Game: Jazz @ Orlando time: who cares

Most likely we will not win a championship in a while, and maybe never. All this talk about being great or terrible as the only viable options are taking much of the fun out of basketball. There will always be mediocre teams and there will always be Al Jefferons playing decent for their teams while having no shot at winning. It is still allowed to root for your team and enjoy watching them win.

So you don't even want to TRY and win a championship? Holy ****

Is there a LeBron or Duncan coming out of the draft this year? Or are you being obtuse on purpose?

YESSSSS!!!!!

That's the exact point! Where the hell have you been living the past few months? Or hell, year??? This draft is projected to be the strongest one since Lebron's!

If you don't think there are some future superstars in this draft then please watch Duke, Kansas, and Kentucky more often. Watch those 3 teams and come back and tell me whether you prefer:

A wins against Orlando which merely push us outside of the top 3.
B tanking right to give us the best chance at scoring a top 3 pick.

We just got blownout two games in a row, man. A win against Orlando is not going to define the odds.

Even if we did get a 5th pick this year, we get that luxury plus we handle free agency. There is more than one option out of this than full blown tank, some of you think we were supposed to look like a completely sour team and that is just absurd.

Id love the luxury of Jabari or Wiggins, dont get me wrong, but a win here and a win there isnt going to destroy everything this early in the season.

Who are we going to sign in free agency? Is lebron coming?

Also, just for kicks. Last 10 MVP awards have been won by players drafted 1st, 1st, 13th, 9th, 15th, and 5th.

So you are saying that the 1st pick was the mvp more often than any other pick?
interesting.........

To clarify........ i have no problem with the people saying that the players and coaches have to try to win games (i agree) and that we shouldn't complain and that we should just enjoy the wins. (i disagree that we shouldn't complain because the future of our favorite team is being jeapordized..... but i understand that sentiment)

The one i have a problem with are the ones acting like a top draft pick doesn't matter or is not relevant (jim les)

I mean according to all of jim les stats and opinions if we do somehow win the lottery and get the #1 pick then we should ask a team in the 5-16 range if we can swap picks with them.
But of course teams with a pick in that coveted 5-16 range would never go for it cause they are smart enough to know that picks 5-16 are gonna be superior players to the #1 pick most likely
 
It looks like Utah has set the table with Favors, Hayward, Burks and Burke (also still possible pieces of Kanter, Gobert and Neto) We just need that center peice. If they can land a top 3 pick then we are golden. So close and yet still so far.

Even after last nights win and the Bucks loss the Jazz are only a 1/2 game behind them. Still time to right this ship and contend for the tank lead.

There were two superstars in that draft and two guys who are pretty good but you can't build a team around. Outside of that it was a pretty weak draft. Dwyane Wade wasn't even drafted second. It's all hype, man.

Top draft picks are all hype so if we get a top 3 pick we should trade it for a much later pick or a decent caliber player (millsap, al jefferson) right?
