    Taylor Hendricks injury thread

    Sometimes you just get horrible luck with injury mechanisms. In this case It looked like he slipped, lost balance, then fell over his own foot.

    The only way for a player to be a must in a trade conversation is for him to be some basketball messiah ?

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    It does, but at this point 3 months might be something like grade 1 ankle sprain in Exum's recovery scale.

    Game Thread Oct 07, 2024 07:00PM MT: Houston Rockets @ Utah Jazz (Preseason)

    As far as what I could read of Cy's post, he didn't mention that Markkanen on ball creation nears someone like Kawhi Leonard, Lebron James, Kevin Durant or even a healthy Zion Williamson, nor that Flagg gonna be this good at that as these guys, either out of the gate, or at his peak. What I...

    I'll be waiting to see If the initial lineup stays the same for this one. Also maybe I'll actually watch this one, unlike the first preseason game, so may be interesting seeing the players against decent NBA competition and which lineups other than the starting one Hardy gonna throw out there.

    John Collins and The Clippers

    If the Wolves were to trade Randle, they would lose Nas Reid scoring punch off the bench (or Donte). And still is a thing of throughout lineups, depth, etc. I actually think It's funny that what concerns you the most in that trade scenario is "the Wolves doesn't need another scorer that can...

    John Collins and The Clippers

    Donte is a very nice player, but If they were to trade away from Randle, I believe they would (or should) want another offense initiator, even If an off the bench one.

    John Collins and The Clippers

    Even more in a world that they trade away Randle, a bench scorer as Powell would make a lot of sense to the Wolves. I was surprised to read that, but It seems ESPN reports that Terrance Mann somehow is trade available. A package with both would make sense to me, another offense initiator off...

    John Collins and The Clippers

    I have the Clippers as the team that makes the most sense to be calling Wolves to take Randle. As they're trying to win games, It makes way very little sense to target Collins, even as a desperate move.

    Training Camp Thread

    I don't disagree with that, but I still fear that mindset about the whole "capture the Flagg" (nice name you coined) game.

    Still think It's more likely that Collins starts at center with Hendricks as PF than he being paired again with Kessler.

    Jazz Future Pick Watch: Minnesota Timberwolves are nearing a trade to send Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo

    I think this can make both better, but it's the Wolves job now to get rid of Randle

    Jazz Future Pick Watch: Minnesota Timberwolves are nearing a trade to send Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo

    Man, I forgot the player option, that contract is even worse considering the risk of another year But I think the natural move for the Wolves is taking anything from a desperate franchise such as the Warriors, Suns, Lakers, Clippers for Randle. Something like a Hachimura, Gabe Vincent and a 2nd.

    KAT traded to Knicks - impact on ‘25 pick?

    The worst I could see that going for them is Randle tanking their locker room, but they can simply waive him. Still think the most logical path for them is to trade Randle and start Naz Reid.

    Jazz Future Pick Watch: Minnesota Timberwolves are nearing a trade to send Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo

    That's a curious trade for the Wolves to say the least. Naz Reid become a starter is a simple obvious and natural way to replace KAT that was always there But I doubt Randle would accept revert back to the 6th man role he actually would be a great player instead of the starter Jordan Clarkson...

    Can Lauri learn passing?

    I wouldn't bank on that, don't think It seems like something that looks like in a position to become a big and or defining part of his game. Still, it's a tanking season, so they should experiment on things (at least on things that have actual upside, unlike Sochan as PG for the Spurs), as even...

    Jazz Sign Patty Mills

    Possibly. Dunno If there's a limit in the league for ded australians players, that could derail the deal

    Jazz Sign Patty Mills

    Considering what we saw in the past, the most I'd say minutes wise is that Patty could be there as an extra guy with a different playstyle to Clarkson to be playing out there If George isn't earning his minutes on the court.
