    Utah Jazz Select Ace Bailey, Pick 5

    I don't think anyone will disagree that Ace's shot distribution needs to be adjusted to allow him to score more efficient buckets but on the other hand, I do not want to rip out the midrange part of his game. I believe that is swinging too far in the other direction. I think we agree for the...

    Utah Jazz Select Ace Bailey, Pick 5

    Loving the midrange isn't necessarily a bad thing, he is great at shooting midrange shots. While it's not the most efficient shot, the midrange is great to have in the playoffs, where getting buckets is tougher and defenses are tighter. Ace is one of the few guys who can be an elite midrange guy...

    Jackpotting Around Draft Recap

    Each of those players individually have interesting upside as on ball guys (except Powell) but they don't complement each other or work together all that well. All these guys are at their best with the ball in their hands and heavily diminished without the ball. It's almost guaranteed that half...

    Jackpotting Around Draft Recap

    To be fair to them, it's pretty hard to trade those picks the day of. Every GM knows you want to move off of them and the offers were probably atrocious.

    Utah Jazz Select Walter Clayton Jr, Pick 18 (Trade)

    I agree. With small guards, it's not all about length, girth matters as well.

    Part of me doesn't want to fall into constantly trading up for guys but, there are some guys I really like still available.

    There is no way they would trade Kas for Sexton.

    Utah Jazz Select Walter Clayton Jr, Pick 18 (Trade)

    WCJ straight up played better than Kas to end the season. Better shooter who produced as the alpha on the best team in the country in high stakes, clutch moments.

    Utah Jazz Select Ace Bailey, Pick 5

    I am not overly worried. If he is bad at the rim, then the organization just needs to put in the effort to get him better with being physical/crafty enough to get to the rim. Insanely young player. And I think the best organizations can get the best out of guys like Ace. There is alot more to...

    2025 Off-Season Trade Ideas Thread

    I would say yes. I don't know if Barrett is a good defender or not but he could be a big 2. Would open some interesting lineups for us: Clayton or Collier/Barrett/Ace/Hendricks/Kessler on top of all the 1sts we would get.

    Its official, the Jazz pulled a Kon on both the Wizards and the Hornets.

    Utah Jazz Select Ace Bailey, Pick 5

    It is nice to draft a guy that has sky high defensive potential and a high motor. I really hope Ace buys into being a defensive playmaker.

    You don't have to convince me but Clingan. It's not a good feeling having your replacement drafted a year after your drafted.

    Utah Jazz Select Ace Bailey, Pick 5

    I can take a crack at this. Rutgers team was horrifically constructed. You don't need to look any deeper than Ace being the best big they had on their roster. If that sounded weird, yes, he was their best big when he is 1000% a wing guy. Ace had the highest rebounds per game at 7.2 and the...

    There has to be some serious red flags with Clingan for them to completely undercut him for Yang. Look for Portland to try and stealth offload Clingan next season.

    4 of the 5 guys are on ball guys for the Nets. What a crazy draft for them.

    Nets drafted 5 guys and Drake Powell is the best shooter of the bunch, that doesn't inspire confidence.

    Utah Jazz Select Walter Clayton Jr, Pick 18 (Trade)

    I think he is better than Keyonte and Collier. We will see what the coaching staff thinks.
