I can't believe how young the team is

A lot is riding on Exum and Gobert becoming special for their positions obviously, but there's quality across the roster. I actually have high hopes for Neto being a factor too. He's doing okay for a rookie.

Gobert isn't special for his position? He's one of the best centers in the NBA.

Jazz could be top 3 in the west. Lets see if Durant stays in OKC, and lets see if the Spurs' backcourt is good enough in 3 years to keep them at a contending level. A lot will change in 3 years. Jazz still need to hold on to Hayward in FA. Minnesota could be special in 3 years too.

Would you rather have the Minnesota roster or ours?

We are more loaded across the board. But they have TWO potential superstars. We still don't have that guy.

Can someone show me realistic contracts for all of these players for the 2018-2019 that has them here in Utah?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think Burks will still be under his current contract at that time

It all depends on Exum. The Jazz really need him to pan out in a big way if they're going to contend in the future. Otherwise, I'd rather have Towns and Wiggins. The Jazz don't look like they'll have a top 15 player in the league. So unless they're the new 2004 Detroit Pistons, they're going to have a hard time getting to the top. If Gobert can develop some offense, that will help a lot.

I like the Jazz's GM and coaching staff better than Minnesota's. Minny lost a lot when they lost Flip Saunders. But it doesn't matter as much if they keep lucking into #1 picks. They have time to fix their coaching situation.

Defensively Gobert is a top center. Offensively, he needs to develop something. A couple decent moves and a bit more strength and he could have an Alonzo Mourning-like impact.
 
The Jazz is so young that if they were to start slowly replacing the older players with young players (after 1-2 seasons of grooming), they can kinda keep the average player age in stasis for many years to come.. If I was in charge the team would be even younger, been saying that for some time.

If you think in terms of "opening a playoff window" this situation is totally ideal. Their preparing to keep that window open for quite some time.

I was outside today, I can't believe how blue the sky is.

I hope this team gives the FO enough of a reason to dig deep and pay to keep it together. I think there's a chance that if they have some reasonable success over this year and next that they could really start to become something special.

The sky is the layer of atmosphere under which we live, It is made up of several colorless gases. The gasses interact with the light coming from the sun to give the impression of color. It isn't really blue, so I understand why you have a hard time believing it... :)

They have 1 potential super-star and a carbon copy of Demar Derozan.

Lmao.

He's what, 20? You sound bitter.

No, I just think shooting is very important in today's game and if you absolutely can't do it, it can hold you back from being a superstar. I see him being a very very good player, but I just don't see him being top 10.

Also, wtf do I have to be bitter about with regards to Wiggins? It's not like the Jazz had a shot at drafting him.
