The Mike Conley trade was the biggest failure in Jazz history

Why? So they could pay Conley a total of 120mil across 4 seasons? That mIKe cOnLEy?

Well first he's never a good fit next to DM and never been that caliber of a player to worth that contract. Just how many more picks/players do you want the Jazz to give up so they could afford to pay that kind of money? Mortgaging our future?

What future?
Y'all are such babies lmfao. You want to live in a world where we are perpetually hoping for a better future by not making bold moves in the present.

The Jazz made their moves and missed. Injuries suck. Aging sucks. It's all unpredictable. Jazz should move on.

The funny thing is that the Conley play had little impact on the Jazzs ability to win the game and the majority of the blame should be on Quin for not calling a TO

Coaches rarely call a TO if a transition opportunity presents itself. Conley had a number of options to pick when the defense wasn't set yet, he just made a dumb mistake. Someone was way open in the corner, Rudy was rolling hard, he could call the timeout himself when he felt he got stuck.

I get that but in a crucial game, just call the to right away. The Jazz suck donkey dick on fast break so your explanation, while valid for most teams, is complete BS for us

It's actually quite predicable that Conley wasn't worth 30mil a year and the Jazz overpaid to get a guy who's barely a borderline AS and a bad fit next to their franchise player.

He's not some rookie that no one knows about. It's all on you if you actually believed that he could be in the same conversation as Chris Paul, Jrue Holiday or other true elite PGs in the league.

Lmao, so you predicted Chris Paul would still be a top 20 player at age 37?

Show me post where you say this **** without hindsight. You just complain about every damn thing

There is merit to not taking a chance and calling a timeout. At least then, every player knows what's going to happen but I don't think either was a bad decision. It seemed to me Conley had an open path to the basket for a while and even if we weren't able to score on the fastbreak, Conley could have passed the ball and we would still be facing a scrambled Mavs defense. It just sucks that the travel happened.
 
Also where is this energy for the Donovan missed FT in the clutch? He makes that and we aren't rushing the ball down the court to get a shot. We are running the clock out for a game winner or OT

The thing is CP3 didn't even need to be this good for the Suns. On his third gear he's still miles better than Mike Conley. Plus Conley's only 2 years younger and just as injury-prone so let's not pretend there was ever a possibility where Conley could outlast Paul
 
Conley averages 9 points on 32% shooting during this entire series with horrendous advance stats on both defense/offense, and you all just wanna focus on that silly dumb play he made?
