You don't know that yet. So you are saying that if they had lost and gotten the fourth seed they would certainly be picking before the Celtics. I know the 5th seed has moved up a few times and might even be the slot that has done it the most. I am not sure on this but I recall reading it somewhere.

Draft means nothing to this team.
We have players with 3-4 years experience(Favors, Hayward, Burks, Kanter) and we suck.
None of the are stars. All are good players, not great.
We need a veteran star ,problem is no one wants in Utah.
Makes Hayward decision tough.
I still say he is worth 10, will be offered 12, we will not match.
Then the curse of Hayward begins as he finally hits a buzzer shot for once to knock us out of the playoffs

The win cost the Jazz over 10% chance at landing in the top 3
@chadfordinsider
Oh boy, that season ending Jazz win cost them some ping-pong balls. Moved them from 119 combos to 103. Now tied with Celtics.

Again, just a reminder:
Orlando: Afflalo 6 minutes, Oladipo 17.
Boston: SAT Rondo, Sullinger, Humprhies, and Bayless.
Utah: Played Burke, Burks, Hayward, and Favors 40 minutes.

These guys really want to win? I didn't have this sensation against the Lakers and neither in the last 25 games!
The dilemma is...have we tanked the season implicitly or we are just that poor?
I don't see a single reason to try to win so hard this game now that we had secured the 4th!

Unless the amount of ping pong balls have changed, their will be a coin toss. 119+88 is 207 which when divided by 2, is 103.5. So I coin toss will be held and one team will get 104 and the other 103. If neither team moves up then who ever won the coin toss will be drafting 4th.

If someone had told you that the jazz were going to go 6-24 (or what ever it is) after the all-star break, would you have believed them? Or that the Jazz would be in a great position to draft high? I'm mostly saying that we are lucky to be in any position that gives us a good chance at moving up.

I think some players are in on the tank - others are not.
Burke, Hayward and Jefferson are definitely not in on the tank.
On the other hand, at the end of regulation Favors made a shot a lot harder than he had to and the Burk push-off was just bizarre, he never pulls up for a mid range shot in that situation (which I believe was his intention before the offensive foul was called)
