ParticipantWhat these players are asking for is not spare change. Let’s take a billionaire, for example. A billionaire only has 1000 million. I know that sounds like a lot, but AJ was 7 mill. That is almost 1% of a billionaires net worth. If it was a one time thing, it might be ok, but to have to make donations like that every year, as those players bomb, transfer, or make the jump to the pros will start to make major dents in their fortunes. An owner of a team like the Jazz is actually making money off their investment in players or at least breaking even. These NIL donations do not produce income for the donors, therefore emptying the pot and never giving back, except in terms of entertainment value.

ParticipantI’m done with the NBA!!
The probability of the Mavs, Spurs, and Sixers all beating the odds like this on the same night is 0.000681%
This is according to AI after I inputted the odds into Gemini:
“It’s important to remember that while individual events with low probabilities happen all the time, a particularly striking combination of low-probability events seem unusual.
Based on this simplified calculation.
This very low probability is why people might feel the outcome was rigged.”This is the true reason people are tuning away from the NBA. It has turned into the WWWF.

ParticipantStreamliners doesn’t role off the tongue, so what about the Salt Lake Speedsters, Salt Lake Speed, or Utah Racers.

ParticipantI know the person who has been making donations to BYU. It is not Ryan Smith. That’s all I can say.

ParticipantThe concern I have is that since the departure of Karl Malone and John Stockton, on the rare instance where the Jazz have developed a rookie into a star, as soon as those stars make an All Star team, they typically fall in love with themselves and want out of Utah. It generally takes at least as long as a rookie contract to develop a rookie into a star. What good does it do to draft and develop rookies into stars if they just leave after their rookie contract? This is why I struggle to get excited about the NBA anymore and why college sports is becoming increasingly harder to digest.

ParticipantAI created the logos. Ignore the color scheme and focus on the name. What do you all think of the name? I honestly don’t like the names Mammoths, HC, or Outlaws right now. I feel like they lack a true unique connection with Utah. There’s a possibility I could get this name idea in front of Ryan Smith with a connection I have.
Here is another one with the name Speedsters:
