It’s the trade off we face for (hopefully) being able to make a wide open shot.


Bojan has 27-ft range. That's enough for a stretch-forward.


I mean defensive range. He's ok on the ball, but he does not cover ground or space on defense.


ahh, okay

The concerning part is the jazz were playing there rotation guys these last few games so it isn't like we were resting everybody. The lone bright spot is that Mitchell has looked great offensively. The type of great that I think 26+ points a game is a real possibility.

Jazz D will be fine as long as we make shots. When teams run they will score.

Anyone interested in looking at Ivan Rabb? Memphis waived him today.

Back in the fall of 2015, when Rudy looked completely lost and was getting played off the floor in a preseason game by Steven Adams, when he was so terrible I questioned what we had seen at the end of the 2015 season when the Jazz took the league by storm....and then the season started and Rudy was Rudy (but even better), I promised myself that I would never fall for the pres season hype or doom and gloom. Nothing we've seen over the past 2 weeks will mean anything in a week. Just ball it up and throw it in the trash.
