I just think Collin is more comfortable starting than coming off the bench. He made a couple bad decisions, but made more good ones than bad ones.

He plays differently.. he’s looking for others more as a starter.

I think it’s that he has a longer leash now. He’d get pulled any time he made a mistake before. It’s difficult to play with that level of stress.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Best years are ahead of him.

Mature THT is a problem

Mature and in a little better shape is a player I’d enjoy watching for sometime.

The tankers have to be so angry tonight.

The tankers have to be so angry tonight.

You have no idea.

Love it. LOVE IT. **** the tank.

Big story of the game: Lauri is learning how to react to double teams quicker and use them to his advantage. Never seen him do this much purposeful creating for others. The big-to-big connection with Kessler is impossible to defend once they get more reps in. Markkanen should easily average 4 assists per game with the amount of attention he's getting when he drives. And I love Kessler's ability to catch the ball in traffic. He has good hands but he's also paying attention and thinking one step ahead.

Can't believe we pulled this off.

You see it now? I did call this yesterday. The development of the future pieces was why we looked at every opportunity to move those 3. DA also probably wanted to help the Lakers as well which is gonna be positive for us if they surge.

Losing more is still a likely byproduct because of our bench.. as even though two of the pieces didnt fit I find it hard to imagine the current bench wont get bulldozed by most teams.

This team said **** the tank before the season. They continue to say **** the tank.

 

[Mr. T]

I’m hoping we tank next year especially if we don’t get a top to pick so yes they are good enough for the tank. Jones is interesting to me.

You tank next year and you guarantee Lauri is out no later than the end of his contract.

 

[fishonjazz]

It is going to get crazy when Danny forces the Jazz to play 3 on 5 in order to preserve the tank.

Wont work doe. Jazz have sexton. He has experience with that situation

I was at the game as one of the only Toronto jazzfanz representation. My friends are knowledgeable NBA fans and all admitted that with Gobert we would have not won that game or all of the last year's players. This new Jazz team got fight. Olynyk was a stat stuffer made Canada proud

Then we trade him for a haul, point is we add more assets and continue to add on. Build the team right. But, I don’t think he’d just be out the door he has it good here.
