I mean, we have done it before. He's like 22. He would have been fine.

They're different players. The argument against Wallace is that he's not dynamic enough to be your lead on-ball guard. But as a 3D guy, he's a nice player--e.g., Avery Bradley, DeAnthony Melton, etc.
Yeah we did it in the game at Toronto, which basically saved that game.
The Knicks really screwed up not drafting him.
Hardy just did what has got him wins. Every lineup/player had several opportunities to put the Jazz over the top and they couldn't sustain runs.
Keyonte had some bad turnovers early that made it hard for those lineups to have success. You live by a rookie sometimes you going to die by a rookie.
Walker also missed a key FT that would have changed the complexion of the final possession due to the Jazz being down 3 instead of 4.
Thunder had a 89 offensive rating against the Jazz’s zone tonight. That’s actually insane.
Thanks man. Needed some validation that Hendricks and Wallace are different players. It's so hard to tell sometimes.
Imagine getting both Chet and Jalen Williams in the same draft. That's the kind of draft the Jazz need to pull off.

Sexton has become somethin I did not expect
He actually didn't. Eliminating Collins/Olynyk lineups is a huge part of what got him wins - he went back to it to start the 4th which dug the Jazz into a huge hole that they didn't have the time to climb out of.
But like I said before, I think he did that only as part of an emergency reshuffling of lineups to give Kessler all of the closing minutes.
Crazy part is Sexton scored 31 points and easily should have had double-digit assists. I can think of 3 possessions in the 3rd quarter alone where Collins missed two wide open corner threes and Simone missed one. All created from Sexton driving and dishing.
