"You Gotta Love It Baby" Official Jazz thread

[The_Douger]

The front office is trying to sell us on all this cap space and this bright future, but there's really nobody special this upcoming summer that would come to Utah. Chris Paul will sign somewhere, but he's not coming to Utah. Sap and Jefferson are the next two biggest names. The ceiling on this group is a lower seed or missing the playoffs as teams like the LAL get it together.

I guess you could hope for sign and trades, as wapiti mentioned, but I'm just tired of this extremely conservative approach that they continue to take. It's unfortunate we aren't lucky enough to have an owner and front office that will wheel and deal like Mark Cuban.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'd like to see them be more aggressive with their philosophy. I'm well aware this won't happen.

Free agency is only one part of the consideration with respect to their cap space. To think it's only about that is short-sighted.

What would you like to see them do this summer?

[smokymountainrain]

Al can't throw the ball in the ocean early.

[smokymountainrain]

Ugh. Down 11 mid first q.

He was pretty darn close on that dunk attempt running down the lane!

[LiveCoug]

So, uh, Millsap has all 13 of the Jazz points.

[smokymountainrain]

Odom is the first big man off the bench for LAC. Millsap has 13 points in the 1st quarter. Perhaps, rather than Odom who is total garbage, that first big off the bench could be Sap. If the Clips were serious about trying to win a title this year, one would think Sap could have helped them more than Bledsoe.

[LiveCoug]

And the 2nd team leads a comeback after the starters were inept.... again.

[smokymountainrain]

Effin Crawford.

And the 2nd team leads a comeback after the starters were inept.... again.

Like clockwork, Clippers start the 2nd half on a (edit)14-0 run against the starters. Up by 16.

[MarkGrace]

Nice start to 3rd, dipshits.

[smokymountainrain]

Marvin Williams shouldn't get off the bench for this team. Right now he is playing ahead of Hayward and Carroll. Let that sink in for a moment.

[smokymountainrain]

Griffin just stood up with the ball. No travel call.

[smokymountainrain]

Jazz getting taken to the woodshed, but Hayward is dominating out there. Fun to watch.
