Charlotte, N.C. • Jazz general manager Dennis Lindsey says he acquired Kyle Korver for one simple reason: to put Joe Ingles in his place.
“I’ve been greatly offended by Joe Ingles' claim to be the greatest shooter on the planet. As a proud American, that he was comparing himself to Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Kyle Korver, I was offended,” Lindsey said. “I wanted to make sure that he realizes not only is he not the best shooter in the world, with his leveraged-arm Aussie slingshot — like he’s trying to shoot balloons in the Australian circus — he’s no longer even the best shooter on the Utah Jazz.
