Start Favors at PF and Big Al at C. That's our best combo against Bynum/Gasol defensively. Love Paul, but he just doesn't have the height and in this matchup would be better off the bench.

Pretty sure it's the lottery draw.

So I guess Big Al, Paul Millsap, and Gordon Hayward are our worst players, according to +/-. I don't buy it. +/- does lie, quite often.

The Sacramento line on that site just bumped up to 18.5, suggesting somebody put some $$$$$ on the over. Maybe somebody from Jazzfanz had faith in the Jimmer.

Agree with the Bucks. The Celts may take a bunch of games off to preserve their old legs. That's what worries me about that one.

What do you guys think about Over/Under 25.5 wins for the Jazz this year? I do not endorse or encourage gambling in any way, but I would take the Jazz OVER 25.5 wins. Sacramento, with the almighty Jimmer, could probably eek out more than 17 wins as well. For those that are curious, here are...

Locke made this comment last night "He is scoring without a go to move, without really any move at all." I think Favors has a very high ceiling, but I do think he needs to develop some reliable moves to reach that.

I hope he doesn't get too discouraged when his unrealistic expectations aren't met and he finds himself in the D-league or at the end of the bench.

Does anybody else want to play Fantasy Football? I wasn't in time for the first thread's fantasy football group, but would love to start a second league for those of us not in the first group. If I get around 10 responses, I'll go ahead and start it up. I was thinking around a 16 team...

ESPN.com writer Chris Palmer has been doing stories recently (Insider Only, unfortunately) naming the Top 5 players in the NBA at each position. His list of top 5 centers was interesting. https://insider.espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/6815801/dwight-howard-best-nba-center 1. Dwight Howard 2...

Glad to see these two becoming friends. https://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/jazz/52244743-87/burks-hayward-nba-jazz.html.csp "Alec Burks had never met Gordon Hayward prior to two weeks ago. Hayward sent Burks a good-luck message June 23 after the Jazz selected the guard with the No. 12 overall pick...

Don't think NO would think about biting, but I'd love a Harris, Millsap, and next years GS pick for Chris Paul. As long as Chris Paul would agree to an extension. But, looking at what we got for Deron this wouldn't be enough. The only hope would be Chris Paul gets tired of losing in NO and...

I actually quite like Steven Jackson. He averaged 6.5 assists 2 years ago, don't think he's selfish. Assists went down in Charlotte because nobody else scored.

Let's trade Cj Miles and Raja for Steven Jackson. But only if Jackson wouldn't pout coming here.

He doesn't score because he can't score. He's the Ronnie Brewer of PGs.

Don't know if it's been said in another thread, but Charles Barkley said today: "I thought Enes Kanter was the best player in the draft to be honest with you." "If I had the #1 pick I would've taken Enes Kanter." Solid endorsement. Especially from an Arizona guy.

I just want to hold a sign saying our Enes is bigger than yours.
