This is just false. They are tanking this year, but most certainly not the past few years. I wish Ainge had been tanking wayyy harder the past few years. Wasted 2-3 seasons being a middle of the road team. Especially knowing a guy like Wemby was in the draft. Those of us who have been wishing the Jazz would finally tank were screaming at the sky these past few years theh weren’t doing it right. Finally they are doing it right. And I hope they do it for at minimum 1 more season, but if they don’t get Flagg they will be looking at doing it 2-4 more seasons.
Not remotely true IMO.
The Jazz have been furiously tanking for the past 3 years. Aigne is shady AF about it too. The only difference is Will Hardy- your coach is excellent and has given you way more wins then the front office (Ainge) would've wanted.
You don't know what you're talking about. Utah was playing to win the last 2 years right up until the trade deadline, when they made trades that were tank moves. They tanked half the year for the last 2 seasons which is something half the league does to some degree when they realize the season isn't playing out as well as they hoped. It also results in a half-assed tank which doesn't result in a high pick. They picked 9th and 10th the last 2 years which is not anywhere in the realm of shameful tanking. This season is the first year they tanked for the whole season.
This is my point. What other team aside from the Hinke era Sixers have ever devoted an entire season to tanking? That's what I mean by disgraceful. Ainge is not doing things with honor. IMO at least.
You think that's a good thing. I understand as you want them to get Flagg. I think it's shameful and Ainge deserves punishment.
