"You Gotta Love It Baby" Official Jazz thread

[Color Me Badd Fan]

Jensen was this year's coach of the year in the NBDL.

Has anyone entertained the possibility that he'll suit up?

Does he still have that Caesar cut from 1999?

Totally unsubstantiated rumor from Jazz board that Cleveland offered #1 and Waiters for Kanter and #14. Probably completely made up, but would you?

[The_Douger]

What do you think of Waiters? With guys like him you wonder if they're good or if they're just a guy filling a stat sheet on a bad team. I like Kanter better than Noel at this point, but I'm not too keen on taking on a guy that has a serious knee injury, especially if they're a big.

No. The UnderKanter is going to dominate this league.

I think Zeller is going to be this year's Roy, Pierce, or Leonard. Someone that produced well in college, that tested well, that teams liked, yet fell in the draft. I hate Zeller's short arms, but I swear if he was black and tested like he did at the combine and has the skills he has there is no way we'd be talking about him falling outside the top 3 in this draft.

Looks like McLemore might be that guy in this draft.

Did I just hear Burke to Utah rumors? interesting.

[The_Douger]

You have more on that? What's the deal we're doign?

[woot]

Looks like Utah gets Burke, they give up 14 and 21. That'll be fun. I used to be a huge Jazz fan and now I have a good reason to follow them again (assuming this sticks).

[Blueintheface]

Please let this be true.

So does Utah still do the Stockton style pick & roll thing? That's Burke's bread and butter. A lot of similarities there, actually. Burke isn't an elite athlete, but he plays hard, is a great leader, runs the pick & roll to perfection, unselfish with the ball but knows when to take over a game, extremely high basketball IQ, and takes very good care of the ball.

I love this move. The 14 and 21 picks this year are just about worthless. To trade them for one of the six players who may be All-Stars one day is great.

I'd love to see

Burke
Burkes
Hayward
Favors
Kanter

start all year. Don't care if they lose 50 games. We need to see what these kids can do.

Not sure I'd go that far. This draft is actually very strong in the 15-45 range. Lots of talk about teams being able to get similar players at 35 and 15.

14 and 21 for Trey Burke? Well done Jazz!

The Jazz aren't looking for solid bench guys. So for them, worthless, IMO.

[LiveCoug]

I guess they could have had Shabazz
