This conversation comes up from time to time, and I saw one suggestion once that I really liked. (Can’t remember where it was, or who said it - but it stuck out as interesting to me.) Basically, the concept was that each team would bet against another team’s record for the following season. The...

I agree. But when 2030 rolls around, it’s going to be so much fun rooting against them.

Also, assuming the Jazz bring over Prodica next year (which I think is likely) there’s NO way they would want to roster 4 more rookies next season.

#1 - I like that this trade gives me another team to root against. . . I love owning the picks of other teams. Once they stop tanking and actually start competing, they’ll still have years and years worth of other teams picks. #2 - assuming the Cavs keep Mitchell and are solid for the next 3...

Pick swaps. Pick swaps. Pick swaps. I’m to the point where I honestly could care less if the Jazz were to trade Sexton, Collins and Clarkson all for a different swap of the Cavs pick and then just take the best one and give the other two guys away - as long as the long-term salary coming back...

Jazz should be hyper focused on pick swaps with the next two Cleveland picks. Even if it’s potentially for minimal gain, it’s better than having to trade up during the draft.

How long can they do that before they both get disgruntled though? Inner strife is going to wreck that team - no matter how talented the pieces are.

More than anything else, I hated the halfway in-halfway out tank of ‘22. We might not have gotten Wembanyama, but definitely should’ve traded more vets earlier - even for weak assets coming back instead of trading Conley to the Wolves to facilitate the Lakers trade later. By the time that deal...

I think Rudy was more likely to stick than Donovan. Jazz got a great haul out of both trades. Just have to hope for some bad luck for both organizations moving forward. Lauri is a star. Sexton was a + acquisition and Ochai probably should’ve been given more burn before they traded him. We’ll...

I just want to point out that even if the Cavs go on to keep the best record in the NBA (which I highly doubt happens) the Jazz still would’ve been in the position to draft Flip with that pick last year.

I like John Collins just fine, but I sure as hell don’t want him to be the reason Jazz win meaningless games this season. I’m down with the young guys playing well enough to win, but don’t lean on guys like Collins/Clarkson to get it done. Collins, Clarkson, Sexton and Eubanks are a solid...

This is basically what happened in 2022 and it set the tank back two full years. If the 6 guys with most minutes are Lauri, Keyonte, Kessler, Sexton, Hendricks and Williams. . . then it won’t be terrible for them to win a few games. If Clarkson, Collins, Svi and Eubanks are all getting big...

Personally, I’d like to see what it looks like if the Jazz play Keyonte, Williams, Hendricks, Lauri and Kessler a ton of minutes together. Unless and until they move him, my vote is for Sexton to start (love the guy) but that lineup I listed is the 5 man lineup I’m most excited to see this year.

It’s hard to come back from those injuries. . . but at his age. . .

This. Kessler is a solid guy for regular season success. It’s a long season and I think he has skills that fit very well into the rotation. I was hoping for more improvement by this point, but that might not be in the cards. There’s really no need to sell low on him right now. Build from the top...

I like the Jazz music for the highlights. Nice touch, and they should do it more often.

Love Sexton - would love to see him stay this year. Sexton/Collier Keyonte/Clarkson Williams/Hendricks Markkanen/Filipowski Kessler/Collins Sprinkle some minutes in there for Mills, Juzang, Sensabaugh, Svi and Eubanks Make trades (JCx2, Svi, Eubanks) as available. I’d enjoy this team...

Why the heck not? I’m in.

This is mostly my position as well. I want to see that toughness and grit that he shows on defense on the offensive side of the ball. There’s a solid role for him, but he needs to play within his ability to actually fill it. TBH - depending on what the Jazz plans are for center long term, I...
