I’m super stoked. This series is gravy to me... if we win awesome... if not this season is a huge success. We have more work to do but it’s already a huge success. DM gonna get a playoff win in his first season... took AD 6 years. The future is bright and if a couple things break our way we are gold.

OKC ain’t about that contendership. We shall see if dices roll on Jazz favor. This only requires a healthy roster and not getting psyched out, keep passing.

Sounds like you're expecting the Jazz to lose.
No. I just have a can’t lose attitude.
I don’t know if we are in control this series because of what Westbrook and George can do individually. I think we can win doe, but need the stars to fade or at least not go supernova like PG did.
I was encouraged by many things in game one. DM being great obvi... but Exum doing things was great too. I think he may need to play more and we may have to live with the mistakes.

On paper they should already have rocked this league.

I wonder what Mr. Hayward is thinking right now. I know it’s silly to even thing about it, and the fallout of the Fourth of July has ended up better than we could’ve ever dreamed. I’m thrilled.
But Mitchell was already on the Jazz when Hayward left, remember him tweeting Hayward with both of them on 2k? I remember vividly a post I made saying that id be terrified to leave because what if Mitchell is awesome and he left. Welp....
He would be absolutely perfect in this series and this team. Mitchell has the killer instinct alpha dog that Hayward never did. But everyone who always said Hayward would be great on a championship team as long as he wasn’t the number one option, well it ****ing happened! We gave him exactly what he needed he just didn’t know it yet. What if he had been on a five year deal instead of four? I doubt there would be much talk of him leaving this offseason.
No use whining about it, but a moment of reflection while still being so ****ing happy that we have Mitchell is fine.
We got our ‘dude’ who can lead us to the promise land, but it does suck that his perfect running mate bailed before he knew what he had, and now we are a running mate away from being a real contender.

Hayward is the type of player this teams needs. We need another wing that can create, shoot and defend. But I am guessing Hayward is looking at next year and how wide open the East is and what Boston can do when healthy. That team could be looking at 5 years of finals appearances. I doubt he regrets going to Boston right now.
Hopefully we can add someone like that in the next 2 years or someone develops into that such as Exum.

I expect Lebron to go to Philly this off-season to lock up about 3-5 Finals appearances in a row.

Mitchell
Hayward
Ingles
Favors (or whoever here, a stretch four would be good)
Gobert
Is like a perfect team though. All the pieces just fit so well. We would be fantastic. And Hayward wouldn’t of had to leave money on the table or leave the city (which I honestly think was tough for him, you’re free to disagree). It matters not one bit at this point, but if you gave him truth serum and asked him if he didn’t regret staying just a bit. I bet he’d say he did. I mean he broke his leg and Kyries health going forward is a bit iffy. There is no way the thought doesn’t cross his mind every so often.

I used to think that would be a good spot for him and where he will go. I am not sure Lebron is a great fit with Simmons now though. Simmons cant play off the ball and is most effective as the primary ball handler. Maybe Lebron is willing to change his game a bit though and play off the ball a little more. I am sure Brown could figure it out if Lebron is interested.
I kind of feel the same way. I put money on the Jazz to win the series. So if they lose it's going to hurt a little. Both monetarily and as a fan who just wants them to win all of the time. But win or lose this season was a tremendous success. And the future is soooo bright. We will pretty much have this same team next year except for maybe Favors unless we make a big move. This team went on a 29-6 run to end the year. That's 60 to 65 win pace over the course of a full season. DM, Exum and others are likely to keep improving. We should have money to work with in free agency 2019. There are so many positives to take away that it would be hard to be negative at all.
That said, let's win this ****. I don't want this season to end.

I doubt they do that but, he might regret it at that point. But that is a hypothetical scenario in the future. We are talking about right now.

I don't know. Tatum and Brown are going to be hard to keep off the floor. And, they come at a fraction of the price. Hayward may become trade bait for Danny. How ironic would it be for Hayward to be traded back to the West for Boston's missing piece?

I am excited. Anxious to see the adjustments Snyder will make. Thunder had a really good game plan. Ingles is so important to this offense, will be key to see how he gets involved.
