first official 2015 - 2016 season retrospective thread

Well most draft boards still have Skal Labissiere around 12/14 range...if he's there Jazz need to grab him quickly.The kid has big potential and playing backup behind Gobert allows him to mature in the NBA. A frontcourt of Gobert/Labissiere & Favors/Lyles would be a highly skilled frontcourt for years.
 
Awwww, that sickly familiar feeling of not knowing whether it's better to lose or win. Almost a decade of this confusion.
 
I don't want it to be "we should have tanked". Gotta climb the lottery before it's too late.

And DL will draft another ballerina like Lyles. We're ****** while Lindsey remains in charge and a cheap *** board controls the finances.

Now that I'm living in the Bay Area, I guess I'll have to warm up to the Warriors. I hate being a bandwagon fan, but the team I've supported for 35 years is stuck in mediocrity. Jazz are about to become the Kings. Lindsey will preach his "don't skip steps" garbage again, and do nothing to seriously improve the team - other than a pick and counting on Exum to return. Then Hayward opts out and leaves, dropping the Jazz back into the lottery in two more seasons. All the while, Emperor Lindsey will play his fiddle while the franchise burns.

I will ****ing vomit if DL even tries to sell some "Exum is our big acquisition" crap to us after another offseason of hand-sitting.

Get the puke bucket ready... That's happening for sure.
 
I should have bumped this last night. I have a feeling many of you are in the mood to join.
 
You know what would have really helped down the stretch?

A nice veteran presence to help our team not collectively **** their pants.

We had to bake a cake tho.
 
So, how does the board feel about Hood?

Me? He's a nice player. A solid starter, an excellent sixth man.

I think Utah needs a starting wing to go with Hayward and another big that can play.

Exum/Mack/Neto
Starting wing/Burks
Hayward/Hood/Ingles
Favors/Lyle
Gobert/FA big to play when Favors and Gobert miss half the year

Hood is definitely legit. I can't wait to see Year 3.

Define legit. This board has a tendency to overrate role players.

Is he Burks legit? Ronnie Brewer legit?

Hayward legit?

If you could get a starting two, do you do it and move Hood to the bench?

Hood is a legit starting player. I think he'll be our best offensive player as early as next year.

"This season was supposed to be a season of discovery, an experiment to see if Rudy and Favors could play together, if the Triple wing would work, if Dante could play, etc...and the experiment failed.

The injuries kept the Jazz from finding out if what they had was good enough. And now the Jazz are down to one year on Hayward's contract and they are out of time to experiment, but they may not know much more than they did a year ago."


Lindsey has some work to do this summer. Difficult choices ahead.

I agree that they don't know what they wish they knew. But, they better know a helluva lot.

It is definitely time for Lindsey to get to work.
