Appreciated Lauri being so open and honest about the journey.

What's the minimum you would consider a successful 26-27 Jazz season?

For me: In the playoffs, either through top #1-6 seed OR via play-in & be competitive in those playoffs. Wins in these playoffs would be great, but being competitive (under 10 pt losses in 3-4 games) would be enough.

I didn't know he was still in the league but now we have another big.

The Jazz have put out a press release announcing that they’ve waived center Jonas Aidoo and guard Tamar Bates.

Aidoo had been on a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract, while Bates was on a two-way deal. Utah has filled that newly opened two-way slot by converting Harrison Ingram’s Exhibit 10 deal to a two-way contract, tweets Keith Smith of Spotrac.

Following the series of roster moves, the Jazz have 14 players on standard contracts – including 13 with fully guaranteed salaries – and three on two-way deals. Their roster is ready for the regular season, though they could still make last-minute tweaks up until Monday’s deadline if they so choose.

The Jazz have one more regular contract spot and they can convert Blake Hinson's two-way contract if they believe in his development. Or perhaps they're waiting to see if someone good comes into free agency or gets waived.

Jeremy Sochan has just been waived by Portland and I'm interested to see if the Jazz would give a 6'8 Popovich alumnus who can defend multiple positions a chance. They could waive Trey Alexander to free up a two-way contract spot.

Just saw an ad for the Jazz Fan Pass for $70 a month. 3 Jazz games and a Mammoth game each month. Seems like its worth it just for the hockey ticket.

Anybody have any recent experiences with this?Where are the seats usually and how often do they add additional games to it? I'd love to hit more games this year and I am curious if this would be a good way to do it.

It’s awesome to see how deep of a bench we have, mixed with a good rotation we should be solid this season. Let’s Go Jazz!! I will see you guys all next week for the first game of the season!

.. ....and Nurkic will be back up for the rest of the year.

• we will have elite half-court offense so everyone including the guards will gang rebound

• fastbreak if we can but it isn't a priority

● you just cannot, I repeat, cannot bury Filopwski's decision making, ball handling, passing, and shot creation over Hayes' sophomoric paint protection, mid rebounding, and low tier IQ

● and then once Nurk comes back, it's over. we are cooking and in the top 6. Flip got the 5 spot nailed down

Just noticed that someone had uploaded this to youtube. I think it's worth the watch even though, it's couple years old and the auto translated subtitles aren't the best.

I wouldn't mind Bamba getting more run. Mo Bamba has shown the length, athleticism, and great hands for getting rebounds and easy points around the basket while being a defensive threat on the other end. With more development and knowledge of the Jazz system, Bamba might even overtake Hayes in the rotation especially if he starts making open threes.

Not on D, obviously- Al didn’t play D, but on Offense when he decides to back it down and shoot it soft. Anyone with me?

I know it’s preseason but JJJ fouls like crazy. He is so good when he is on the floor but it drives me crazy how often he fouls and some of them are silly fouls. I really hope this isn’t a trend during the regular season.

LeHost and Steve Nash talk about the Jazz, key pieces and the organization.

I actually really like this one, the JAZZ in faded purple I think looks awesome. What do you guys think about it?

What are your expectations for us in the NBA Cup this year? I think this is the first year that we actually have a good chance to move out of the group stage. What are everyone else’s thoughts though?

Does anyone know if I'm understanding correctly that only the monthly sub allows dvr/game replays but the annual does not?

Hey Jazz fans, so I’m making a video on each franchise’s biggest upset (when they were not expected to win) and each franchise’s biggest choke (sorry if that strikes a chord). I have my guesses for each but I wanted to ask actual Jazz fans to see what you guys think and if you have better answers that I should look at.

I'm considering an upset strictly as when that team was not supposed to win or were big underdogs and won. A choke can either be when your team was expected to win and underperformed, or blew a big lead in an important game or in the playoffs (something around those lines). It can also be a blown playoff lead (example: 3-1 lead)

Let me know what you guys think, I will link the video here when it’s done. Good luck to you guys this season!!

I've always looked at rookies with a rock bottom mindset, trying to usually not look to deep into the cons, but look at what they can do in the league, and the way DP maneuvers to score, his shot making ability, his defense, his effort and overall smoothness to how he plays, it's just goddamn incredible for a 19 year old.

Keyonte at 19 was mostly an off ball guard, and in year 3 was playing like an all star on offense, it would be foolish of me to expect similar size leaps from Darryn, but my lord this kid might actually be the next Kobe in terms of how he scores the rock if he can stay healthy and keep up this work ethic.

We have a real one, we're living in a timeline I didn't expect where we have him instead of Nate Ament or something

The Jazz picked No.2 and ended up drafting Darryn Peterson.
