I am amazed at how some here want to bash Corbin for everything that's gone wrong without having even a clue as to how much his hands are probably tied by Miller/KOC. For all the "yielding to vets" talk it was Ty who actually \ sent Bell home. And right after the meeting with KOC, he gets...

Getting someone in draft doesnt automatically mean that they will want to stay with the same franchise who drafted with them for a long time. That's the exception, not the norm. I guess you are still dreaming about a Stockton/Malone like pair wanting to stay here forever to win rings. Doesnt...

How long will you keep "building through the draft"? The draft doesnt yield veterans, it yields freshers. At some point you will have to pay up once the rookie contracts are up. Jazz already have a bunch of draft picks and they might get a couple more this year. The problem is in developing...

Hornacek is'nt a magician. He worked on AK and Miles for years together and they were still mediocre outside shooters after all that time. Sometimes you are just not cut out for outside shooting. IN Hayward's case another year is needed for evaluation.

I dont understand the argument about stockpiling draft picks by dumping veterans. what are you going to do with 6-7 lotto picks? Develop them all at the same time for next 2-3 years? And then, what? Will Miller be able to keep them all after their rookie contracts? Jazz already have Hayward...

I am not sure why some people here are so eager to stockpile draft picks, as if we already dont have quite a few youngsters already. It is one thing if the pick would pan out. Its also another thing whether if the pick does pan out, whether the Jazz will be able to retain all their picks when...

This thread was fun during its early days when there were actually a couple of Miles apologists here hanging around after every game to defend his performance(or lack of it)

Had to read this twice to confirm. From SLTRIB Did any of you see this coming? Probably not. Most of us were busy discussing how to dump Bell

Nothing surprising here. Millsap will always have a couple of stretches every season where he will put up big numbers and then he will fade away for other stretches. He is just 26, averaging just 31 mins and is not even the focal point of the post offense and yet we talk of him "wearing down"...

did you really think this was about the price of the ticket and Malone's affordability?

So how many years it is going to take Miles to surpass or catch up with Rip Hamilton 's peak? I's say give him another 2 years. Look how that helped Ronnie Brewer surpass Tayshawn Prince

Give him couple years and he will be better than Rip Hamilton in his prime

If he did the rebuilding right in the first place we wouldnt have to rebuild again so quikly, after just a 5-yr playoff run and diminishing results with every passing year. KOC is good at salvaging something out of a crisis type of situation and his fans applaud him for that. But what they...

who expects Big Al to play like Garnett anyways, after a few workouts in the gym? If working out is going to improve his conditioning and thereby his mobility/quickness/defensive stamina even a small bit, it is still improvement that is very much welcome. Did anyone here say that workouts is...

Sloan had nothing much to do with Jazz's defensive struggles. This team just had a bunch of mediocre defenders some of whom lacked in lateral quickness and some of whom were young and clueless. On top of that there was a star player-coach feud going on behind the scenes for the whole season. If...

Really? You really think Jazz were "lucky" to get Osterfart? Shows how deprived the Jazz center position has been for years. Osterfart had one decent season to get the contract he got and then just destroyed whatever hopes Stock and Malone would have had for a legit title shot the following...

Except that list isnt available at 82games.com. So give Ingamestrategy a break

And who are the Ostertags and Fesenkos that Thibodeau turned into great players with his coaching "insight"? Or for that matter Popovich? If anything, Sloan has turned more second round picks into decent-looking role players in the Jazz system When they leave the Jazz and go play in another...

That could be said for most players. Most players who develop and shine put in their own work a lot during offseason. So extending your (il)logic NO coach should ever be credited for a player's development. Rest of your post is the same nonsense you have been vomiting here since forever...

The likes of Millsap and Hayward are laughing at this
