Hardy's words for Butler seemed more forced. Just complimented his maturity, nothing about his actual game.
 
Sure, but he still had one of the best years of his career here. The Jazz maximized his ability more than basically anyone else did while winning basketball games (Mudiay never made the playoffs until Utah). The whole premise of your "THT would have been bad under Snyder" is a false one.

Mudiay didn't have one of the best years of his career with the Jazz. He was a backup off the bench, something like the 10th man. He averaged around 15 minutes of playing time during the regular season, had numerous DNPs, and wasn't in the rotation for the playoffs. He was on a minimum contract and didn't get brought back for a second season. He was effectively replaced by Trent Forrest. Pretty hard to call that successful.

Mudiay's issues were that he didn't shoot 3s well, didn't defend consistently and didn't share the ball enough.

I'm prepared for him to get cut... but I won't sell my real estate on Jared Butler Island.
 
Just listened to this whole interview... Tony said that the only team that was really serious about trading for Clarkson was the Bucks, said the Jazz would've had to take back George Hill and they weren't willing to do that.
Which is weird cuz you just cut him... he makes $4M. If the other stuff in the deal is not good then I get it, but it would have to be Allen and Hill... not sure we get a pick... so I'm good keeping JC.

Yeah, that didn't really make sense to me either. Why would Hill be the deal break when he's only making $4 million? I'm guessing they must not have offered a pick.
 
Some interesting comments from Windhorst...sounds like he thinks the tank is on, regardless of what the Jazz say. He made a good point about how everything the Jazz have said publicly over the past few months has basically been a lie.

I dont know if we have gotten bad enough for the tank to be worth it but the comments DA makes in public are full of obvious spin. It might fool a few fans until the season gets underway.
 
The problem isn't tanking. The problem that has alienated a some fans is that this is self inflicted. There were multiple ways to do this without blowing it up. And as for one who follows the draft it has to be clear that we are taking a gamble with draft picks producing anyone as good as Rudy or Donny. Fingers crossed.
No there wasn't another way to do it. The jazz were asset poor and cap strapped. The only people with issues are uneducated fans and there isn't anything you can do about that.
