Predict Our Starting Lineup

To start the season.

Dok
Markkanen
THT
Conley
Sexton

Regardless of midseason trades or not the starting lineup will be:

Vando
Markkanen
THT
Agbaji
Sexton

At the end of the day there will be defensive issues on both sides of the ball, Vando and Agbaji are the most likeliest candidates to progress and show out. Dok is limited and injury prone, KO is horrible defensively and a better fit off the bench.

Conley’s effectiveness really went down hill last year, and clearly slowing down, and won’t be able to hold off Agbaji all year

Yes. It will be an undersized backcourt, but so was Conley and Donovan.

I think they'll start Conley initially as a sign of respect since he's been there done that, but he'll really only play like 25 minutes a game then peter out to 18-20 minutes a game.

Sexton will come off the bench with increasing minutes and will lead the 2nd unit attack with JC.

Then at the trade deadline Conley's traded to a contender with an injured PG, and Sexton starts for us til the end of the year.

This is who I would like to see

Sexton
Agbaji
Fonticchio
Markkanen
Kessler

Just because I see those players as the future of the jazz

What will probably happen

Conley
Sexton
Vanderbilt
Markkanen
Olynyk
 
Looking at the roster there are 5 to 6 players that could be moved by the trade deadline

Clarkson - has the most value. Play off teams will be looking for a scoring punch off the bench. Is probably an expiring.

Beasley is an expiring but can be a huge scorer at time.

Conley is hard to trade because of his contract but like has been said if a competitor gets a PG injury Conley becomes much more valuable

Olynyk has some value as a stretch big.

Vanderbilt because of his defense and expiring contract.

Gay is not an awful contract just longer than teams want but he could be a valuable vet. (Fits perfect into the Celtics TE)

If this is the best line up they have to tank they are not going to be a sure fire bottom dweller. I do think this is an option at times, especially if they are NOT tanking. But the odds to win the lottery are so bad even when you do tank,it is really not assured they are fully invested in that. Overall don't like paying Sexton to continue to be an undersized 2 guard, unless the other guard is bigger and more proven as a playmaker already. I would pass Young Bull the keys and see what he can do immediately, if they are willing to tank or win depending on how that goes,and with one of Beasley or Agbaji at the 2 next to him or both at the 2 and 3 could be they fight for a play in and thos rebuild is a retool
 
Collin Sexton is absolutely starting, and it is a very unique opinion to think otherwise. Sexton is our marquee player, as in, "(Insert NBA Player) and the (Insert NBA team) visit Collin Sexton and the Utah Jazz" He will most likely get the most amount of minutes on the team as well.
 
In order... I feel strongest about the following guys starting:

-Sexton
-Lauri
-Mike
-Vando
-Beasley
-KO
-Simone
-Ochai - if they go the 3 and D route and start a guy that won't really touch the ball much.
 
What I'd like to see:

PG Sexton/Conley
SG Agbaji/Clarkson
SF Fontecchio/Beasley
PF Markkanen/Olynyk
C Vanderbilt/Kessler

What I expect (might be leaning towards pessimism):

PG Sexton/Conley
SG Beasley/Clarkson
SF Fontecchio/Agbaji
PF Markkanen/Vanderbilt
C Olynyk/Kessler

no chance 34 year old Mike Conley is a better option than Sexton , and outside of being a rookie I don't see any difference between Ochai and Beasley besides one is the future and one is one foot out.
