Since when? He just came back from injury, and last time he played (before injury), he was still quite good.

you mean averaging 16 pints on 31% shooting with a whopping -4.7 BPM in the five games while he's on the court? melo actually did better with OKC last year. not to mention he's the very definition of "injury prone", no thanks

That's a tiny *** sample where his shot didn't fall. Last season he played well. We shouldn't make sweeping conclusions based on a 100 minutes of play time.

tiny sample size, yes. but still can't negate all the negatives on him. the jazz should look for upside players on their way up, not some washed-up stars used-to-be on their way down. unless it comes at a cheap price like Iso-Joe a couple of years ago, which clearly isn't the case with Love's ridiculous contract.

I don't disagree with that. No way Love lives up to his contract, and the Jazz shouldn't consider him.
 
Lulz at wanting Love. Pretty sure he has four years left at like 30M per.

People didn’t want Conley’s contract with two years left. And he plays really well both ways. Imagine four years of Love. Ugh.
 
Cleveland would have to give away an asset to trade Love. Why would they give up an asset when they are rebuilding and have to pay somebody?

Right. They'll pray he plays well enough for someone to give em expirings for him.
 
The funny **** is if we did any of the moves we wanted and lost in the 2nd round again (likely even with Conley), people would be bitching that we traded into a capped out roster.

Albert Einstein is widely credited with saying, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.”

Relying on free agency when, outside of one year in our franchise history, we don't attract good free agents is insanity. I'm patient enough to judge DL after this summer, but if we roll out the same core roster 3 years in a row, the backlash is deserved.
