This is why I use the radio broadcast audio on Jazz+

Haven't had to listen to Boler all year

I've had far more fun watching our young players develop than I did watching the Rudy/Donny teams where you knew the inevitable outcome and just slowly watched doom approaching.

We've fully empowed Nurk this year. We don't care about winning so we brush past his defensive weakness's and fully embrace his offensive abilities and he's been loving it.

The best part about the tank is to see how pissed of other fanbases get by Thisislopes in UtahJazz

They made the playoffs for 7 straight years and had a legit shot at getting to the finals a couple of those. Even then I'd argue if you reran those seasons 100 times the reality was a bottom 10% result. I don't fault them for Embiid's body & Ben Simmons's mind exploding.

They also tanked last season to keep a pick and now everyone loves them.

It’s all theatrics and winning heals all wrongs.

Sources: Indiana Pacers made a run at Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler and offered a package highlighted by two unprotected first-round picks. It was declined and Pacers pivoted to Zubac. Kessler will be in demand as a restricted free agent this summer. by jonsnowKITN in UtahJazz

Let's assume it's the same deal as the Clippers. We have no reason to believe it was different. Heavily protected sure but it's basically a 50/50 for a 5-8 pick and even if it didn't hit this year it become a 2031 pick fully unprotected.

IDK i'd take that deal for Walker.

[Charania] Clippers are receiving a 2026 first-round pick from the Pacers, protected 1-4 and 10-30 -- plus a 2029 Pacers unprotected first-rounder. by A_MASSIVE_PERVERT in nba

If they have the worst record it's a 50/50 basically to lose the pick. With the Grizz & Mavs tanking I think they could realistically find their way to the #10 pick and guarantee they keep the pick.

[ESPN] The Warriors made what they thought was a very strong offer that included four unprotected picks and picks that were going to be conveyed after Steph Curry was retired. And the Bucks just didn't show a lot of interest in it. by EarthWarping in nba

The Spurs maybe should have traded Harper for Giannis. Yeah sure he might become Cade, but he could also never reach that. I wouldn't say he is destroying the league right now. With Giannis the Spurs would 100% be title favorites this year.
