What's new

Anyone else think we should've kept Millsap?

Absolutely ****ing incredible.

Everyone is aware that Millsap in year five and beyond is better than Favors has ever been (and he just finished year 6), right? Apparently not.

But sure, you're not technically wrong. Ginobili has been better than the player he subs in for as well.

I'm just saying now what I was saying then. And maybe you missed the part where I said he is obviously more than a bench player. But yeah, if you can get a very good starter to come off the bench then that's a good thing, right? And maybe if Millsap was happily coming off the bench for Favors we eventually decide he's actually the better option to start and then we have to hope Favors is willing to come off the bench.
 
We let Millsap and Jefferson walk to tank for





Wait for it

























Dante Exum

























Maybe we should let Hayward walk for nothing too.
 
There's a large contingent of Jazz fans that will bury their heads up their asses no matter what Millsap does and I have to either accept that or do a better job of ignoring buffoonery.

Did someone piss in your mouth thissmorning or just on your face?
 
I love Millsap, but there is a BIG assumption some of you are making: That Millsap would have developed in Utah the way he developed in Atlanta. He was in a rut during his last year here, his energy was lower than before, he was not developing, and he needed a change of scenery.

Go to hell and burn in a lake of hot lava! A laker of hot lava!
 
Unless Exum turns into an extremely good player, it certifiably was a mistake (Gobert and Hood still would've been available to draft). Even if that means they traded Millsap. Totally wasted asset.

Letting him walk for nothing was without a doubt, the mistake. He was unrestricted on a team that was barely a pretender. I'll never understand why so many fans assume Utah actually had a choice in the matter. I believe Sap was on his way out, regardless.

And I'll never understand hoes who think loyalty does not matter. Trust me, Hayward n Faves are lifers.

Questioning his development is one thing, but you are buying into a lie of you think he lacked something his last year in utah. His numbers were virtually the same. He wasn't in decline at all.

He said he was really surprised utah didn't even give him an offer. By all accounts he liked the organization and wanted to stay.
 
Or neither.

And I'm not sure buffoonery explains the strange fixation on length. Who enjoys daily reminders of their inadequacies, even when perched safely high up in the cab of their lifted pickup? There's something self-affirming about proclaiming 'we have length!'

I have no doubts he was surprised at not getting an offer, but I'm not buying the wanting to stay part. The team had clearly regressed each year over his last 3, and his body language the last year appeared to me as a player who had lost interest. Anyway, we've been over this enough times, that I'm sure I won't be changing anyone's mind.

Either way, Utah made the right decision to rebuild IMO, and the big mistake was not making it 1.5 years sooner.

Carry on.

Maybe? Eventually? Jesus.

So much dumb.
