Well, Haliburton is fun to watch, so I guess we have this to look forward to.

[FJS]

I would pack Collins, Sexton, THT and Clarkson for halliburton and fillers.

This is the difference between a good pg and what we have.

Kessler, Olynik, Markkanen, George & Halliburton win us more games than this group. Yes our bench would be abismal, but still, it's better to have players with limited games who know what they have to do, than a few talented players without any clue.

I love Haliburton but there's no world where they trade him any time soon.

[Inigo Montoya]

Yeah, we're not getting Haliburton.

I'm ready to trade them for left over pizza.

I'm ready to trade them with some picks for a star.

Which star? I didn't realize one was available.

In all seriousness, if we are playing those guys and holding onto them indefinitely in the hopes some star becomes available and has the Jazz on their trade demand list, instead of playing the young talent we have, I'm going to- .....well nothing. There is nothing I can do except complain about it. Still, terrible GMing though if that's the plan. Just awful.

Then take solace in that it's not indefinitely. THT is expiring, Olynyk is expiring, Sexton, Clarkson (after this season) are very movable, and Collins has so far been the second best player on the Jazz so he's reclaiming some of the value he lost in Atlanta. This season might end up sucking but there will be a lot of changes made when it's over, if not before, I'm willing to bet.

Ochai and George starting. Interesting.

[Inigo Montoya]

Already were down 0-7. We're gonna miss Kessler in this one. Maybe Yurt7 will surprise.

[bkohler]

Looking better so far

[Inigo Montoya]

Collins is a good player. Despite the less than ideal fit he's making the most of it with plain talent.

[Inigo Montoya]

Don't like the Clarkson 1 vs 5 offense.

[Inigo Montoya]

Bad pass bt THT. Should have been an easy 2 for Markkanen.

[bkohler]

Don't like the Clarkson 1 vs 5 offense.

This is an evergreen post.

[AGE1207]

Just gave up 38 points in the 2nd quarter

[Inigo Montoya]

I'm almost glad my feed crashed do often that I didn't get to see the whole thing.

[jazzkid]

Can't expect to win with 20+ turnovers each game. That coupled with no defense we will be lucky to win 20 games.
