[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;14668664]who knows. First you have to find a guy to build around and actually build around him unlike what they did when Gobert emerged and they continued to try and tank and never really built around him. Same with Millsap before him. You'd like to think Ainge can work his magic again but than we have reports that the owner won't trade Clarkson! Let Ainge do his job and sign the checks![/QUOTE]
I think of Ainge, that I feel you will get a good team
[QUOTE=Lee;14669199]I think of Ainge, that I feel you will get a good team[/QUOTE]
I'd think so but if the rumors are true about the owner insisting on keeping the bum Clarkson I wouldn't bet on it. Owners that don't let front offices do their job are a problem
Sarah Todd: [URL="https://*********.com/social/"]Malik Beasley (left ankle sprain) will not play in the Jazz’s preseason game tomorrow[/URL]. Udoka Azubuike also remains sidelined.

Yeh if Clarkson trade available,pull the trigger
[QUOTE=Lee;14669283]Yeh if Clarkson trade available,pull the trigger[/QUOTE]
supposedly they have trades for him and Beasley. I'm ok keeping Beasley as a young vet for the time being. Someone will want Conley eventually. He's easily their best player
[QUOTE]Keith Pompey: #Sixers coach [URL="https://*********.com/social/"]Doc Rivers on Danuel House Jr.: “I love him. I love his spirit before he gets on the court. I love his talk. He’s one of the other guys that talks a lot[/URL]. “But he shoots the ball. He’s just playing very, very smart basketball.”

he was great last year for the Jazz

[QUOTE]So far, Butler hasn't been part of coach Will Hardy's rotation, but with so many players at relatively the same skill level, that may change quickly.
[/QUOTE]
trades of Conley and Clarkson is what they need but that might bring back more competition
[QUOTE]Some of his issues can be explained away by inconsistent minutes on a veteran-laden team. That, however, doesn't clarify his Summer League showing when he struggled to create separation and run Utah's offense against players that, for the most part, won't be playing in the league this season.
[/QUOTE]
he ran the offense great. He's had a problem with scoring. Looks really small. He needs a higher release on his shot which I saw when they drafted him. He had his moments last year
[QUOTE]The good news for Butler is that many players have taken the next step when they realized something similar. Only a few NBA players excel at everything across the board; the rest survive in the league by being really good in a couple areas — or even a singular area.
[/QUOTE]
who excels at everything?
[QUOTE]"He's real talented, can shoot the ball, has great change of pace," Olynyk said. "Just trying to be able to kind of transition into a solid point guard. I don't know his back story or how point guard dominant he was when he was growing up or in college, but I think he can be really successful in this league.
[/QUOTE]
he's definitely a pg, Only Conley can run the offense better

interesting. I think they had plenty of seats at the old venue. Guess they'll just seat the lower bowl?

[QUOTE]And that’s going to be one of the storylines this season. How much are the young players going to be able to get on the floor. Agbaji is a promising prospect but he needs to time on the floor. Will that happen soon? Or will he have to earn it over the season? We’ll see as things go on.
[/QUOTE]
looks like he will have to earn it which I love. He will soon get on the floor with the Stars while they wait to dump Conley and Clarkson hopefully

Gobert the heavy favorite

was also one of many guys with the Jazz front office
Tom Orsborn: [URL="https://*********.com/social/"]Josh Richardson did not travel to Utah after suffering a minor knee injury on Sunday vs. New Orleans. Also, the charge Zach Collins drew against Zion Williamson is what landed him in the league’s concussion protocols[/URL].

How are you feeling fatigue-wise now that you’re about three weeks removed from EuroBasket? Doncic: I’m good. I had about a week off after the EuroBasket, but I’m good. I was sleeping a lot, [rejuvenated], so I’m good to go. Was it tough to stay patient as you eased back into the NBA grind? Doncic: I mean, I did everything. Just not the first day, and I didn’t play in Tulsa, but other than that I did everything. Think you’ll play Friday in the preseason finale in Utah then?
