    Yup, and they're a 4 win team.

    Our vets are absolute trash.

    Is this the type of game that puts Billups on the hot seat?

    Don't think Cronin, Kolde or Vulcan will want to admit it's a stupid roster so might be easier for them to blame the coach.

    They need to give refunds. This is atrocious.

    Walker was someone who I was in favor of cutting back in training camp because I thought he was a waste of a roster spot.

    I don't think much differently about him today.

    Walker is still 5x better as a center than Ayton.

    Too bad this doesn't count as three losses.

    The Jazz are coming off a 27 point loss WITH Markanan, losing 5 in a row and losing 9 of their last 10.

    Their season high is a win 135-126 in Chicago early in the season.... Maybe they get in that range again.

    It's like the Blazers all get together and decide to be terrible certain games.

    You know what’s funny…. Or maybe not…… I have MULTIPLE examples and stories I could share that blows this opinion out of the water…..just not worth my time. Just know that this kid is as dedicated to getting better than almost any player I’ve been around on this team.

    You think other teams are impressed by their play of extra minutes and shots?

    This isn't 1997 where guys can put up empty points and be in demand - other NBA teams all have staff that analyze player efficiency and productivity relative to their contract.
