Utah Jazz vs. San Antonio Spurs 7/7/2015 @7pm Mountain Time *Official SL Game Thread*

With Exum out, I'm hoping Cotton or Hanlan step up and prove they should make this roster. I don't want anyone on the team by default.

By the way, where's Wes Saunders, man. I want to see him play.

Yeah. Saunders should be getting some burn. I'm worried that Hanlan isn't athletic enough for the NBA. Think they should have traded up to get Pat Connaughton or Guillermo Hernangomez instead of waiting to see who was left at #42. Also wish the Jazz would have just given a partially guaranteed contract to Cliff Alexander. They still need athletes to round out the bench.

Looking forward to Lyles, Neto and Pleiss in Las Vegas (hopefully).
 
Give Cooley a spot, he's like a block of concrete and has a really good motor to his game.
 
Hood's had a few nice drives all the way to the rim in the 3rd qtr. He has a nice ability to score in different ways and from different angles. It makes him pretty shifty and tough for most 2s to guard.

I think Cooley had a role if we decide to keep him. Not saying he should get 20 minutes a game, but I could see him coming in and providing solid minutes for an end of the bench guy.
 
We have a top 5 SF, top 5 PF, and top 5 C on our roster, and we have Exum and Hood are you kidding me

Yeah, Can you imagine if Favors was available as a FA this year. No way he doesn't get max. Rudy is probably the top FA available in 2 years. On paper, Jazz have a really good "big 3". Just need the other starters to be more consistent. With Exum not being a rookie, Hood and Burks healthy, they should be pretty good.

I'll bet you that Exum, Burks and Hood are all considered studs in two years as well. The core is rock freaking solid. Just need to play together and gain experience. Hopefully Lyles ends up in that conversation as well.

You're not serious, right?
I understand being excited but Hayward, Favors and Gobert are not top 5 at the positions.....yet

Going by PER, Hayward was 5th, Favors 6th, and Gobert 6th. But PER severely undervalues defense, which I think puts Gobert and Favors into the top 5.
