What's new

If you could bring back any former Jazz player

Current - Millsap without a doubt. The compliments everybody.

Past - Pistol and it's not close. An offensive weapon like that added to the defensive team we have would be title worthy.
 
Prime AK47 of course. Imagine him at 4 and Gobert defending the paint. Now that would be true Swat Lake City.

This. We could finally play AK at the 4. Our defense would take another leap, and he can score and pass like a mother-hugger.

Also, do you mean like current player who was a former Jazz in his current state, or like how he was when he was on Utah, or like any point of his career?

If any point in their career I'm still Millsap.

If at the current point of their career I'd go Hayward.

If at the best point of their Jazz career, I'd go Hayward.
 
Pistol, Malone, maybe AD in his prime, but i seem to recall he couldn't shoot well from 3.

Matt Harpring would be fun on the court with Rubio and Crowder.
 
I'll take some fringe players and make a super-star:

1. Joel Bolomboy's body and rebounding.
2. Trevor Booker's heart and tenacity.
3. Tibor Pleiss' unreal shooting mechanics.
4. Udoh's defensive prowess.
5. Jarron Collins' ability to get minutes.
6. CJ Miles' three point volume.
7. Jerebko's three point percentage.
8. DeMarre Carroll's dreads.
9. Jose Ortiz's accent.
10. JLIII's initials.
11. Niang's contract.
12. Trey Lyles' balance.
13. Grayson's hand pads.
14. John Amaechi's perceived intelligence.
15. Hoffa's strength and willingness to get nasty and lay down a flagrant (or two).
16. Fesenko's standing reach.
17. Larry Miller's willingness to get into a scuffle with opposing fans.
18. Ben Handlogten's feel-good story.
19. Keith Mcleod's high school coach.
20. Steve Novak's long-ball.
21. Naz Long's per-36 scoring ability.
22. Thurl Bailey's goggles.
23. Boris Diaw's passing, vision, and charm.

Pretty sure that guy takes us over the top.

24. Keon Clark's crack pipe thin legs

AD's iso game would be one of the worse fits under Quin's system. Dave Blackwell said something to the effect that by the time Dantley decided what to do with the ball, the rest of the team had fallen asleep.

I vote for Pistol Pete, although prime Milsap would be a great fit.
 
Ha, im not old enough to remember Dantley on the Jazz. But i remember and miss Dave Blackwell. I rescind my nomination.

Can I still have Harpring and Crowder for the all scrum second team?
 
Just imagine a lineup with Grayson, Harpring, Ingles, Thabo and Gobert. That team would annoy the ever loving crap out of the opponent.

You forgot someone.

He wouldn't be my first guy, but gawd I'd love to see Memo on this roster at 25 - 27 years old.

Malone
Stockton
Blue Edwards (love, love, love his dunks)
Boozer (when he played, he was pretty damn good)
Millsap
AK
DWill
Dunkenstein


Hayward can go **** himself though.
