Absolutely. And I think him coaching the all star game is only going to help.

The 8 minute clip I saw didn't get that far...but truth was there, sadly.

He was talking about the NBA, not Utah specifically.

doesn't DWill have a home here? In Park City?

He never said he doesn't like it here, just that it was the perception of others

D-Will's team never signed anyone close to the caliber of Bogdanović. The Jazz

I'd pick Houston and Portland over SLC. but probably not OKC or Detroit.

Houston? You prefer a swamp to the mountains?

Houston is not a swamp lol.

I mean, Houston was a literal swamp. And it's hotter than hades.

If you don't think it is a factor you are naive

I didn't say it wasn't a factor. I just don't think it's that big of a factor

Lol. You realize what you just described is Utah having to pay more

playing for the Jazz doesn't mean living in Utah.

So are you going to spread this around to all of your close NBA friends?

Because NFL stars don't have leverage and NBA stars do.
