"You Gotta Love It Baby" Official Jazz thread

....... it'll be someone like Houston or the Kings who will ruin the #1 pick's career-- .....

I won't argue that the Kings aren't perfectly capable of ruining a high draft pick. But I went and watched them a couple of weeks ago in Kyrie's first game playing with Luka. They're actually a fun team to watch right now. They play hard, and De'aron Fox is a playmaker. Dude was getting to the paint at will and has such a nice little mid range floater. And Sabonis is a beast. A couple of more cogs in that machine and they could be a player in the west.

Cap space and a pick. That isn't nothing.

Vanderbilt alone should've netted a 1st.

We have so much draft capital and cap space--> I'm pretty excited to see what they do with it. I don't imagine we'll win the draft sweepstakes this year-- it'll be someone like Houston or the Kings who will ruin the #1 pick's career-- but there are enough solid dudes in the draft that we can make a deep team. Ainge grabbing Markkenen and Kessler were very clairvoyant moves. Hopefully he's got something else up his sleeve since we ditched Mike Copernicus Conley and Beasley with the hot hand for basically nothing.

That game was crazy. We were up 10 at the half. The Hawks came back hard in the third quarter to build a 10 point lead and that would have been all she wrote last year. This team of nobodies reached down and overcame a 4th quarter 10 point deficit to win by 6. Well okay!

It has been a lot of fun to watch. Clarkson has really changed his game. He is easily one of my favorite Jazz players of all time. I hope the team does not trade him. I'd love to see him retire in Utah.

He seems to want to retire in Utah too.

Jazz on a 4 game win streak, first place in the WC, first team in the west with 10 wins. Not sure how long this can continue, but its fun for the moment.

danny is failing. trade some more people.

Wrong thread I know - but 19 year old Shaedon Sharpe on the Blazers - is looking like the steal of the draft. His highlight reel through the first six games is better than Donovan Mitchell.

he's been incredible - albeit in limited minutes. he's clearly an elite athlete and his shooting is better than i could have ever expected.
