Jazz Offseason Plan

I think Sexton is a good buy opportunity for a more functional team. He’s a ball hog but he’s talented and I like how competitive he is. I’d like to see him with good teammates.

Sexton/Mitchell would be far and away the worst defensive backcourt in the NBA.

Sexton is talented, but the fit with Mitchell has high potential to be horrid. Sexton probably has the highest (negative) differential in his perceived defensive ability and his actual defensive ability. Outside of that, he is just too similar to Mitchell with even worse habits.

All of this. I really like him but not for us…. Didn’t mention that caveat in my Sexton post.

I think they’d also bring out the worst in each other on offense. Ball Hogging is really contagious. Guys don’t pass if they don’t think it’s coming back.

I'd much rather have Garland, but obviously they are trying to trade Sexton for a reason.

We have the greatest defensive player of all-time to back them up so we can make it happen.

I could also be wrong but I don’t feel like Conley was that great of a defender this year in the playoffs. Maybe there is some advance metrics that support him but I feel like he had issues staying in front of guys against Memphis.

But would any of you like the idea of Love replacing Bojan and Favors?

Financially, that's what it comes down to.

We couldn’t defender the perimeter against the Clippers but if nobody can guard Sexton/Mitchell does it really matter?

Conley was easily our 2nd most impactful perimeter defender this year, which is saying very little obviously, but he was good.

Yes, it obviously matters.

True but really not a huge feat. Crazy that we have such shoddy perimeter defenders.
