Veterans are coming...time to panic?

Punch Bowl Re-Filler
Aw, HELL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

LIndsey mentioned getting back around to the players that the jazz hold the Bird rights to. Corbin also talked about the Jazz bringing in vets. Have to listen to the press conference again, but it certainly sounds like the Jazz are not going to throw the youngsters out there and, in so doing, set themselves up for a top 5-7 pick. DAMN! This is EXACTLY what the next step HAS to be. With this current group and bringing back any vets, the Jazz can again compete for that 4th spot in the West in 2-3 years, have home court for a round, then get flushed out. Utah STILL needs a franchise player. And they could get one next season. I swear, I will STOP being a Jazz fan if they bring back Al. I'll even be on the edge watching Foye chucking up 3's while Burks wastes away on the bench.

After being THRILLED last night, I feel like someone has now doused me with cold water.
 
Any FA we sign is most likely going to be a veteran FA unless we sign a really ****ty young player who's rookie option wasn't picked up.

How is Trey's post entry pass ability? Big Al will finally have a true phenom feeding him the rock.









In all seriousness, would DeMarre count as veteran leadership?
 
Jazz philosophy is that you only can win with veterans and that they are better players. You can suck as a player but as long as you have experience, you're the better player and you deserve to start.

But fact is:

Burke > Mo
Burks > Foye
Hayward > Marwin
Favors > Millsap
Kanter > Jefferson.
 
He didn't say we were gonna sign players with bird's rights, right? Just that we have players with bird's rights that we need to take care of, our figure out what to do with. Or am I wrong? Paul and Al are the only two players with which we have bird's rights.

Unfortunately, Corbin sees exactly the reverse. I fear the Jazz are bringing back Al and trading Enes. There was substance to that rumor. We read the Jazz wanted Olynyk (or Zeller) because there's serious doubt among some in the organization whether Favors and Kanter can play together. Lindsey just talked about getting back to the Jazz' Bird rights players. That means either Paul or Al. BLOODY FREAKIN' HELL! if oneof those two comes back at the expense of Kanter.
 
Woah... slow down there cowboy. Ya'll trippin. FA will work itself out, Enes isn't getting traded, be happy now

No, but why would he and Corbin be talking about the need for veterans and then Lindsey talks about our players with Bird rights?
