ESPN Player Rankings - Jazz Players

[Fishsticks]

Hood will surprise people, if not this year than in a year or two. The second coming of Chris Mullin!

 

[QuinSnydersHair]

I've had season tickets longer than all the players other than Novak, Booker, and Evans have been alive.

That's ****ing interesting man, that's ****ing interesting.

Except they couldn't because you don't have NBA level sperm.

How do you know so much about my sperm...oh yeah. I must have blocked that from my memory.

Nothing notable about those dudes at all.

 

[Qman]

So 30 teams 15 roster spots.

330 divided by 30 is 11. So Novak and Evans are considered 11th men or in other words roster fillers.

 

[//r00t 4 Jazz]

I've been older than every single NBA player for a few years now, so nothing new for me.

Something I'm not used to? Realizing the Jazz have a player (only one for now) younger than my son.

Ha that's the first thing I noticed as well. Except my oldest is just 2mo younger than Dante so I barely fit under that category.

The secret to staying young must be to wait until later in life to have kids. I don't have any children who are older than any NBA players... and it will be several years until I do.

Nope it's not like a Jazz fan would easily recognize any of those names.

Pretty sure we are all basketball nerds and recognize most NBA names.

 

[Hotdog]

I can recognize probably 98% of players names in the NBA plus a bunch that are on the cusp, in the D league, etc..

I don't think that's really a big deal. I don't get crazy nerdy about it. Just playing fantasy basketball will force you to learn the names.

Yes, exactly.
Both are role players. For Utah, I see a spot for Novak; every team needs a 3-pt shooter. Evans is a tweener. Love the guy, but he really isn't that valuable in terms of what he brings to the Jazz.

As for Hood, I think he's going to surprise the league. Great shooter, seems to have the necessary speed to be an adequate defender. IMO, he should have been valued in the 14-18 range. If not a starter in 2 years, then a very solid rotation player, especially in the offensive system Quin is installing.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Rudy Gobert just showed up in the rankings at #311, a few spots below Ekpe Udoh and Chris Copeland.

 

[Stoked]

Updated the OP with 3 more players.

 

[addictionary]

112 spots?

Damn!

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

SI is doing their top 100 players. Favors was 79, Hayward was 58 (I think on those two). I doubt we see any other players on that list.

This will be another long year...maybe two.

This is a bit ironic given that Kanter and Burks are our best players.

Lol if you actually think that.

Now, that there is some funny stuff.

bad evaluation methinks.
Gobert is a way better player than Ekpe Udoh.
Udoh is not even a player actually.
He is just a tall guy with ridiculous athleticism.
