I'm looking at the Pacers' injury report. Half their guys our out for rest -- Mathurin, Nesmith, Nemhard. They're even resting TJ McConnell.

Cody's defensive rotations are spot-on. He has 2 steals early.

Who do you have as #6? Collier? Flip?

There's a world where Walker doesn't start. But it would take bringing in a significant player to push him out of the starting lineup.

Not sure this is 100% accurate, but okay. Technically, the Mike Conley/Nickeil Alexander-Walker deal yielded the LAL pick that went out. View: https://x.com/RTNBA/status/2018808715835830756

He's a steady vet, a ball mover and decision-maker who will fit in. He can play 15 mins or so for the Nuggets off the bench and keep things together while Jokic or Murray take a break.

Maybe Denver.

Windhorst says the Bulls may waive Conley and let him join a contender. Looks like Minny's just shedding Conley's contract.

First of all, the Jazz aren't giving up this year's FRP. Second of all, the players the Jazz gave up aren't consequential. Thirdly, the picks the Jazz gave up in '27 are probably both in the 20s. The only wildcard is the '31 PHX pick, which is a mystery box in 5 years. Memphis dumped JJJ's...

Lauri averages 28 ppg. Keyonte averages 24 ppg. JJJ averages 19 ppg. Why would JJJ think this is his team?

The Celtics gave up Al Horford when he wanted big money. Then they went back and picked him up, big contract and all, and won a championship. Jazz must be willing to pay JJJ's deal. Jazz are going to have Ace and hopefully another stud on rookie-scale for most of it.

Okay, but as a 3rd or 4th option (think Al Horford), he should be fine. Plus Will Hardy is the guy to get him unstuck, like he did with Lauri.

Jazz didn't know they'd be able to pick up JJJ on more or less a salary-dump trade tho.

Shooting percentages are sub-par except for FT%. This is the kind of dynamic player off the dribble that would work though. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggQOzfQbuEQ

Jazz have play finishers everywhere. Now they need the guy who is unstoppable off the bounce.
