The Washboard Edition - The Downbeat - #949

The All-Star reserves were announced just now and predictably, there are no Jazz players on the roster.

A) How much do you care?

B) Do you feel any Jazz players were snubbed? If so, who?

C) If the Jazz were to have representation during All-Star Saturday, who would be the most likely to make the trip? Jeremy Evans for the dunk contest? Randy Foye for the 3-point shooting contest? Enes Kanter with a harem courtside during either of these events? Enes in the frosh/soph game? Alex Borques in the frosh/soph game? (Ty: No.)

The trade deadline is a ways away, but trade talk and trade proposals are running rampant around the Interwebz.

A) The trade of which Jazzman would result in you jumping for joy and pumping your fist in the air like there's no tomorrow?

B) The trade of which Jazzman would result in you screaming "WTF" and shaking your fist at the sky like there's no tomorrow?

C) Do either of these scenarios end up with you choking on the inversion?

D) Was that a correct usage of "inversion"?

Fine, fine. I'll give you a few more minutes.

If the name Mark McKown is not familiar to you, just know that he helped train one Karl Malone.
