What’s the one semi-realistic move jazz fans want to see to bolster the team for a championship run this year?

Add a power forward that can rebound and switch on defense? Dante Exum+2nd(s) for Marvin Williams would be the call I'd make.

Ingles+Exum+stuff for Blake Griffin at the deadline if DET are reeling and decide to start over.

Both Dante and Mitchell have videos on their instagram stories from Australia. Seems like Dante is showing Mitchell good times in Wombat land. They are at some indoor pool. Seems like Dante is doing some sort of rehabbing/in-water exercises.

Let's hope he doesn't get injured by an errant wave.

Like an errant TJ Warren flying through the air without purpose and using a hustling Exum as a landing pad...….bad Exum for not being aware

What can I say, the kid has some rotten luck. Not all of his injuries could have been avoided (like the TJ Warren one) but the bottom line is that he gets injured sooooo much. I'm sure it's very frustrating for him, but it's also very frustrating for fans, and I say that as one of the more ardent Exum supporters on this board.

Exum looks like he’s going to get hurt every drive because he’s going 100 mph and doesn’t know how to fall.

To me he looks off balance all the time. Every single time he goes to the rim it feels like he will meet the floor in a brutal fall one way or another. Even the slightest bumps send him flying into the stands like he's a feather being blown by the wind.

Yup. When you watch guys like Exum and Burks play, it’s easy to see how they get injured so often. They take so many hard, awkward falls that make you wonder how they didn’t get hurt.

Seems like the courts of all NBA teams have been leaked. You can see them here:

I like all three as well. I also like the Grizzlies with the grizzly pawing the ball, pretty cool graphic! Unfortunately, I won't get to see that court as they black out all the games where I live.

Anyone tried You Tube TV with League Pass? Thinking about going that route if reviews are decent.

I recently switched to HuluTV but even before that I was doing League Pass...Is there a difference between YoutubeTV with leaguepass than just league pass alone?

Not sure about that. I just got rid of Xfinity as it was eating us up with eh monthly payments for something we didn't really ever use as a family. That is where I had League Pass. is ti possible to get it otherwise? Is there an internet streaming option?

I stream via the NBA website, but check what games you'd be blacked out for. In Alabama I'm in the media market for the Hawks, Pelicans, and Hornets, so there are a lot of games I can't watch until after they are over.

Thanks, I'll check that out. I'm in TN and the Hawks and Grizzlies black out market. After growing up in the Jazz market it seems strange to me that teams black out games for areas over 3 hours away. Doesn't seem like a good way to build a fan base if locals can't watch the games. Not everyone can go, there aren't enough seats in the arenas for it! :lol:

I'm a die hard Jazz fan, bought season tickets the first year they moved into the Delta Center but had to move to MN for a job and have followed them since passionately moving to several states in the process. Have tried to also become a fan of local teams, but without the ability to watch as Nashville isn't close enough to go to games consistently, I haven't become one even when terrific Jazz players go there (Milsap, Carroll, etc.). I don't get it.
