Put it this way: Jazz sure are excited to bring Conley in as Rubio's replacement next year.
Of course you have to shoot. Teams are averaging 35 3pt attempts in the modern NBA. Its all about 3pt shooting and spacing. This is why neither Wolves nor the Jazz thought Rubio was worth keeping.
Horrible signing.
We just need to win more than 19 games this upcoming season and I'll consider this off season progress.
That would be one of the biggest improvements in nba history. 20 game improvements don't happen every year.
I think you misread that.

Ah, gotcha. It's one of those sentences that makes more sense when you read the words in order.

That Tomas Satoransky contract at 3 years $30 mil is making me more than a little jealous.

Jazz Beat writer is giving a pretty brutal take on Rubio on Gambo and Burns.
Shooting was so bad he knew they were going to get a different point guard after last year. Defenses just backed off and focused on Gobert.

Defenses will have to choose to focus on Ayton down low or Booker on the perimeter.

They made the playoffs with him. Wouldn’t making the playoffs make us happy at this point?
