Official Locker Room Cleanout Thread

Al Jefferson: "I think I have shown that I'm not just the black hole that I've had the reputation of being in past years."

I'll defend Al and say that his passing improved immensely over the years he was here. It's not great but it was a lot better.

My bigger problem is just how much slower the offense is run when he's out there.

We have all remarked about how Ty is learning, even if it is slowly. Since we all know he will be back next year how will you judge him if:

1) He coaches a C4 centered team to the lottery?

2) He coaches a C4 centered team to the playoffs?

3) He coaches a vet/C4 team to the lottery?

4) He coaches a vet/C4 team to the playoffs?

That is a great question. Very mature to recognize that Ty is going to be here despite what a few fans are clamoring about and move onto expectations.

Lindsey either doesn't know or wouldn't tip his hand about what the team will look like next year. I hope it is young guys with a few veterans. IF so Ty ought to be judged on improvement of the C4 through the season.

I want Ty gone but I don't believe that he will be gone. I just want to see that Ty's blanket (the vets) are taken away so that his hand is forced. Hayward, Favors and Kanter are ready to start for the Jazz next year. No need to sign someone that Ty might try to play over them.

Forcing his hand when it comes to rosters won't change his disability to manage tight endgame situations, offensive and defensive variety.
 
Have you watched Gasol the last 2 years?

can he come back from his injuries? He still has talent, and maybe with motivation he can be good. At the very least, we might be able to absorb his contract to get a pick or something.
 
Gasol can barely run the floor, plays soft defense and rarely posts. He can pass though, and make 18-foot jumpers. Lets see what he looks like in the playoffs.

Well, he did have triple-double in their playoff-clinching win.
