My write up is: Who's my second round opponent, since I got a bye week?

Gail Goodrich was one of the worst trades in NBA history. Gail chose the Jazz in FA but for some controversial reason the Jazz had to give the Lakers two picks to get him which lead to Magic Johnson. This trade also cost the Jazz getting former Utah Stars player Moses Malone. They gave up his rights to retain a pick. Despite injuries he still had a solid 2nd season with the Jazz. 16 ppg on a career best 49.5% shooting and 5 apg. Its nice to have a HOF PG playing for me.

But imagine a world where the Jazz had Magic Johnson and Moses Malone as their core... That would have lead to some serious championships right away for the team in SLC.

Its crazy that the NO Jazz team had no contingency plan if they made the playoffs. That team never even thought that was a possibility.

I often wonder what would have happened had the Utah Stars team held out or the St Louis team had won 4 more games and they would have joined the NBA and become the Utah Rockies with Moses Malone and a pretty solid roster. So many little things back then that almost happened or changed things so much. These two teams wanted to merge earlier just had poor ownership.

That 79-80 Roster would have had:
Magic
Adrian Dantley
Bernard King
Moses Malone

Plus Jazz possibly still would have drafted Malone and/or Stockton. They were not high picks.

How **** is it that Jazz tried to sign a FA and the NBA stepped in and tried to discourage FA and forced the Jazz to give the Lakers those picks. NBA screwed the Jazz over. Also it was really dumb of the Jazz to give up Moses Malone to recoup a 1st round pick.

I just met a guy living in China for 18 years who's from Detroit. He was rockin Utah jazz shorts from the s/m days. Nothing has made me happy. Especially because I'm wearing my purple faded Mitchell Jersey.

How the hell did Josh Howard go in Round 6?

And before CJ Miles?

White Chocolate's team is lulz worthy. Olden Polynice starting center?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Quick glance and Hekate is the best by a good margin.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

A lot of weird picks to me.

Like Wes Matthews going before Bryon Russell?

 

[Miggs]

Quick glance and Hekate is the best by a good margin.

Agreed. I dropped the ball by drafting Derek Fisher instead of Udoh. I was between the two guys but should’ve looked at Hekate’s roster and realized he would take Udoh. His team is basically as perfect as one can be in this thing.

Came within one pick of having a team of Spencer, Truck, Russell, Pistol, and Hill. Sooooo frustrating!!
