I wish I had your optimism. I'm trying to predict who the Jazz will take at #6 or #7.

Rebounding is a real problem when Nurkic or Kessler aren't carrying that load.

Yeah, it depends on where we're drafting ultimately. Obi Toppin was considered fairly old entering the draft. Yaxel is 1.5 years older than that.

Yaxel's old for a draftee, but the Jazz have to take a hard look at him. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6j9tevspX9k

The Jazz have been playing him at the 3 for three years, whether it's next to John Collins or Kyle Filipowski.

The weak spot on the Jazz's young roster right now is PF. It's the Filipowski/Hendricks rotation. It's so bad that Kyle Anderson gives us a real boost when he plays. The Jazz can move Lauri up to the 4 if they want to, but he's really a guy you want on the perimeter. At the present moment the...

I'm watching the re-run on KJZZ. Filipowski's defense is almost non-existent. He's not even deterring Naji Marshall 8 feet from the basket. Also, Cody's first bucket was a legit nice floater.

Cody averaged 10 pts and 4 rebs in his last 5 games. Not amazing, but shows signs of a pulse. Also, he was 4/12 on 3P (33%).

I tuned in late, middle of the 3rd quarter. Game was over for all intents and purposes. This is Game 41, and the Jazz are on pace to finish with 28 wins.

I generally can agree with this, though realistically only 2 or 3 of these guards would go top 10. Outside of the top 4 guys, this appears to be an exceptional point-guard class. There aren't any centers that I'd put in the top 10, and several of the wings and forwards that came in as...

Jazz got what they wanted tonight.

Smart for the Jazz to get a timeout and get a quick score to keep a 2-for-1 clock situation.

Bulls are attacking Filipowski frequently.

Where have you been? He had 21 in the 1st quarter.
