Cody Williams Hype and Appreciation Thread

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I honestly think the Jazz are having Cody lift and work on his body during the season which has contributed to some of slowness and lethargy. On the other hand, having him work on his game BEFORE he gets the body he is going to need is kind of a waste as well. Confident Cody looks pretty smooth and kind of glides. Unconfident Cody looks like a plastic bag in the wind.

I'm really interested in seeing what a "season off" for Hendricks to exclusively work on his body looks like on the floor.

Everyone lifts during the season in the NBA now

Whoever plays the best.

I think after this season, or maybe even during, we will see rookie contract players moved.

Guys also don’t play 48 minutes a game. And some will take DNP’s here and there as part of a tank. Not worried about it.

There's lifting. And then there's LIFTING.

My dude is a beast. I don't think I have ever seen a jazz player change their body that much that fast. Impressive.
Honorable mention to Brice new body

Dude looks like he fast forwarded 5 years. He will be a lot harder to move out of the post than he was as a Rookie.

We’ll see with Cody. Half of me is convinced this thread is 100 pages by the end of next season. Half of me thinks it will be replaced by the “Can the Cody Williams experiment please end?” thread.

I feel like Kanter and Gobert both had similar transformations back in the day. Hayward’s wasn’t as fast, but his bulking up was impressive then too.

Damn, that's crazy. I wonder what and how much he's been eating.

He said "comfortability". Boler-approved.

I wonder why the Jazz chose for him to bulk up and play PF in that defensive - 3point shooting role?

They must have thought it too hard to guide him down the scoring Durant/Tatum type role.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

I get it Cody is 6-8 or 9 the thought of him is tantalizing and people fell in love with him after last year‘s summer late because he played well in Vegas for me once shame on you for me twice shame on me I see people falling right back into the same mistake as last year fact is the way he got buckets in summer league will not translate to the NBA He still can’t dribble. He’s still weak as hell even if he got stronger and he’s a turnover waiting to happen. Oh, and he still can’t dribble.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

He still has only shot 28% from 3

Comfortability + optionality = NBA GM!

 

[FalseFlagg K]

I was really happy with what I saw from Cody. But SL is stupid and doesn't matter so until I see it in real games I will continue to have little to no hope for Cody.

I just remind myself he was picked for what he might become in 3-4 years. Keeping expectations at nothing until a couple years down the track.

Why are you being so miserable?

Cody will most likely not be good, but we are Jazz fans (being a fan is irrational), so just hope that he can be a useful player one day.

Are you a Jazz fan?

Why are you rooting against our young players?

Remember how long Hayward took to develop? Remember the Dwill incident?
