Why did we let him leave?

No idea, I just remember finding out that the Jazz weren't gonna resign him when Fanzz started releasing Trey's jersey with a #3 (DMC's number) instead of #33. Such a messed up way to find you aren't gonna be resigned. They should have locked him up longterm though. Dude is just a beast defensively and has really improved his offensive game.

My absolute favorite play of the entire year! After getting completely posterized, he comes back and makes an absolutely posterizing block. Game went downhill for the Wolves immediately after that with a 9-2 run. I love the kids mean streak he has in him.

Love this article by Monson.

Exum with 12 assist, most this year by a Jazz member! He showed a lot of potential getting into the paint and being a distributor tonight, very encouraging.

Whats amazing is, John Stockton averaged 10.5 assists per game for his entire 19 year career.

I think they need to just stay where they are at unless we can somehow get a superstar. We do have money in which we can sign someone pretty decent and keep all our assets, so trading for one really doesn't make a lot of sense unless we can get a Durant(which we wont) or something like that. I think we are fine next year with a healthy Burks, a better Rudy, a better Exum, another year under our belt and a couple mediocre FA signings to help us shoot and get a little more depth at C.

I don't know though... Will be another interesting offseason to say the least.

I dont think we will ever get a superstar to sign in Utah. The only way that happens is if the Jazz are willing to pay well above market value, and we are far too conservative for that.

If this was hockey, we'd have an easy time getting free agents. SLC would remind most players of home. But in the NBA...not so much.

Should have traded up for Jabari since he's Mormon.

Nah, ill take my chances with Exum.

I just wish that one star would sign here. Itd be nice.

Got f**ked by the refs. Worst call ive seen all season.

I don't know if it was called, but the ref looked at Hood and pointed and said he kicked his foot. Piss poor officiating, especially after they called this on us a couple times earlier.

I have no idea how 3 guys could be that blind. The refs are just worthless and they really need to make plays like that reviewable.

Rodney Hood could grow into something special. Exum is coming along really well the last week. Gobert can be one of the best centers in the league. This teams future is really really exciting.
