The tanking concept relies on being in the West. If the Jazz are in the East, they are a play in contender.I dont think the preseason results are indicative of anything, but the eyeball test tells me we may be a better team defensively than we were last season.
Our tanking concept sort of predicates us being a bad defensive team, as with Lauri, Sexton, Clarkson and Key there are enough flamethrowers to light up the scoreboard. Add Brice, Juzang and TH if he hits his 3 pointers at a high rate, and our offense likely wont be the thing that dooms us.
But with the amount of Lauri ISOs we have seen, if Will Hardy development lab is open all year it could come to rescue us from the jaws of victory.
The way we lose though is by bleeding points which also negates some of our best offensive games. Like last season didnt we score 149 or smth in one of our losses?The tanking concept relies on being in the West. If the Jazz are in the East, they are a play in contender.
I just think with Utah home court advantage it makes being very bad extremely hard.
Yeah, I'm not saying the Jazz will be good, but they are better than the bottom of the East and the home court advantage (altitude and teams resting stars) might make it hard to be worse than the 6th/7th best lottery odds.Every indication so far is that the Jazz will be committing to our younger players, from media interviews to preseason lineups and minutes so far. As long as that's the case, I'm okay with just seeing where the season takes us. There's still the Western conference effect where we really only have one other bad team in the West. So the really bad teams in the East will pick up some wins against each other, at least.
Problem in that is how many close games will he win for us if we hold on to him for that long?Yeah, I'm not saying the Jazz will be good, but they are better than the bottom of the East and the home court advantage (altitude and teams resting stars) might make it hard to be worse than the 6th/7th best lottery odds.
Hopefully Clarkson continues this higher IQ shot hunting he has shown in the pre-season. Seems to be chucking less bad shots. Hopefully he starts making some more 3s and he becomes an attractive trade deadline addition for a contender
Not about the wins, just how players are playing.Wins in the preseason don’t mean anything, and if they did, it’s not like we’re going to see the Jazz team we saw tonight for the whole year. I’m sure Hardy could scrap together a 35ish win team if the goal was to win as many games as possible. It’s not.

You know you're a troll and you lean in.... that's the worst dimension of your generally ****** online demeanor.You’re too excitable.
My thing with him is, if you're gonna play the role of acting like you're smarter than everybody else and putting everybody else down for it, the least you could do is get basic facts right so that people aren't constantly having to correct you.You know you're a troll and you lean in.... that's the worst dimension of your generally ****** online demeanor.
