Perhaps I'm placing too much hope in the young guys, but I think we've all seen glimpses of dominance from Kanter and Favors. They just need the PT and experience to learn how to bring it every night. I expect to see solid defense this year from those two, with some struggles on the offensive side. As for Hayward, I think he is very close to having an amazing season. It's maddening to see him struggle so much during the first part of the season and then play great after the all-star break. In a perfect world, Jazz would start off slow, playing close with the starters, but losing due to a poor bench. Then pick up a couple of high draft picks and a veteran or two at the deadline...enough to improve, but too late to finish above 5th or 6th worst record in the league. Maybe even follow the GS model, where their primary acquisition is injured and won't play until the 2014-15 season.
