Boston just gave GS Crawford and Brooks. Terrible for both our picks.

Marshon Brooks. He was drafted by the Nets and did pretty well as a rookie (averaged like 15 ppg I think....volume shooter...kinda like Crawford).

Celtics got Joel Anthony and a protected pick or smth.

Heat got Tony Douglas.

Boston has a serious chance to finish with the worst record now, and GS just added some depth. ****ing hell.
 
This is exactly the sort of thing we need to do.

Trade Jeff and Marv for a 2nd round pick for all I care, just GET RID OF THEM.

Oh ya i know brooks.
He getting tossed around alot it seems.

Homeless mans burks tbh
 
James (Philly)

Chad, which lottery team do you think can turn their team around the fastest if they land a top pick
Chad Ford (1:25 PM)

The Jazz. I really like their stable of young players. Gordon Hayward, Derrick Favors, Enes Kanter, Trey Burke and Alex Burks all have so much talent. If they could add an alpha dog like Jabari Parker (who I think is a lock to go to Utah at No. 1 if they win the top pick) ... I think they will be a playoff team in the West next year.

This is why we need to tank. Gosh dang it Lindsey, stinking Danny Ainge is out tanking you right now. Get some trades done!
 
This doesn't look good. Wouldn't be surprised if Rondo has "soreness" in his knee after playing a few games and is sat for another month. Ainge is playing their fan base and he doesn't do things half ***. Next year they reload with a healthy Rondo, top 3 pick, and possibly Hayward if they max him. That's a very quick and ruthless rebuild.
 
Chicago and Orlando are going to overtime. (Let's go Magic!)
Philly should win vs. Charlotte.
Washington beats Miami.
Boston is up.
New Orleans is up.
Milwaukee is only down by 3.

And the Jazz are trailing the Spurs, but are playing hard.

Good night so far for the tank.

76ers with that W!
 
Yeah. That was crap. Too bad Milwaukee couldn't keep up either. As long as the Jazz end up in the bottom 4 I'll be pretty happy. There's a good player to be had in those top six picks. After that, the drop off looks significant.
 
Orlando and Bucks are hopeless causes. Its a race for third if you ask me. Chicago beating Orlando is a good thing. And Milwaukee has 2 wins in 17 games. They aren't going to pass the Jazz. Hopefully the Lakers can win. NO is on a bad streak too. They need to start winning some games.

This is dead on. The best the Jazz can tank is 3rd. Still good odds to get that star piece to add to what they already have, but they have to stay in that range. It's starting to look like all of Favors, Kanter, Hayward, Burks and Burke are capable of turning in good performances the rest of the season. That does not bode well for the tank unless DL shreds the bench and makes it impossible for them to keep up when the Core5 aren't on the floor.

Jazz are looking to me like they will get the 10th pick or right around there :-(

Long ago i said goodbye to wiggins and jabari. Then i waved goodbye to embiid, randle and exum. Recently i said audios to smart, and gordon.

At this point im hoping for vonleh i guess.

Time to start watching indiana hoosier games.

Or the dude from ucla (lavine?)

its depressing.

But at the jazz are in fact fun to watch play

I will say this- If Kanter and Burks are as close to as good as they've looked recently, the Jazz don't need to tank. They are a .500 team with young and improving players that needs a couple more pieces - a mid-lottery pick and a solid FA signing or two. If Kanter and Burks are close to what we've seen, the Jazz have five really good young players and should have a chance to contend in 2-3 years by adding some bench pieces and improvement and experience from the five. Granted, those are some pretty hefty "ifs", but what the hell - why not have a sip of the Kool-Aid?

But in a few years the Jazz won't be able to afford 5-6 players that all demand over 10 million per year. They need a young star that is cheap for the next 7 years (relatively) to go with the 3-4 players they end up keeping from this group.

That's just it. If all five guys end up being really good, you have the luxury of letting one go, if you have to for salary purposes, and keeping four good players and building around them.

At the beginning of the year, if Corbin would have committed to the youth movement, this season was a win-win. You commit to the youth movement, you're terrible, you have an opportunity to pull the trigger on a young star. Or you commit to the youth movement, you end up in the back half of the lottery, that means your young players are pretty damn good, so you just build around them with other solid pieces.
