I think the Jazz will have an opportunity to get out of the Svi business once Collier comes back. I'd start Walt in for Svi, then Collier plays the backup PG minutes. If there are injuries to any of the guards, Cody can take the time. It's more subtle than randomly inserting Cody.
We're gonna need Collier to start the way he did last season.

Indiana's tank is legit. They're playing Mac McClung and Tony Bradley.
Right now, Brice and Walt are below average defenders due to physical limitations. (Ace also misses rotations and close-outs, but that’s more processing than ability.) Put those two on the floor together with Nurkic, who can no longer guard space well, and the Jazz bleed points pretty fast.
They were -20 in 4 minutes last night, and the game was effectively over in the 1st quarter. The tank is in good hands.

Doesn't really have anything to do with physical limitations. Brice is bad on D because of mental imitations and Walt is just a rookie playing alongside a bunch of young players
Bradley played in the NBA Finals...
Mostly due to injuries to Thomas Bryant and Isaiah Jackson. Are you saying he's good now?
Walt having a 6'4" wingspan is a limitation, unfortunately. And Brice doesn't exactly move great laterally.
And what do they have now? Bradley isnt playing because they are trying to lose. They are playing him because he's the best they currently have.
Brice moves well enough if he had any kind of anticipation, awareness, or even just effort on defense.
