Does this have to be repeated daily? The Jazz were well under the MINIMUM SALARY point! They HAD to find $20+ mill salary to put on the roster and for that purpose, without giving up draft capital, Collins was about perfect. He plays hard and in terms of attitude, he's as good as you could have, dealing with this situation. He's also expiring and not going to damage the tank too badly.
I think Cooper Flagg is overrated and 2025 draft is overrated. Cooper can't shoot. Tanking doesn't work.
Collin is the absolute man! Started the bama basketball run we have been on in the last half decade. Really resurrected the program. Can he find his role on a winning team? Perhaps not this year on the tanking Jazz. But I hope so in the future. Ainge will trade him IMO…
Collin is 6'3 with a 6'6 wingspan, George is 6'4 with a 6'8 wingspan. How is that small? I don't understand why they're lumped in with Mitchell and Conley as diminutive for their position.
Gotta keep Sexton as part of the long term plan. He will do anything to win, I love the Dogg!
Sexton needs to be on a winning franchise.
How you guys always saying things like you don’t know what you means how can you say garland is better than Saxon Colin is more aggressive than garland he scored machine than him.
If Sexton starts no one gets the ball in offence. How does it develop the youngsters like Hendrics? Kessler has to find his self confidence again in order to help Lauri near the rim. Hope to see Patty Mills more often during the season.
I think Colin just needs a team that believes in him…One of the best young guards in the league and he has that dawg in him
I think Sexton is the newest version of Clarkson…. he'll be our off the bench instant offense….
You sound like your reading your whole thing like you have everything word per word written down try reading over you notes a little bit before or ask lock for some tips it's kind of throws me of listening
No way he can get better he was by far and away the best player in the nba last year wasn’t even close don’t believe me ask Collin he will tell u
Sexton has always been better than Garland. Y’all never watched both play in the Cavs clearly. Y’all don’t know Garlands game clearly if you think he’s better. Garland can’t close games, disappears in big moments, inconsistent. Sexton was the best player for Cavs , garland never showed up. Sexton was consistent night to night , and way more efficient.
On another note: George should not be a lock to start he was not good. I don’t understand yall
Sexton has proven to be aPG the past year . He was the best one on the team . It was CLEAR .
Saying his best role is a 6th man when it’s clear he’s better as a starter and was always a starter before he came r this team is weird. He doesn’t need to prove he’s a starter he’s been consistent and peeve to be a consistent effecient scorer . Idk what 6th man is doing that? Jordan clarkson is a 6 man. You can’t read off these elite numbers then come to that conclusion. It doesn’t matter if the team is good or not . If the player is good he’s gonna be good in every situation
Play the youngsters! Join the Nets and Wiz in the race to the bottom at the jump! It's going to happen because the top of the lottery has 4 to 5 guys that are coveted big time!
Colin sexton is our Westbrook he needs to grow as a pg/playmaker an when we need him to go offensive let him rock an this guy is better than lock
