I still don't understand why our FO bent over backwards to help out the Lakers while getting absolutely no benefit in return.

No benefit… besides the best asset in the deal and improve the one thing the Jazz were trying to find a way to improve all year?

The Jazz also gave the Lakers 0 actually good players. Getting rid of Russ was 70% of the improvement which did not require us.

As much as it hurts to say this, the best thing may actually be for the Lakers to still be in the playoffs on May 16 and for the league to indirectly acknowledge our contributions and willingness to play along.

Memphis wasn’t able to solve the relentless pnr by the Lakers trio of reeves, dlo and Schroeder. These guys can facilitate and ran the offense with precision. It was fun to watch. And it was fun to see an arrogant team like Memphis lose

Well, even though I dislike the Fakers immensely, it sure was satisfying seeing them beat an arrogant team like the Grizzlies. These fools think they have a rivalry going against the Fakers and Warriors. lol I mean, they gonna win a 'ship first before jumping to that conclusion.

I poke bears… then run away very fast

man watching AD just makes me think what might have been. Dude is so good. Perfect player to combat small ball. Can guard the perimeter and is great at punishing the smaller defender. Too bad he was hurt his whole career. I feel like he could have had a couple of mvp seasons.

I bet you do, probably in public toilets.

Let chaos reign. All this chaos helps the Jazz long term.

He forgot to include THT, who came to the Jazz as a secondary deal from Pat Beverley - who was a part of the Gobert trade.

What a haul.
