What's new

Aaron Gordon is entering the draft!

I actually really like that lineup too. Depending on who their coach is, that has the potential to develop into a really strong lineup.
 
Burke
Hayward
Gordon
Kanter
Favors

Burks
Neto
Gobert
Evans
GSW pick (Payne? Early? Stauskas?)

...that could be pretty sick. I love the length/athleticism of that starting 5.

We better be very good defensively then, because we will still struggle to score.
 
Yea it does put a lot of pressure on Hayward and Kanter.

The more I think about it the more i believe we need Wiggins. He has the best chance of becoming a two way player and an elite level talent. Ultimately, We need a guy who can flat out score the basketball in the 4th quarter because that has been something we've had a hard time doing lately. I am a little afraid when I think Jabari because of his deficiencies.
 
Favors' post defense is really solid. He's a like a one-man doubleteam. He's bulked up though, which has hurt his speed and explosiveness.

If we have A. Gordon, it will be enogu runners to demand an increase in pace. Plus better defense = more posessions w/ quick outlet passes, which means shine time for Gordon, Burks, Evans, A. Gordon, and any big that runs with them.

This slow pace HAS got to stop next year. We have athletic wings who thrive in the open court. For them to see the open court, they need to not play the half court game. If we have players who can play regular and transition D. (A. Gordon), we will get out on the break a lot, and our wings will score at ease.

I doubt Hayward struggles next year in a faster pace.

Okay, Okay. I get where you are coming from.

Who do you advocate as the coach who will implement such changes? George Karl perhaps?
 
It would be nice to know where the Jazz are drafting to end some of the speculation. I have been saying all year that GS isn't a given to make the playoffs and they still aren't even though their schedule is easy down the stretch. Memphis blew a huge chance to move into a tie. I would LOVE it if the Jazz were able to get two lottery picks this year. Dallas has to beat GS when they play.

The problem with have Gordon is he can't shoot. The Jazz are already an average shooting team. I would love it if the Jazz got Wiggins. Yea I know who wouldn't but he is my guy now. Parker can improve his body. Most guys do if they are motivated to be good. All I've heard about Parker is that he has a great attitude.
