#1-"The kids take the league by storm"

The Jazz are the surprise team of the year. Hayward shows he can be a leader and is talked about as an All-Star. Trey Burke is in the running for the rookie of year and our two big guys Favors and Kanter clearly show they were ready to start. Both averaging around double double numbers. Alec Burks takes a big leap forward and shows he can consistently score the ball. The Jazz are a fringe playoff team somewhere between 6-9.

#2-We are still a few years away.

Its tank city. Clearly the Jazz are one of the worst teams in the league. Hayward looks better but struggles to be the first option scorer, he shows he is best as a 2nd or 3rd option player. Trey Burke has glimpses of greatness but he clearly wasn't ready to start. Favors and Kanter are good but they are still a few years away from being really good. Favors still struggles with fouling. Alec Burks doesn't progress much and its possible his time in Utah is coming to an end. The Jazz still show they have a bright future but they are still a few year away from being good. The Jazz are at the bottom of the league but the Jazz are basically guaranteed a top 3 pick.


These are not the only two options of course but they seem to be two extreme possibilities on how the team will play next year. Best and worst case scenario......depending on how you are looking at it. :)
 
I never want my team to do bad. I feel like losing is just a by product of adjusting. So getting a top pick wouldn't be that bad if our teach showed great improvement by the end of the season (kind of like the wizards this past season, they weren't good, but at the end they were doing great and they got the number 3 pick). I won't complain though if we do get a top pick. I think more people would like to see us winning though ;).
 
I would prefer significant leaps for our core players and that Golden State is decimated by injuries/chemistry and so we get the best of both worlds. Our players rising up and a great draft pick.
 
Can I say 1 1/2? I see it as a combination of the two. Not everything will go right and not everything will go wrong (so to speak).

But I chose #1 because I am a positive guy.
 
The Jazz rape so hard it pushes the Warriors out of the playoffs, their pick moves into top 3. That is scenario 1.5
 
A little bit of 1, lots of 2. I think we will surprise some teams and come away with some nice wins that we probably shouldn't have, to be followed by long stretches of crappy but exciting play with a young enthusiastic team that doesn't have the chops yet to play with the big boys.
 
2.


I'd rather be bad this next season and get a franchise player for the next decade.
In order for #1 to happen one of our young will have shown to either be a franchise player or close to it. If one of them doesn't show to be a franchise player then a few of them have shown to be really, really good. Which would almost be better. Either way I'd prefer 1. But believe it will be somewhere in the middle, as others have said.
