I would still say they are cry babies and should just relax

Season is far from over bud I've remained consistent that the Jazz are going to start really tanking once they do or do not get Lauri the all-star and that will be enough. Maybe I'm off a bit and it's more like comfortably in 6th, but I still think the plan is to tank

Conference play hasnt even started.,,

IMO he has undoubtedly gotten better defensively. A lot better? Maybe not, but simply just not complaining as much has improved his defensive ability and he does seem to "lock in" for the clutch possessions at times.

Norman Powell did it

Hopefully these wins just emboldened the FO to pull guys vs the bad teams.

I'm not saying we shouldn't at all. Just the way I'm choosing to accept the season. Whatever happens I'm excited for next year.

There is something there deep beneath the surface. He has NBA athleticism and size, and can move his feet defensively. He has enough of that to be a threat in transition. He just has to learn how to shoot and/or be more confident/forceful in his drives. He has the potential to be our best...

You add Walker, a high level free agent, and improvement from Ace and you can be a top 4 seed

I'm aware. I'm just saying I don't think this team being great hinges entirely on the 2026 NBA draft.

Nurk's impact is so up and down. Sometimes he is legitimately a tank commander. Then some games all his weird floaters, hooks, and 3s decide to fall.

Lauri no doubt

Ethically speaking the Jazz don't deserve a top 4 pick. We have two stars (Lauri/Key), a potentially elite defensive center who may also be a shooter (Kessler), a potential star in Ace, and max cap-space next season. Not to mention decent rookie contract pieces who may or may not develop...

He went from the most flappable player to the most unflappable

Yeah, wouldn't be shocked if we re-sign Nurkic if he's willing to play for something close to the vet minimum.
