He's also a rookie playing spot minutes with a small sample size

I'm not some anti stats guy, but when it comes to rookies, I prefer the eye test. I like the potential I see.

If he comes it’s not because of DL. It’s because of DM

Yes, but DL is the money man. Gotta pull some strings.

I have 0 faith in anyone thought drafting Ton Bradley and Grayson Allen were

RdF3

1/18/19 9:26pm

He’s made a couple of pretty lucky (&good) trades but he’s overrated

I always forget the level of expertise that graces CB.

They were several obvious miscues that I have posts proving how stupid I

When he took over the coach was Ty Corbin.

HingleMcCringleberry

1/18/19 9:40pm

I don’t not like him. I’m just not putting 100% faith in him yet

RdF3

1/18/19 9:42pm

Yeah, the trade for Korver was insignificant too.

cougaman

1/18/19 10:06pm

That was a painfully obvious move that needed to be made much sooner

RdF3

1/18/19 10:12pm

Yeah, so no credit for him for making it happen?

cougaman

1/18/19 10:18pm

Deserves credit but also deserves blame for not addressing shooting in

thebruce

1/19/19 12:19am

So is he to blame that Ingles, Mitchell, Rubio, Crowder all shot worse at the

cougaman

1/19/19 5:21am

Partially. Spacing isn't great when you start 3 non shooters.

thebruce

1/19/19 7:17am

And I think he knew that, but wanted to see what they had after last season's

cougaman

1/19/19 7:34am

Whatever his thinking was it wasn't the right plan imo

thebruce

1/19/19 7:51am

Yeah, but you would have probably traded Gobert, so...

cougaman

1/19/19 8:18am

Probably. And neither of us know how it would have turned out.

thebruce

1/19/19 8:34am

We don't, and this season is turning out OK so far.

cougaman

1/19/19 8:42am

Yes. Which I figured it would even when the jazz were getting torched early in

thebruce

1/19/19 8:54am

I’d like to hear the other painfully obvious things that only you know and

HingleMcCringleberry

1/18/19 10:33pm

He’s hit on 2 draft picks, missed on so many. I think he’s good but he’s not

DieHarder

1/18/19 9:42pm

And he’s not underrated on CB I get attacked when I say anything negative

DieHarder

1/18/19 9:43pm

How does he compare to the average?

Belboz

1/18/19 9:49pm

Not bad but not as good as some on here would think

DieHarder

1/18/19 9:50pm

How many top 3 picks has he had? Top 5? Top 7?

cougaman

1/18/19 10:05pm

Came in 2nd for GM of the year last season

Hypnotoad

1/18/19 10:11pm

Being critical of Lindsay. SMH. He's been great. The trade for Crowder helped

cougaman

1/18/19 10:18pm

2 of the biggest draft steals of all time? Lol

thebruce

1/19/19 12:21am

Yeah, a little hyperbole, but they are 2 of the biggest stakes of the last

cougaman

1/19/19 5:19am

2 great picks let's leave it at that.

thebruce

1/19/19 7:19am

Here's a snippet of obvious blunders by Dennis Lindsey that were easily seen

RdF3

1/19/19 8:46am

What about the same guy who traded up for both

HingleMcCringleberry

1/18/19 9:29pm

You're blasting him for two late first round picks?

CougarBlue08

1/18/19 9:31pm

Who would you have drafted instead?

Bleedblue84

I’ll post the old posts tomorrow. Some were FO

Here you go:

I like Allen. I think he's going to be a nice player.

Hypnotoad

1/18/19 10:10pm

He’s so horrible in every statistical category and is 23 years old

RdF3

1/18/19 10:12pm

He’s a rookie

Hypnotoad

1/18/19 10:14pm

I agree about the eye test and to me, he looks pretty bad.

RdF3

1/19/19 10:49am

DodgerMike is that influential?

TNT

1/18/19 9:32pm

Could be even more influential if he liked Journey

LaVellIfIKnow

What a commie

TNT

1/18/19 9:49pm

Not sure he is the top priority for the Jazz.
