Its all really nice
That first lineup is my dream come true. Should be good defensively. Size/length advantages all over. Lots of offense. Multiple shot creators. Willing passers. Shooting. Paint scoring. Multiple free throw merchants.
 
I just did a quick statistical comp of Ace and AJ.
AJ scores more points in less minutes on much better efficiency than Ace did (AJ 57.9% Efg and Ace 51.4% Efg). AJ 28 points per 40 minutes. Ace 21 points per 40 minutes. Rebounds are the exact same per 40 minutes (8.6). AJ averages much more assists. AJ more steals and Ace more blocks.
AJ with a PER of 28.9 and Ace with a PER of 19.9. AJ with 3.7 win shares and Ace with 2.8 win shares.

Ace listed at 6 foot 10 and 200 lbs and AJ listed at 6 foot 9 and 210 pounds.

Sure would be fun to see those two on the court together.
 
Things the Jazz need more of:
- physical strength creating paint touches and gravity (so far it’s mostly Collier and Nurk)
- isolation scoring (so far it’s mostly Keyonte and Brice)
- high-level playmaking next to Keyonte (mostly Walt and Nurk right now)
- defensive playmaking (right now it’s Kyle and ??)
