I see no path to the Jazz being anywhere close to playoff contenders for a very long time. This is beyond frustrating. You can't have a nepotism front office stacking up bad decisions AND be the least desirable destination in the league. I went to the very first Utah Jazz game in hx (loss to the Bucks, btw), pretty much listened or watched every single game through 2023. It is just super hard to root for a half *** organization anymore. This tanking stuff is just bad religion. RIP JS AND LHM.

nah i can easily see where we get another top 5 pick after this season and start to become more competitive pretty quickly Things change quickly in pro sports, the way we've been stuck in the mud the last couple years has sucked balls but i think there's a much clearer path now

Larry Miller was (and still is) so underappreciated (the Millers generally didn’t necessarily do the best job but decent after he stepped out). The fact that we went so far for so long not getting over the top, capped off with DL and QS’ colossus mismanagement of the last era, gave the pretext for a critical mass of the base to tolerate Ryan bringing in DA and completely ****ing this thing up beyond all belief.
 
Nurk also broke his leg right? Maybe he can help Hendricks out. It ended bad in PHX obviously, but Nurk was really respected in that POR locker room.

Hendricks: It's gonna take time, probably one full season.
The Tank: I don't think there are any other viable, rational path other than secure a top 2026 pick.

If we get into the playoffs with what we got, that would be a damn good outcome. It is not a likely outcome, but it would mean our young guys are great.

Reality though is that we are going to play a lot of young guys a lot of minutes which doesn't win a lot of basketball games AND we play in the Western Conference. We probably win more games than last year, but not many more.
 
When I search John Collins on twitter, all I see are Pistons fans wanting to trade for him. Is it possible? Maybe if he’s looped into the Shroeder sign and trade?

Collins on DET would be such a good move by them and where the east is now.

Makes no sense unless they can offload Harris in the deal or in another. Jazz wouldn't want Harris back. Is the upgrade from Harris to Collins worth it for a year rental?

He’d be great long term for them as well. But a jumbo lineup of Cade, Ausar, Harris, Collins and Duren isn’t that crazy?

I haven’t seen Harris play for awhile so maybe he’s too slow but Ausar helps a lot.

Would be outstanding. I'd be thrilled.
But it wouldn't be as good as to get Boozer, Dybantsa or Peterson.
20 wins max please nepo.
