With all the time we waste following the team, we could organize some protests outside Vivint.

Feels like a billboard mocking some of the ******** we get fed would be good.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Makes sense to bring back same end of bench guys. Keeps continuity in a shortened training camp session.

NWG can really play. He has been good in G-League and Europe. He hasnt had a real shot to play yet. I think he could be a Monte Morris level player.

Yeah he sux... you thought Tony Bradley was good in the g league and would be a poor mans Aldridge so...

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

I watched NWG up close and personal in summer league. The speed and size of that setting made him look inadequate. He’s not some 19 year old that needs seasoning... he’s seasoned. If he plays any meaningful rotation minutes ever I will be shocked.

Is this really a 3 year luxury roster? It's gonna cost us $150 million in 21-22.

You paying the bill?

You paying the bill?

Yes. We pay for it in all the time we’re watching a team that’s financially handcuffed, and watching those ads that drive revenue.

Maybe they are done because the guys we are interested in want more money they we have left. Or maybe they want to give some of the young guys a shot at making an impact or maybe you are right and the Jazz front office has no clue. What upsets me is that after the season ended all DL talked about was the need to get more athletic wings who could defend and not mess up spacing. So what happened?

We got bigger but not at the wings. So unless Brantley or Oni or Morgan make a huge leap we haven't really improved much. Favors helps in some ways but we still have the spacing problems we had before. I have a small hope that Hughes could be a surprise off the bench but he and Udoka are getting a raw deal having to jump right in NBA action after 9 months of not playing. No summer league and a shortened camp. So they may not contribute at all.

Watch Rudy get supermaxed to cap things off.

I like Favors and Doke as players, but adding Doke and Favors as the two “big” offseason additions really made little sense to me.

If minutes are the issue, I really think we should have moved Joe Ingles and replaced him with someone like DJJ. Joe’s best days are behind him.

I dunno. I don’t necessarily hate any of the moves individually, but the sum total doesn’t make a lot of sense.

What upsets me is that after the season ended all DL talked about was the need to get more athletic wings who could defend and not mess up spacing. So what happened? we got bigger which i think needed to happen but not on the wings. So unless Brantley or Oni or Morgan make a huge leap we haven't really improved much. Favors helps in some ways but we still have the problems we had before when you let him go. I have a small hope that perhaps could be a surprise off the bench guy but he and Udoka are getting a raw deal having to jump right in NBA action after 9 months of not playing. So they may not contribute at all.

The rooks will be fresh.

So it's

Conley - Clarkson - NWG
Mitchell - Ingles - Oni - Tucker
Bogey - Royce - Hughes
Favors - Morgan - Niang
Gobert - Udoka

So I guess it's down to NWG, Tucker, and Brantley for the last two spots?

Brantley probably gets signed to a two way so that's all folks. Time to take the kak out of the oven and start frosting it.

Oni is the new addition... it’s the classic DL rope a dope... AB and Dante were big additions 4 seasons in a row.

Here’s the thing — Add a healthy Bogey and add Favors to last year’s team and I think we beat Denver.
