With filipowski still middraft projection, similar to last season, curious if this suggests maybe the ‘24 draft is being undervalued. Or is it just the ceiling of filipowski is known and this draft will just be about drafting youth with potential? Curious what thoughts are on this from people...

Just to jump back in on filipowski. Was a fan of his game in ‘23 and was hoping we would call his name last year with our 2nd pick until he re-declared to duke. On a lot of the early 23 mock drafts he was largely sitting in the 12-20 range. If indeed the 24 draft is weaker than last year…I’d...

I think the kings need another season to run it back when they have 2 key role pieces back next year. I feel Murray got exposed though. Their defense looks a lot like the Jazz did of years past but without Gobert in the middle to dissuade

It was surprising to me how rough they looked against the Pels. Sometimes in sports there is just that one team you just can’t beat, but they’re issues appear deeper than just that. They need a rim protector or a more athletic PF to play with DS sorely I think…. and a better bench. Just not...

Wait, TH might actually be awesome??? . Hope the positive trends continue! Solid numbers

Tank next year hard and not hope but if fate allows…. a key injury or 2 for a couple other teams in the league….wouldn’t be so terrible for us

I wouldn’t be surprised if next season is a full year long tank. Lot of long leashes right now for young players. Interested to see what Kessler looks like next year with another offseason. Hopefully strength training. What I can’t say though is if Klingan from UConn is there at pick 8…not...

Vroom vroom

JC x 2 could be cut tonight and if replaced by 2 dudes that just have effort and play hard on D and not sure we’d miss a beat. The rebounding effort is so bad, not even mentioning just staying on your man. Losing fontechhio and keeping clarkson about killed my internal jazz interest for this...

I haven’t been awe struck by his play so far either tbh. I like his length, and he has shown some offensive board work, otherwise pretty meh so far. I’m ok being labeled on his bus or whatever lingo is used for that though lol. We drafted off potential knowing he needs to refine skills. He...

You can bookmark it all you want and if he has an amazing nba career I’d say kudos to him. There is no way of knowing if he is out of the nba in 3 season or a perennial all star. The only factual thing out there is he was slotted top 5 on some draft boards, overwhelming top 10 and dropped to...

There is a reason cam Whitmore fell as far as he did. None of us are privy to all of his team interviews. There is no way of knowing. What if he is out of the nba in 3 years. Is he still worth taking over a solid character dude like TH who could develop his game and be a solid player for a...

Getting keyonte at 16 was brilliant drafting while getting a raw prospect that would have gone within the next pick or 2 had we passed on TH

Just seeing his first meaningful minutes and everyone knows he is a raw prospect. Expecting him to be at peak contribution right now is too soon imo. Needs a season or even 2 to grow. Jazz decision to let him work things out here instead of g league

Patrick Williams averaged almost 30 min per game over a 71 game appearances his rookie year. Taylor Hendricks has only had like 7 appearances in limited minutes. Pumping the brakes would be a good idea. He is 20 years old and seeing first meaningful minutes. This is a conversation for after...
