to the last two sentences.

    Tank move: Andrew Bynum

    No, if i typed Brown then it's just that a typo. Obviously meant Elton Brand. Oops. And infection didn't catch it? He could of used that as a powerful argument.

    Tank move: Andrew Bynum

    No! What i am saying is gaining the number 1 pick has not shown to be a way to win a championship. If you draft #1 who goes 2,3,4,5 is immaterial unless you have those picks also. Your argument is specious.

    Tank move: Andrew Bynum

    "He who disregards history is doomed to repeat it". One of the great axioms of history and one i believe in. You are a true believer infection and sometimes that does work. Otherwise known as dumb luck.

    Tank move: Andrew Bynum

    Elton Brand, Kenyon Martin, Kwame Brown, Yao Ming, LeBron James, Dwight Howard, Andrew Bogut, Andrea Bargnani, Greg Oden, Derrick Rose, Blake Griffin, John Wall, Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis, Anthony Bennett. The last 15 #1 picks in the NBA draft. How many of these players have driven their...
