Jazz looking into John Lucas III

[Beantown]

From Marc Stein:

In search for backup PG, Utah has turned attention to John Lucas. Raps ex spotted huddling today at Orlando Summer League w/Jazz officials

Now we are a lock to make the playoffs!

 

[UGLI baby]

No no no noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

 

[UGLI baby]

Lucas is terrible and a chucker.

 

[BTP]

I like him!

 

[Sneakers]

Oh no, a terrible back-up player? Goes against the ethos of this year's team for sure

 

[Jazz4ever]

This guys chucking make CJ Miles look like a conservative player.

 

[jrclone]

All aboard the train to suckville

 

[NCJazz]

I still say lets go with a younger guy. Also as others have said we would want a pass first backup to feed the ball to the young ens.

 

[MoTappin]

Why the heck don't they just sign Tinsley?

 

[Stifle Tower]

All aboard the train to suckville

Hey, I'M supposed to say that. I've had the Tank Commander title under my avatar for a month.

 

[The Fresh Prince]

But, but... John Lucas the 3rds daddy coached in the NBA.
But, but... John Lucas went undarfted. He has hart!

 

[Weezur]

What if he starts over Trey?

 

[Beantown]

What if he starts over Trey?

Now that would be obvious tanking.

 

[Beantown]

I do have to say the tanking skills by the Jazz are getting better and better each day. Any chance Borchardt and Mcloud are ready to suit up?

 

[Stifle Tower]

Maybe Alec is out because of his ankle and the Jazz just need another guy to play PG for SL.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Wow!! This year will really try my patience. I will probably have to get very vulgar and abusive on jazzfanz. Where's my stress toys

 

[Stifle Tower]

Ever been that guy just walking by the court, maybe after a workout, maybe had an earlier game, when a team is one short and invites you to join their pickup game?
John Lucas III is that guy!

 

[Flc]

LOL

"Bill Oram: I can confirm Jazz officials were speaking with John Lucas III today at summer league. No idea whether that means a deal's forthcoming. Twitter @tribjazz"

Bill "Why Report the News When You Can Just Be Lazy and Wait for the National Writers to Do It" Oram.

Probably the worst beat writer in America. Hate that guy.

 

[Tarkanian]

If it was between JH III. and Jimmer for example, I'd bring Jimmer.
Yeah, while we are at it...

 

[Borat]

Why the heck don't they just sign Tinsley?

Indeed - all of the sudden Tinsley seems like a pretty good pick up. Or does Lindsey want to take a notion of idiot proof roster for Corbin to the whole new level. Then again, maybe he has to if we want Burke to get solid PT next year.
