At this stage of the off-season, where do you think the Jazz finish in the West?

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Simple question: Where do you think the Jazz rank in the Western Conference now that the draft and the majority of free agency have concluded?

Expected Rotation
1- Clarkson / Horton-Tucker / Dunn
2- Agbaji / Sexton / George
3- Markkanen / Fontecchio / Sensabaugh
4- Collins / Hendricks / Samanic
5- Kessler / Olynyk / Collins

We bout to get Lillard tho

I'm not so sure. The latter half of that contract could be rough.

We think Simone gets the primary backup 3 mins? That can’t be, right?

Ochai probably slides down to the backup 3 (THT/Clarkson start) mostly, but Simone is probably ahead of Sensabaugh this year.

Yeah that’s my thinking as well. Ochai playing 30+ at the 2/3

Simone, Luka, Carey Jr and Dunn will be playing for their professional lives. Desperation might turn them into really good players.

I’m also not sure JC’s going to be the starting point guard.

Also same

Not sure who can then. Hendricks and Collins are more 4/5s, Sensabaugh isn't ready, and JTA is a free agent. Jazz like Ochai at the 2, but they could play him some at the 3.

 

[Bodhi]

I think we will see a lot of interchangeability and mixed lineups with Lauri, Collins, Hendricks and KO.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I’m also not sure JC’s going to be the starting point guard.

I think he's the lead guard if he isn't traded. Guys aren't going to want to stand around and wait for Sexton or THT to go to work.

 

[JazzJunkie]

I feel like we're gonna end up with Dame. Danny has something up his sleeve. Just feels like it.

 

[JazzJunkie]

As is though, I could see them getting a 5-6 with good health.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Clarkson/Agbaji Is a pretty solid backcourt pairing. I’d be interested in seeing how well that would work. Also, love the pairing of Sexton and THT together as well.

 

[Jaymz]

6-8 seed

 

[Bodhi]

I don’t know that I believe in Clarkson as a full time PG at all.

Love the dude and glad he’s back but that stretch we saw him facilitate is like the only 30-40 game stretch of his career where he has done that.

If he’s “Search Dribble Pound Into The Floor For 21 Seconds Clarkson”, that’s not at all what this team needs from him as a PG.

 

[Brsn]

I think we’re likely a play-in team but at the same time I could see us being the team that nobody wants to play against and we end up somewhere 3-6.

 

[Jingled]

I think he's the lead guard if he isn't traded. Guys aren't going to want to stand around and wait for Sexton or THT to go to work.

But they will be okay with standing around and waiting for Clarkson to go to work? He uses so many possessions just dribbling around looking for his shot while the other 4 guys just stand there.

 

[Fosto]

5-6 seed. The Jazz have a huge and athletic starting lineup,with some good roster depth. Both the offense and defense are looking solid. I expect Collins to be good. I expect the Jazz to be a top 10 rebounding team.
