Rest Easy, The Jazz Will Be Awful

[framer]

I think the Jazz might have won the Patrick Beverly trade.

That has been clear since the second game of preseason.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Still think the Jazz should offer up Conley, Clarkson and Gay for Westbrook and a ‘27 super swap with any of the Jazz, Wolves or Cavs picks that year.

That has been clear since the second game of preseason.

Ehhhh Bev was declared washed the season he ended up helping the Clips make the conference finals too.

Looks like we now have zero national tv games this year.

It's time to change title of the Thread.

Yeah, don’t worry. Some of the moves were dumb. Why acquire Olynyk? Made no sense unless you want to win.

Rest Easy, the Jazz will be AWESOME!!!!!

Meanwhile in Indy... Myles Turner sprains his ankle on a ball boys foot. I watched OKC close with Poku and a guy I've never heard of... and I go to ****ing summer league every year.

This tank race will be fierce. We best not **** around too much here.

OKC executed the type of trade we could have. They have zero healthy functional centers on their roster and sent Favs away for what? Creating one big roster hole like that is what can help a team with good parts still lose.

We filled the biggest roster hole with KO... then it turns out Kessler is actually good and ready to play minutes now. We are solid and two deep at like every position. We won cuz the bench destroyed the other teams bench... that will happen several times this year.

We still may get smacked by the opening season schedule and then pivot by making a Conley/Gay/KO trade as all the pieces seem to be raising their value. Just really need some load management. Thankfully one of the Rockets games is on the backend of a back to back... so maybe we can rest all the vets and lose one to Houston (who is exciting and athletic but still a ways to go).

R.Smith has said lately that we will built team through draft.
Players make Ainge looks silly if he is thinks about 1-3 pick.
This is only one game, there is any chance we will sustain that kind of basketball but It's clear that there are about 3 teams (OKC,SA,IND) worse than UTH.
We must be 1-3 if we want find franchise changing talent.

 

[whatthe]

Find a way to trade Conley and one of the bigs.

if you're a team like the Lakers in desperate need of shooting (assuming you think you can and should compete for a title) and you watched that game last night, how can you not give Utah a screaming deal for a guy like Gay or Markannen. crazy to waste lebron's last couple years with the franchise because you want to hang on to draft picks 4 or 5 years from now.
