What's new

Jazz are committed to Donovan as cornerstone according to Woj

What does this mean?
Rudy is by far the best player in the trade. However, we did add guys who have quality NBA experience. If the new coach is great at his job and better than Quin, it's conceivable that a deeper team coached better can achieve what we did last year.

The coach is the most important part of this offseason.
 
Realistically...

1. Malone
2. Stockton
3. Dantley
4. Gobert
5. Maravich
6. Williams
7. Kirilenko
8. Mitchell
9. Hayward
10. Okur
11. Boozer
12. Big T

Something like that. Just off the top of my head.

This would make a good poll. Top 10 Jazz players of all time. Might need 2 to set up a 3rd.


By the way, the first 5 on this list would likely win multiple championships.

I would probably put mitchell ahead of AK but maybe not. Thats a tough one. Otherwise i think i agree with everything on your list.

Actually after thinking about it a bit more, i would probably drop malone down to 2 and put Burks #1

Woj is a speakerhead for agents/teams. He's not untrustworthy these days, but when it comes to speculation you can't really believe him. It's tactical.
 
Honest question, has Mitchell lost a step already? I seem to remember him driving and dunking on people a lot more is first two years than the last two. If he’s already losing some of his athleticism are we sure we want to build around the guy?

Good question. I dont know

I wonder what it means when he says "The Jazz are not receptive to offers for Mitchell and are going to retool around him"? Is this Mitchell's camp saying "hold on, we don't want to be traded right now when we have little to no leverage in choosing our destination"?
 
Maybe it is him realizing he doesn't need to do that and take those risks for 2pts when he can make a layup? I don't really know. But he doesn't go for those highlight reel dunks like he did his first two seasons, that is for sure.

Also, it seems when he does go for those dunks he barely gets over the rim and sometimes i have seen him not get there on an attempt.

AK's natural position was a hybrid 3/4 and played a fair amount of time (if not most) at the 3 even before Boozer. Dude would have been fantastic in this era now that I think about it. He was a defensive monster.

Ya AK career is so frustrating due to what could have been

Check out the polls I just posted. Let's do this thing!!
 
So we are picking our top 30 then what's the next step?
Next step is to have 3 lists of 10 and do the same thing again with those lists. Then we get the final 18, so maybe 2 lists of 9, then the final 10 from that. Or we look at the votes from the lists of 9 and just assemble the list of 10, need to see where it ends up. I could possibly do a final list all the way to 50, have to see the level of participation. I wanted to see if @Jason could temporarily raise the limit for poll options to 20 for the final round and have the last 18 on one poll and everyone picks their top 10 from there. I plan on leaving the polls open for at least 5 days or so. So compile stuff over the weekend or something.

Exactly this! I can’t remember honestly him just throwing it down line he used to. I understand wanting to adjust your game to remain healthier and be a better player. But I sincerely wonder if he’s already lost a step? And if so, is that really someone we want to build around?

When has Spida done something like this in the past two years? Does he still have this gear? I don’t know if he does.

Honestly, I remember Clarkson having the highlight dunks this past season or two, not Spida.
