I was just about to ask you: "3rd? Really?".
You also need to give everyone some slack. We've been told the Jazz really want to be competitive and that they really want the pick to convey. I don't think they care a ton if the pick conveys but the logic of pushing in with the purpose of the pick conveying has always been nonsense... and it seems to be growing with the dumbest Jazz online personalities pushing it.
I would put Simone at 3rd or 4th. It's tough between him and Walker because Walker has more dominant minutes, but SImone was more consistent in a consistently more valuable role.
I loved KO, but his age was too old to keep long-term. He was a bit of the crutch for the team and not something you want to get too use to I guess.
I think Ainge is a genius. He essentially converted Royce into Brice, Kevin Knox II, the Italian dude and the Wiz 2nd round pick. That's a pretty good haul.
Not a bad shout out. Maybe Lauri wants the gang back together for another go?
Beauchamp and the Blazers pick
We havent traded out a single guard really. Thats the weirdest part of all this. Ochai plays 3 exclusively, and THT+Sexton+JC are just not compatible.
I love that all of your posts match your Eeyore.
He will be out 6 to 8 weeks after eating his first plate of okra. . .
When do you think his skillset declines enough for this to be true? If he has 3-4 years left in the tank his skillset and role are a huge benefit. Every very good team needs guys that do what KO and Tech did for us.
