Ace was not even good in college last year, lol. He is nowhere close. He doesn't play anything like a winning player yet. He doesn't even know what playing within an offense or defense even looks like right now. Every time the ball is passed to him, the possession ends with a contested jumper...

Cam Whitmore on the block. Absolutely perfect fit with the roster, we have to get him. Ace is nowhere close to ready to contribute next year to winning. This guy is a several year project to unlearn all the garbage he likes to do (if Will Hardy cares about doing so...)

Jazz drafting two extremely "coachable" guys back to back (Filipowski and Ace)

Nothing.

Ace is going to love it here, no passing or defense required. The team just needs to explain that passing is illegal in Utah and Ace will become the #1 fan.

He's going to need a lot more than a year or two to unlearn all his bad habits on defense and in making decisions, lol.

The team is extremely bad, no one on the team other than Collier and Filipowski can pass and no one on the roster other than Kessler and Hendricks can defend. The team has four true wings (Ace, Brice, Juzang, and Cody), none of whom are ready to help teams win now (if ever for some of them)...

I mean, the timeline fit is very weird because Ace is like 4-5 years away and Clayton is ready to go right now, but I guess the Jazz just picked two guys they liked. Philosophically, it's kind of funny to take two blackholes to join a roster full of blackholes. At least these guys have...

The Mavs are supposed to be filling their small gunner guard quota with D'lo so IDK. It's hard to find any team that wants Sexton or Keyonte or Clarkson, but we have to trade them.

Have to think Keyonte, Sexton, and Collins get moved.

Yeah, that's a vote of negative confidence for Keyonte.

Every player on this team other than Collier and Filipowski is so bad at passing that it's kind of amazing. Maybe the worst passing team in modern NBA history.

Yang can't move, this fit with Clingan is the worst fit imaginable.

I don't think he understands just how much this team loves gunner ball. He's going to get to chuck shots all day long without even thinking about passing or defending.

Passing is illegal in Utah, Isaiah Collier having to babysit even dumber kids now. (this pick is fine, we'll see how this goes)

Ainge starting to talk about toughness is when I knew Tre to the Jazz was dead.

Big mistake by him, he doesn't know that Will Hardy hates passing, it's a different era now in Utah.

Fears' numbers are both very impressive for an 18 year old and very unimpressive for a prospect because nothing fits together currently. Fears scored mostly because his body control allowed him to flop to the line at will, but this isn't going to translate to the NBA until he learns how to score...

Fears is extremely similar to Collier yes, but he is a bit better of a prospect because 1. His elite body control suggests he can develop a good finishing package whereas that was hard to project for Collier. 2. Fears is a much better free throw shooter Is the gap nearly as large as you'd want...

Gotta think Lauri gets traded 20 games into next season if the Jazz really take Fears and another super raw young guy like Gonzalez or Riley. Fears is like 4-5 years away and Markkanen will be 32-33 by then.
