They better not sign Landry. He's basically Ty Corbin. Do you think Ty Corbin wouldn't start Ty Corbin?

What's wrong with Tobias Harris and Nikola Vucevic? I feel like the best strategy when drafting in this range is to pick players with proven productivity and motor. Then, hopefully they have either size or athleticism to help translate the productivity to the NBA. (I doubt you'll find late...

Shabazz is now predicted to go #9 on both draftexpress and nbadraft. Kinda reminds me of what happened to Drummond after his freshman year. What would it take to move up into that range? Both our picks? Burks + 1 pick? S/T Millsap to OKC for Perk + Toronto pick?

Jazz should know better than to unleash Barea's short guy syndrome.

I know! Hayward is the king of drive and kick. Well, at least he is the king at driving and kicking it out to either Earl or Jamaal, who then stare at the ball all like, "What, you expect me to shoot this through that from all the way out here?" Edit: It's gotten better since Ty put him on...

Locke and Mahoney disagree about what disappointing means. I don't think anyone expected the jazz to win 50 games. Therefore, in terms of record, the jazz have not been disappointing. But, man, fighting for eighth seed 3 years in a row now with a rotation that can't ever be expected to do better...

According to Locke, on most nights if you pooled our starting five with the opponent's, no one from our five would get picked top six. I can just picture the team picking sixth: "Oh, man, do we have to pick one of these bums? I'd rather just play two on three." Ouch, Locke.

I was a little harsh earlier. Locke knows just how to troll me. He's right that Ty probably did get as many wins out of this team as could have reasonably been expected. However, his kind of basketball is not much to look at, especially after what we were used to, and he could have played the...

In case anyone is having a hard time wrapping their mind around Locke's logic, all you have to do is accept one truth: Corbin is omniscient. It all makes sense, see? Our most effective players play the most minutes. We know they are the most effective because Ty is omniscient and he plays them...

Locke Logic: On any given night our starting lineup is so much worse than the other teams that Ty must be an excellent coach to be winning games with inferior players. Oh, wait, Ty sets the starting lineups.

Haha, they did it again. "Well, I was gonna call a blocking foul, but this Amundson takes charges for a living. He probably knows his ****."

Face it, if you were a ref and saw someone who looks like Lou Amundson hit the deck, you'd be like, "Now that's a guy who knows how to take a charge. Who am I to judge?"

We cheered for Wesley Matthews, we cheered for Okur, yet for some reason we booed Deron. Who knows. Personally, I will always cheer for Deron and AK because they were my two favorite players and I think there's more to their stories than we understand. Mavs fans hate Fisher now, so that...

Fans boo sometimes. I refuse to believe it's to do with the geography they live in. Last year Golden State fans booed their owner during the ceremony to retire Chris Mullin's jersey. Rick Barry got on the microphone and basically told them to can it. The national media called them out for their...

I didn't boo Deron, and I wouldn't have booed last night. I just don't think it's cool of Locke to lecture the fans. He even went so far as to suggest this fanbase isn't strong or mature enough for the organization to remain viable during a tanking season. I don't believe any good can come...

I'm not saying it's not true. I would just hope the organization is asking themselves what they are doing wrong as opposed to what's wrong with their fans. And maybe instead of tactlessly instructing their paying customers how to act, they could focus on developing a better product and...

Yes, Utah's abysmal Locke Fan RatingsTM are proof that our marketplace cannot support a rebuilding season.

On today's tipoff Locke criticized Jazz fans for booing during the loss to Denver. He even went so far as to imply that players don't like playing in Utah because of how bitter and ungrateful the fans are. I would never have booed Deron, and I don't think I would have booed during the Denver...

Glitch in the matrix.

You're right. I was a bit hypocritical in my argument. Sorry. I'm just saying that an entire draft class shouldn't be judged by the name at the top of it. So there isn't any Anthony Davis in 2013, why do we care? It's not like we're picking first. Knowing what we know now, is there anyone...
