I'm fine with where Gobert and favors are, but Hayward should be higher. There isn't 30 better then him

IDK, we will see who is ranked above him.

So far I think Chandler and Drummond are the two biggest question marks for me being ranked over Gobert and Favors. Everyone else I can see an argument for so far.

Also, how high are they going to rank DeAndre ****ing Jordan? He isn't better than Gobert, and they do the same thing just Jordan is better at finishing around the rim, but Gobert is better at everything else. If Jordan is top 20 I'm going to lose my ****. I have no idea how he is ranked over any of our 3. He should be somewhere in the 40-50 range.

The even dumber thing about Drummond is that he was ranked #37 last year. He had a less efficient year this year and they ranked him higher? I mean, his stats are crazy with the rebounds, but he can't hit a damn FT. Maybe he will breakout this year with Monroe gone and him playing next to Illyasova all year, idk.
 
We can always have a thing or two to quibble about with such a list(I would have liked to see Hayward higher, I can't fathom how Drummond is above Favors when Favors is better than him in both offense and defense, etc.), but in general I think they've done a good job and have recognized our players improvement from last year. I have no doubt if we make the playoffs those players will be even higher next year.
 
I found this part about Hayward interesting,

"However, coach Quin Snyder’s first season saw Utah improve from 25th to 15th in offensive efficiency. Hayward benefited from higher-quality looks, improved flow, more catch-and-shoot opportunities, and a new pick-and-roll finisher in Rudy Gobert. "

Hayward as the number 1 option with Ty Corbin was not good for him, looks like Snyder is aware of what guys should be doing more.
 
I think that Gobert should be top 10.

I'm as much of a Gobert homer as anyone, but no way has he earned top 10 yet.

Lebron, Davis, Gasol (2), Curry, Harden, Aldridge, Cousins, Westbrook, Paul, Griffin, Duncan, Thompson, Irving, Kawhi, Butler.

Not quite there yet.

Predict he'll be 40-50 range.

I'd be curious how we were in offensive efficiency post all star break. Or the last 65 games or so even after our bad start.
 
Oof. I wonder if his tenure in the front office of the Kings franchise will "vindicate" his abilities.
Sacramento is just like the Jazz' FO. They don't want to pay him to go elsewhere. They probably have him doing some menial task. Of course it really doesn't matter whether he has any input or not; whatever that team does will be the wrong choice.

I'm just waiting for the first Rondo/Cousins fight.
