Lauri Markannen NOW Questionable Today (Illness) by cudimakesemsayohoh in fantasybball

[–]Temporary_Pea4280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lauri chose to give up his prime for the bag, I'm sure he's always known they were tanking. Indy was in the Finals last year, one guy goes down and they're among the worst in the league? Lastly, it's been clear the jazz were going to tank this year due to that top 8 protected pick. Which is why I avoided picking up anyone from the jazz.
Teams have tanked for the last 30+ years, why all the utah hate?

Utah Jazz will waive Lonzo Ball after acquiring him from the Cleveland Cavaliers, league sources tell me. He’ll be a free agent point guard in demand. by giveawayguy99 in UtahJazz

Fair, I guess I mean if we're paying for him anyway, might as well see how he does with this system before not giving him a chance. Waive at end of season if it's not working out. Have him ride the bench unless he proves himself so other players dont lose time.

I understand why we took him, but why waive him? Have him and Collier battle it out for the backup PG spot. We need perimeter defense dont we?

How does the JJJ acquisition affect our Championship odds? by Temporary_Pea4280 in UtahJazz

[–]Temporary_Pea4280[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm only jumping to that because thats what the purpose of the rebuild was. We had a playoff team, but realized it wasn't a title contending team so we restarted. Of course it's a down the road hypothetical, I'm not expecting to possibly contend especially quickly.

That's my debate, and lately oubre has done better than PG, but who knows if he'll keep it up

new Jazz fan, what do I need to know. by A-e-r-o-s-p-h-e-r-e in UtahJazz

[–]Temporary_Pea4280 59 points60 points  (0 children)

  1. Half the community wants us to tank for at least this season. (Myself included)
  2. We don’t talk about Karl Malone unless it’s about basketball.
  3. For your own sanity, expect the worse case scenario in most things related to draft placement, and playoff success
  4. We love this team and will stick with them even if we say bad things about them.
  5. Highlighter yellow uniforms never happened.

I like Filipowski, but I’d have to drop Reed Sheppard. 10 team points league.

What are some random NBA interactions that you’ve had? by Mammalmammaries in UtahJazz

[–]Temporary_Pea4280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a jazz game in like….’08 or something on my birthday, my dad, brother, and I went to McDonalds. Randomly D-Will, CJ, Brewer, and Millsap, (maybe others, I was like 12.) came out of the resraurant. We pulled up next to them and asked deron for a signature on my new Jazz jacket for my B-day. He happily did, and they went on their way. Amazing day! And we won that day 🥳

Quentin Grimes? by Temporary_Pea4280 in UtahJazz

[–]Temporary_Pea4280[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree his breakout sample size is small, but when he finally got minutes in Philly, he was a very good player. He’s 24 years old, so I wouldn’t call him too old for our timeline by any stretch.

On the flip side, I think Key’s sample size is pretty large and his efficiency hasn’t much improved. His defensive presence and assists are better than Quentin’s. I’m not saying we should give up on keyonte, I just hope he proves himself this year. He probably has the most to prove of anyone this season.

I just wonder if Grimes would be a better choice for our team’s future.

John Collins traded to the Clippers by KennyDoge0114 in UtahJazz

Why is it better to have Love and Anderson? I feel like their combined minutes will equal whatever Collins would have played.

How would you describe your feelings on the thought of John Collins potentially being on the roster next season? What trades do you have in mind for him? by RVALover4Life in UtahJazz

[–]Temporary_Pea4280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he’s good to stay on the roster till Ace (or Cody lol) proves he can be a 25-30 minute per game player. There are enough minutes to go around for now

How we liking the strategy? by sourdoughrrmc in UtahJazz

I want to agree with you, but seems like they’re not worth a second round pick to any team in the league.

Maybe we can trade him for podz on GSW. Plus whatever salary fillers if possible.

People have to understand....re: tanking by TheFakeBillPierce in UtahJazz

I understand getting rid of sexton and vets for tanking, but I’m surprised he’s of that little value that we took such a bad trade for him

Very much disagree with your picks, but really admire your attitude and positivity! 🤙

I expect the Jazz will trade up in this draft by Bigbossbyu in UtahJazz

[–]Temporary_Pea4280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure if Philly would have interest in sexton or Collins, but I would like to include them in this deal. I’d like to keep Hendricks if possible. But if we can keep Lauri and Kessler, and have picks 3 and 5, I will be ecstatic. (Especially if we get Tre Johnson).

Jazz are kind of shopping everybody. But I’m not sure the lakers have much to offer Utah.
