He's created against the clock a number of times in Vegas. I think you're thinking more of the SLC games, which he wasn't great in. I think he's legit been one of the best players in the league in Vegas. His ballhandling and self creation has been a big strength in Vegas.

The Nuggets were desperate to avoid the second apron. The Jazz were simply trying to do right by Kris Dunn. The two situations are apples and oranges

Because I reported it three minutes after Adrian, so in the world of journalism we credit who reported the deal first.

You haven't seen the handles? That's interesting. Cody has been creating off the dribble in Vegas, pretty much at will. And more impressively, he's been doing it at like 170 pounds, which means it's 100 percent skill

Good question. I'll ask around

Living at our regular human being salaries, I agree. Living at salary pro athletes live by makes it more of a conversation

Big difference getting a bag at 27 as opposed to getting a bag at 28. Means you can get another bag one year earlier

Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you

Cody is very good off the dribble. That's one of his strengths as a player. I think you are more referring to his lack of physical strength. That's why he's having issues gaining separation. But his actual handles? He absolutely has that and wiggle in his game. It's one of the things that make...

funny. I mentioned this to someone from the Jazz last night and he said, well, Oklahoma City's summer league team last year won the Western Conference, lol

Agreed. Such a great value draft

I liked him a lot as well. You don't find guys that size that can create like he can.

If the Jazz were drafting anywhere from about 5 to 10, Williams would have been the first choice at any one of those picks

Zanik said the way the board was falling, the models told them to stay put. The Jazz had a couple of scenarios that I was aware of that would have packaged 29 and 32 to move up. They have a specific guy in mind for 32 tomorrow. If he is off the board, there is a chance they move down

He's a shooting guard

great pick

You didn't hurt my feelings. But whatever you said to me on twitter that compelled me to block you, you've certainly doubled down, here

yep. They have a 2-3 year window, and if they get to the second apron, it's going to get really difficult

The 2029 and 2031 picks could easily be lottery picks. It's 2024. The new CBA isn't going to allow a team to be that kind of good for 5-7 years. And now that the Knicks have exhausted a bunch of their asset base, it's going to be hard to pivot when things go sour. 2027, 2029, 2031....those...

yes, exactly. I don't think he's Mark Price. He's nowhere near as good as Price was off the dribble. I think Castle and Rishacher are both guys who are going to be good NBA players even at their floor, which is why I like them so much for the Jazz. They won't have to hit a ceiling to be good and...
