That still feels too soon.

Everyone is reading too much into summer league performance. What happens in summer league stays in summer league. We know what Collier can do. Can't stress about how he's played in these games. The one takeaway we have from SLC Summer League is that we're lucky Bailey fell to us. Dude is...

Dude needs to be hitting the treadmill with one of those oxygen tanks.

I tried to make a rotation by minutes. Only so much time on the court available. Below totals to 252 minutes, so I'm 12 over. Maybe Sensabaugh and Baily get a little less time. Injuries typically make this process a little easier. Plus an 11 man rotation is probably too many guys anyways...

Is there a roster in the NBA less prepared to win in 25-26 than us?

So excited we are actually starting the re-build. I can stomach losing with young and inexperienced players that provide hope. Last year was honestly a disgrace to the game. I remember Philadelphia getting a lot of flack for tanking several years ago. They tanked by just not signing veteran...

How long does it take to get acclimated to the SLC elevation? Honestly think Bailey was gassed the entire second half.

Hahaha. Good catch. Cut me some slack, he's been on the team a week. Lol.

We don't want to trade him. It's just hard to envision the Jazz being a championship contender while he's still in his prime. He doesn't fit our timeline.

Lol. I'm sure if you were a billionaire you would have no issue with a $200 million luxury tax bill like the Suns had last year.

The issue for me is that if he's off-ball, he's probably going to be guarding a wing as opposed to a PG. We're automatically at a size/length disadvantage. Do we want a 6'3" off-ball gunner as a foundational piece?

One of Key, Carter, or Collier needs to turn into a starting caliber PG. If Collier can learn how to make 36% (league average) of his threes on 4-5 attempts per game, I think he's an above average starting PG. That might be asking too much. Aesthetically Carter just looks like a modern day NBA...

Collins is going to end up being bought out.

Definitely fair. I haven't done a lot of evaluation on ast%. Which of the following has the greatest likelihood of happening: Keyonte learns how to play PG. WCJ learns how to play PG. Collier learns how to shoot.

Having watched a considerable amount of highlights of this guy, and most of his NCAA tournament run this year, I don't see why he doesn't project as a point guard in the NBA. I keep seeing "combo guard" in a lot of scouting reports. I think most of that comes from the scouting reports earlier in...
