    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    No one is arguing minny is not going to be good or that they will not be better than the Jazz, so this is a straw man argument.

    I agree that ant sets a decent floor but I’m more concerned about their ceiling. Not sure they are a title team without peak/ healthy KAT as a big who can stretch the floor.

    It’s a good take, but how many teams are successful long term with $90 million/ year tied up in “centers” It forces their hand

    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    How many teams in the west are going into full panic mode if they don't escape the first round? Minny, Pelicans, Mavs, Clippers, Suns? IF OKC or Denver crap out they probably keep things together. The nuggets because they just got a chip and OKC because of their trajectory. Kings...

    This is why I thought Naz signing was a mistake, as good as he is. Too much $ tied up in bigs. Unless they are willing to pay a zillion in tax, either Naz or KAT must go. Unless their strategy was to sign Naz to a tradeable asset and then parlay him into picks and/or guards, which could turn...

    Jazz sign Darius Bazley to a 3 year NG

    Comparable rookie years to Keyonte's. (I thought I had linked just the PER 36 min section of each player) Just look at the rookie year Per 36 min

    And incremental improvements help team trajectory even if that player is not on the championship team. if Simone had not improved we could not have parlayed him into a pick. The pick might be an asset we use to get a rotation guy or use to get a yotstion guy. Or not. It is a stochastic process

    You could say that but clearly Jokic improved due to fitness while you cannot say the same for fatter Shaq.
