Added to Calendar: 12-27-25

I like the Spurs team, and of course they were missing Fox, but I still feel like the ultimate league breaker would be Wemby with elite shooters around him
 
I look forward to the national podcast reaction Monday.

Feel like it's been a while since we had a standout performance against a top tier contender team. I know we beat Detroit too, but SAS are on another level.
 
Other than Nurkic, there wasn't a single minute to a player who won't be here next year. I can see the Jazz maybe re-upping Nukic if he makes it to the end of the year.
Yeah, wouldn't be shocked if we re-sign Nurkic if he's willing to play for something close to the vet minimum.
 
Ethically speaking the Jazz don't deserve a top 4 pick.

We have two stars (Lauri/Key), a potentially elite defensive center who may also be a shooter (Kessler), a potential star in Ace, and max cap-space next season. Not to mention decent rookie contract pieces who may or may not develop further in Collier/Flip/Brice/Clayton/Hendricks.
 
We're back to being a crapshoot team. Will be win, maybe? Will we get blown out, maybe? Make the playoffs, maybe? Trade everyone away in February, maybe?

Jazz should still try to keep their top 8 pick
It does not have to be in top 4
The #8 pick could still be very good
 
Enjoy the games and pray for a miracle with the pick. The big two just scored 61 on Pistons and 57 on Spurs while some other young guys contributing as well. Both of Lauri and Key has to consider of having a chance for ASG game, at least from the reserve spots, if there's injuries. So you can't sit them out much. Just enjoy their games bc fans can't make decisions.

Yeah but who deserves a pick more? The Thunder who is on pace to win 70 games or us? we are also the least liked destination for free agency, we got screwed over last year when the Mavs got Coop, and we don’t know how walker will recover from his injury and he’s more than half of our defense alone. Without an elite defense or at least top 10 defense you cant be a contender so who can fill that role on our team rn?
