Milei, Orban and Infantino 😂

Worst part is, these 3 at least deliver some comical element looking at some of the other gestalts lurking there.
Yeah, i really don't know what's real anymore sometimes.

Here's what i'd ask of math people to ease tanking in the NBA; obv there is no "fix".

Calculation period: 3-4 years, an elaborate weighting of 3 factors:

- League position in said period
- Lottery balls/RNG
- Small boni/mali if success>calculated estimate in prior year(s)

Another name we should not forget for next season is Gabriele Procida, now with Real Madrid; we still got his draft rights.

Serbian news outlets are reporting that Isaac Bonga, Germany's Eurobasket Finals MVP, has recieved several offers from NBA teams. Has a buyout clause which he apparently cannot activate *right now*, so buyout negotiations with Partizan Belgrad would be needed.

I need to learn more about Fleming and the fit in our backcourt; Peterson would be a dream obviously. Ace can get min. 24+ mins each night easily in a more featured role that is not the starting 5. Finish games, too. Just don't force him into somethign he is not/which would be a waste of his talent.

Could be wrong, but i think it's the Jazz and the Kings who have not a single participant in any of the contests at All Star weekend.

The lottery is such a fickle beast these days, bit of bad luck & you're just not getting anywhere for years.
And then you watch the Mavs having their incapacity carry them to another top 3 pick this year probably, i'm so convinced this will happen & they'll end up with a generational foundation. 😆

I'm so sick of rooting for these outcomes lol. Rest of the season will be so schizo. Glad it's over soon, like, most of my most magical sport memories are from my childhood, imagine all the Jazz kids growing up with this bs.
Team will have all the markings of a loveable, nasty underdog team.

On another note, i'm having a hard time imagining this as a longterm core aswell due to cap restraints.

Dosunmu next to KG would have been nice, but only for next season.

Get in there and buy low on Dillingham?

It got better without Xitter, but sometimes the utter madness that is the state of Utah comes sipping trough still. 😄

(German FA liveticker was like "have an eye on the Jazz in regards to Morant smh lol)

You know who would actually work well in that role if healthy... :D
Some valid concerns: i think Ace will get starter minutes next season, but not necessarily as a starter, but in a very much featured role still.
You gotta put a very specific player type next to Keyonte to play winning basketball, defensively minded, but equally with some connector skills to...

I think we all deserve this for watching Kyle Filipowski play defense 1 1/2 seasons.
February 3, 2026 at 8:26 PM
Nah, eff the math... again, Utah is so prone to getting squeezed real good from all types of active NBA entities, this type of calliber with team control until 29-30 becoming available for us, it is just rare. And Grizzlies def knew lol.
FA would have done nothing for us either in terms of personal.
February 3, 2026 at 8:21 PM
Probably should not expect the 2023 dpoy version, it's been known JJJ has been slipping a bit in general.
February 3, 2026 at 8:08 PM
Now imagine what a turnaround this would be if we get a top 3 pick this year and not... you know, my boy Hannes ff.
February 3, 2026 at 8:02 PM
That's too funny, i was looking up JJJ's contract length earlier today. Because Utah. I really like the guy. The Jazz don't have such an opportunity very often. Hendricks hurts a bit even if being ass this season, but we don't know about longterm medical prognosis. Disliked WCJ fromd ay 1, sorry.

Largest deficit faced before scoring a point this season...

1. Utah @ NYK, 12/5 - *Trailed 23-0
2. Utah @ DEN, 12/22 - Trailed 19-0
3. Utah @ LAC, 1/1 - Trailed 16-0

* Record for the 30 seasons of play-by-play data.

That's one of the craziest notes I've ever seen.

Was about to start a rant re: muisc fomo due to the loss of xitter, curators retracting to patreon & the dystopian entinties we consume music on digitally, but i kinda started hating my own ass half way trough.
Anyways, here is Wonderwall.
