I'm just here to follow unhinged sports takes.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@BensHoops The guard/guard stuff above the break this year has been a disaster all year.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@Sivixio_22 Bro AJ is gonna be real nice and Darryn is gonna be real nice. Both our teams suck and that's the bigger issue. Those two will be fine lol

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@BensHoops And if someone like Ace really pops it makes a player with a huge salary like Lauri a lot easier to move for other pieces.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@BensHoops In some small way, long term, it might be a gift. They will now learn what they have in all the bench players and fringe rotation guys. When guys are healthy later and next year they will know who deserves minutes, who deserves the bench, and who shouldn't be on the team.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@Tjonesonthenba Yes 1000% At a vastly lower skill set and example than those guys, this is my bro and me to a T. I'm 5'10 he is 6'2. My hands are average, his are huge. His vert and first step are better. We both agree my hoops IQ and skill is higher. I went further with the career. Levels!!

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@statmuse Let's revisit this in the next five years, when the top five are his age now. Hell, compare them to him at 29 at that time. I bet it's a very different picture.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@Tjonesonthenba You've seen this in a few series covering your former team 😅

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@AntiRacistJazz Homie joined this dreadful platform October 2026. Bots need to die

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@JeffBiesinger Right? Let's look at this thing at the end of the year and go from there 😅

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@shre98 Many thoughts, but their current trajectory is 17 wins. Not 22. Not contention. 17. I'm sure they string some stuff together, but even 30 wins will be really disappointing. Also... Welcome to Utah, glad to have you!

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@CJRealHoops2 This is cool and all, but when are you going to say the controversial part?

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@McCadeP8 Because we are dropping 100 mil per year plus 3 firsts on the position Boozer plays. Looks bad. (I agree completely with what you're saying. Play and develop Peterson or eat crow.)

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@andyblarsen Also, I'll never pay for this app for more characters, but this wasn't directed at all at you, @andyblarsen 😅

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@andyblarsen Which... Is fine? But take him out for three minutes, rip in to him, and throw him back in. There are finite opportunities over a season to develop in REAL opportunities of close games and OT. This season was supposed to be about mattering and devolpment.. Opportunity lost.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@shoplerNZ @shre98 Right? It's weird. I'll give him a whole half season before I start to call for heads.. But what are we doing here? I'll be thrilled if I proved wrong

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@Jazzyflyfish @andyblarsen @CHoltSports @shre98 Seriously. Good chance for some up and coming reporters to ask some uncomfortable questions.

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@NBA Takes a whole business day for blood to get back up to his head

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@ArtTakesNote Beat your man, then pass the rock. That's his whole job. The iso ball, no pass, I'm him possessions are gonna kill me

[Matt Holmes @Mholmsie]

@LarsenPort1 It's frustrating. I've heard multiple in the coaching staff and in the radio world explain it away with a bunch of random advanced statistics.. But it is clearly a big issue.
