The beginning of the season was super fun but last five games were probably the most enjoyable losing streak ever. We were competitive, had some nice plays here and there and lost by a possession or two. In the end you can't be mad that they came down to earth and it improves our draft position.

To be fair I believe the great philosopher was @fishonjazz

Ya, let’s never call Log a great philosopher ever again

@David Hume I believe those gentleman need your expertise.

 

[HermanG]

Agreed.

To be fair I believe the great philosopher was @fishonjazz , I just did what any great American does to be successful, steal shamelessly.

Whoever makes the most fame and profit in the end is the most American.

Both of our colleagues, with all due respect, have accomplished less than Kant and Machiavelli. Perhaps they are on the same level as those obscure scholars Derrida and Lacan. They must be careful not to become metaphysicians, charlatans, and mystics!

I wonder what it would take to get Martin on this roster

can't be mad per se, if they lost enough to be in the top 10, but it will only make the front office more likely to become buyers, if they don't start winning again fast. The idea that Danny Ainge is down with tanking is a bad guess I bet they still finish in the play in range at the least.
Maybe the Jazz roll with who they have, regardless of current struggles, but I can see some type of attempt to get better, not intentional tank moves soon

I put my money on tank moves over get better moves.

I am looking forward to an ***-whooping comback blowout W and killing the tank for good.

It has nothing to do with wanting to lose, it's about understanding the fact we're not good enough to win and accepting the fact the losses can theoretically help our draft position next year allowing us to become good enough to compete at a higher level. I'm enjoying watching the guys compete (although I'd rather see the young guys absorb more of the minutes for reasons that I've covered before) and the losses just don't bother me knowing where we're at as far as development at this current time.

Exactly. beeing a fan does not mean not beeing realistic. We are not good enough and better accept the fact. It does not mean that i enjoy seeing the loss. Actually i skip to look the last 4 or 5 games ( as i will do today) and look only the play by play and box score from office. I'm okay with a win but the best interest for the team now is to loose and get a decent chance for high pick.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

You keep living up to your name there, idiot!

Thanks

 

[JazzGal]

I want a win!
