I Think We Are Going Tank City Next Year

It's impossible for the Jazz to tank.

The young core 4 is good enough to sneak into the playoffs even with Corbin's incompetent-*** running the team... and any vets we sign and play would at least be good enough to limp into 9th-10th in the West (equalling out to the 13th or 14th pick in the draft with virtually a >1% chance of getting in the top 3). Therefore, unless the injury bug bites us hard, this team is incapable of a true tank job.

We have no bench!!!
 
Have you seen next years draft?

Why wouldn't we want to tank?

Compete for a 10th-8th seed so we can pick in the teens/be swept by the Thunder or draft a franchise player who will lead this team to championship contention for the next decade?

Seems like a no brainer to me.

It is.
 
Lol, so what if we get Parker or Wiggins, and Corbin is still the coach?

They'd be riding the coattails of Gordon Hayward for the next 3 years and living off of 10-25 minutes per game! BAHA!

You could always try to trade Hayward and whatever combination to a **** team, that you think is going to be **** next year for there lottery (maybe), and then tank and possibly wind up with Wigs/Parker and Marcus Smart. Hey now!

This must be the post that drove Zulu to the thread he created yesterday.

I have a lot more faith than I used to that we will finally tank. And now is obviously the time to do it. If we add a top 3 pick in 2014 to the Core 4, we could seriously be a contender within a few seasons.

I would say even a top 5 pick does the same thing.

Also, it is time to showcase our players. Maybe Burks can bring back an additional pick in the first round next year.
 
Like I asked, if we drafted Jabari or Wiggins, regardless, Corbin would keep them as benchwarmers for 3-4 years anyways wouldn't he?
