Scott Skiles is resigning. Weird.

 

Well fuck ok. Now pulling for Vogel, Blatt, or mercy.

 

Vogel is the obvious choice for the Magic, given their roster.

 

I said that about brooks last year and they batted an eyelash before hiring skiles immediately. It's funny because they traded Tobias Harris for nothing for skiles and everyone knew skiles was the worst fit for this team immaginable. He did them a huge favor by not continuing, the magic are so dumb sometimes.

 

Mercy

 

Magic are dumb all the time. I give it three days before we hire George Karl.

 

Apparently skiles wasn't a Payton fan and the front office was, he didn't want to have to teach and develop kids. He legitimately was stoked about Brandon Jennings...

 

Yeesh

 

Weird, because everyone was saying how he's great at developing young players when they hired him.

 

everyone was probably the chums that skiles was tight with in the organization, the only reason he was really hired. His track record is horrible, he willing to get rid of Harris to become what he became in Orlando because he actually got minutes. Brandon Jennings developed his awful left handed habits on skiles team.

 

Go get Vogel, go get a KD or RW and no one fucking wake me when get Karl and Dwight instead.

 

Probably gonna go hard after Horford, Westbrook isn't a free agent till 2017 and no way in hell he would ever go there anyway.

 

Skiles seems like a crazy person

 

Big fan of those Jazz jerseys

 

love the pride jersey. reaction seems super polarized from what ive seen among jazz fans

 

Don't like the pride shorts but the rest is nice.

 

The Jazz's new Pride jersey would be one of the top 3 best uniforms in the league if not for the sleeves, imo

 

It reminds me of a soccer jersey, I feel like a lot of dads will be wearing it

 

Has a team ever traded out of the #1 overall pick? What does that haul look like?

 

Id say this has some examples but it's really subjective

NBA Trade Rumors: How Often Are No. 1 Picks Traded? Andrew Wiggins Could Join Rare Group

 

I'm kinda wanting the Celtics to get it, trade out of it to 5 and take Buddy. But there's a lot of "what ifs" needing to be answered.

 

Didn't the magic do this with Chris Webber back in the day to get Penny Hardaway and like 3 or 4 1st round picks? Also cabs traded Wiggins right after he was selected first.
