Hayward/Burks to play in the Indy Pro-Am

Are you a new Jazz fan? Most of us are tired of being a perennial first and second round fodder for the last 10 years. Its nice to play a week after the regular season, but then you're ancient history like every other team. Yes the Lakers are declining, but the Thunder are emerging. Look over their roster: Durant, Westbrook, Harden, and Ibaka. That's a superstar, an all star, and two likely all stars and none of them are even 25 yet. Add in the fact there is a small chance Howard goes there and its criminally insane. They will be the gatekeepers for the next decade and nothing short of an immense amount of talent will beat them. Drafts like this ony come around once or twice a decade, it is the logical time to load the **** up.

I've been watching the Jazz since the late 80's. Do you not see the young talent the jazz have amassed in the last year through trades and the draft to go along with good vets like Big Al Millsap Harris and Memo if healthy, and Ak if he resigns for cheap. Don't forget Evans showed promise, Earl is a good vet leader. As well as yes I know Bell sucked last year. I believe we miss used him, and played him too many minutes. If he gets 10 minutes a game he would be more affective, same goes for Miles, give him 10 to 15 minutes a game if he is playing well then give him more. When he sucks limit his minuts.

I'm so sick of these idiots that root for losing, and know nothing about what it takes to gain a winning tradition. There are two ways to build a team the jazz way, and the Clipper way. The Clippers seem to draft in the top ten just about every year, and they haven't made the playoffs more than three times in the last 25 years. I would be the most bitter man alive if the jazz shared your mentality.

Yes the level of talent is exciting. The big clincher will be the quality of player development and coaching (which, of course, includes in-game menagement).

While it's good that Horny is an official addition, I'm not overly optimistic over Corbin. It's unfortunately that Utah was probably in money-saving mode (and/or loyalty mode) when Sloan pouted outta there and they decided to promote TC. Whether it's pro basketball or any other business, loyalty for the sake of loyalty doesn't always pay (and that principal goes for both employer and employee/contractor alike).

At least the Jazz organization (and its fans) will insist on more excellence than the Clips do. Outcoaching Vinny del Negro is doable, too, fwiw.
 
I don't want to point fingers, but this is a bit overdue.

The Jazz are great!

The Jazz are our team!

Our team will win because they are the best!

Yes, there is a difference between the word "are" and "our." To that end I provided contextual examples above. I come in peace and hope that I have helped at least someone.

I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to add to your point while also adding input to the discussion.

If we don't make it TO the playoffs, we might end up with TWO picks in next years draft, would that be TOO bad?

I know it also depend on Golden State. We will likely end up with THEIR pick, but if they stink, THEY'RE going to keep it and will have a top 7 pick going THERE next year.

I know a lot of don't like to HEAR this, but if we suck and get GS pick as well, we could end up with a special thing HERE.

I am excited about OUR new players and I think THEY'RE going to be good, but they ARE still young. Its alright for them to develop slowly while hoping to add some more talent.

If we get TWO new top picks TO add to OUR team THEN that will be 6 top picks in 3 years, thats 5 more THAN we've had in the last 2 decades.

Hopefully a few reach THEIR potential and the others can develop into at least roll players.

A lot of people don't like that Hayward and Burks play the same position, but THEY'RE versatile and will find THEIR roll. THERE is nothing wrong with having talent on YOUR team. If you don't get excited about adding more, THEN YOU'RE a fool.
 
No offense, sgjazzfann, but your seemingly random use of cap'd words distracted me from your intended message. I THINK I got it, but it was a BIT painful.
OT: You in St. George?

Yeah, my message was more about the capital words themselves. They sound the same, but are spelled differently and have different meanings. Just a pet peeve of mine. I'm sure you got that though.

I am from St George but do not live there because of school right now.

Yeah but the Clippers finally got their superstar didn't they? With Blake Griffin, the Clippers could very well be waving their rings in front of our faces one day while we look up bleakly at "97/98" Western Conference Champions. How would that make you feel? It's a superstars league, can't win without one. The Jazz have to do everything in their power to acquire them through the draft when they have the chance. Because I guarantee you, there are no "big 3" texting each other and collaborating about coming to Utah.
