@SleeperJazz That's a wild take of his. (And it's not like we didn't trade for 3/5 of next year's starting lineup.) I think the exception I take is that the Jazz weren't supporting losing. They're building a 'ship contender. Those are WILDLY different things.

I think I would rather be "as stupid as they come" than be as pessimistic as they come... The Jazz will be a playoff team next year, and whether you hated the rebuild or not, you will be cheering for them.

@SleeperJazz U idiots that think next season will produce a winner are as stupid as they come. There is no guarantee of anything. There is no guarantee Hardy can even coach. OKC traded for their mvp. All other tabk teams havent won. People who support losing are as pathetic as they come.

@AndrewDBailey Vegas (and the surrounding area) is home 5 native rattlesnakes species. The Las Vegas Rattlesnakes - or Las Vegas Sidewinders is fierce, relevant and clearly a very good branding option.

Jerrod Calhoun on the Utah State head coaching job he just vacated: "Utah State is a top 30 job in America. It truly is. It's a place that has an incredible student body, 3,800 students every night...But I can tell you this, when we got the 9 seed after winning 28 games and a regular season title and a tournament title, that was pretty telling."

@SleeperJazz Idk. First ya gotta know what you have. I think what we did with Ace this year would work just fine with a top 4 pick, too. Let’s say we get Boozer and his game doesn’t translate. No reason to sit Trip or LM for a rook.

Question: Who goes to the bench if our top-4 pick gets the start on opening night? 😬 My personal feeling is this: Why would we go through all of this trouble, pain, and misery to get a franchise changing player just for them to sit on the bench their first year? If we land Boozer, DP, or Dybantsa... they need to start. 😳

Only 10 more games of this tanking crap. Lets go 0-10, pray for some lottery luck (🤣), and close this terrible chapter of Jazz basketball for good. #TakeNote

I don’t mean to be hyperbolic but today’s Wizards Jazz game is the most important moment in human history.

Told someone very important to me how I felt about her a month or so ago. The feelings aren’t reciprocated which is obviously sad. But. I didn’t self-deprecate. Honestly haven’t been able to do that since before my mission. That’s progress imo.

@Cam_S1990 @AJ3Jazz As for the DP narrative, I'm with you. I'm not buying it. I see it as a kid who knows he can only go down in his projection doing what he can to keep it high. He has no reason to play through injuries or risk further injury, etc.

@AJ3Jazz Few reasons. 1) I’m absolutely not out on him and not buying the narrative 2) I think my board is really heavy on the fit with the current jazz roster

Tier 1: 1. Aj 2. DP Tier 2: 1.boozer 2. wilson Tier 3: 1. Burries 2. Acuff 3. Mikel Brown I’d have Mikel at the top of tier 3 but back injury worries me. Any other name caller and I am not a happy man on draft night. I’m sorry Flemings/Wagler fans.

@getsit I still think no-rules transfer portal killed it. Even with no NIL, players would still "trade up" when they got the chance.

@UtahPigBus Idk, man. If that happens, it’ll be after the B1G and SEC take whatever brands have any value. Then a combined B12/ACC would be a bloated version of the 16-team WAC: Huge conference, no brands.

Utah Pig Bus@UtahPigBus·
ACC+Big12 are going to merge at some point and become a football inventory factory with all time zones, and basketball powerhouse that will pass the two other leagues. Each school would make more money individually and basketball would live in this new conference. Go Utes!

@jazzbeargryllz @Unky_Ben I mean...he said it in 2025. We weren't doing much tanking this season until the calendar flipped to '26. So I say "No lies detected." 😆

@Unky_Ben White lies are required when the franchise will be actively breaking tanking rules the entire season It was obvious to me then and it’s even more obvious that it was a lie now

RUNNIN’ UTES FANS‼️🚨 Please please please keep an eye on this name. He could be a complete game changer next season! My #1 guy I want Utah to get this portal season.
The Field of 68@TheFieldOf68

Charlotte’s Anton Bonke will be entering the transfer portal as a graduate student, he told @TheFieldOf68. The 7-2 big man averaged 10.6 ppg, 8.3 rpg and 1.5 blks for the 49ers. Played his frosh season at Eastern Arizona College and was at Providence in 24-25 before Charlotte.
