If John Collins is going to continue playing as well as he has, why not just keep him a while? He's playing like a bonafide starter, and his shooting is decent enough not to cause too many spacing problems.
 
Holy crabcake, Batman! I think Lauri is going to suck us into his vortex of oof.

Got blocked 3-4 times and clanked all his three pointers. ,

At the moment, Lauri doesn't dare to go really hard inside. He either feels fresh to do it or is completely useless unless referees call fouls on him.

Haven't seen in a while him even try dunk against contact. I get it now,bc two days ago he had sensations in his back. But what if it becomes more reoccurring thing? His inside presence is only, and I can't underline this enough, about being physically strong. He doesn't have the footwork, handles or fakes to score with flair like say, Kelly Olynyk.

Lauri's got a bum back. That is probably hindering him.
 
I want to like Collier: he is a real PG and a likeable dude. But with him in the 4th the Jazz offense was a stinky, smoldering mess. And when he was Keyonte subbed for him the Jazz players immediately started getting good shots. Keyonte is not a real PG but he is so much better than Collier at running the team now.

Until Collier is an actual threat to make his shot he will be massively hindered as a playmaker- teams will sag and clog up the passing lanes. His main/only priority is working on making open shots.
