    The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

    Kinda sorta- just remember how little Kessler helps the Jazz defensive numbers. A player’s offensive capabilities seriously affect defensive numbers- if you’re clanging a bunch of three pointers, leading to fast breaks, or turn the ball over a lot, leading to a bunch of live ball turnovers...

    Rookie Contract Power Rankings

    Kessler . . . Collier - has an elite NBA skill, speed, and passing is near elite and could become so Flip - his numbers looking so good so soon is very promising Key - has to bring his D out of league basement to move up this list Cody - keeps showing flashes- has potential to be a starter and...

    It definitely landed with a thud in this game. Luckily we'll all be fine with it if it takes 10-15 games for everyone to get over their hurt feelings...

    At best he’s a throw in in a bigger deal, right now he doesn’t have individual value- maybe a 2nd predicted to go late in the round…

    Once again confirming Kuzma's cred as the emptiest of empty stats.

    Kyle Filipowski's Road to Being a 7' Playmaker

    His plus/minus was horrific. But hopefully his D comes along, we knew that was where his challenge was/is and it will be the difference between being a journeyman and being a starter level player.

    Kyle Filipowski's Road to Being a 7' Playmaker

    The nice part is his floor more than justifies his draft position, so he is a steal regardless.

    Just needed a bit of tweaking to turn this into a haiku: What is happening? We are leading in this game. Oscar stands in charge.

    Like I said, would be shocked if he fell out of the lottery, but this would be my favorite real life scenario as a BYU fan.

    He's fine going to the basket. If he was a zero in his personal offense, then it'd be one thing, right now it's generally his outside shot in an offense that features the three. Regardless, he's piling up assists and making it work for the team despite his 3 being MIA. Once he gets it going...

    Knecht or Caruso a better comp?

    Between playing with AJ and the scouting eyes that come with that, and NIL, I'm guessing he comes back, unless his agent is hearing he goes in the first round.

    They're both important. Richie is the hard nosed player that doesn't back down from anything and just gets better the bigger the challenge and is vital to BYU. Demin is the oil in the machine keeping all the parts working together and yes, there would be a big drop off in team play if he wasn't...

    Yep, at this point I'm hoping he stays kind of mid enough to drop to the Jazz's Timberpup's pick, but the fact is, BYU's offense just scored in the 90s three straight games, two on the road, two top 25 teams and the hub making it work is Demin. He's going to get the Freshman record for assists...

    My idea on how to fix lottery/tanking

    I like the incentive to stay out of the very bottom, I dislike the fact that the actual worst team (i.e. has the worst record despite trying desperately not to) gets screwed in their pick.

    He gives me heartburn sometimes (or would if we were trying to win,) but I really like having at least one player on roster with absolutely no conscience when it comes to shooting. They come in handy in certain situations, especially when the O kind gets vapor locked. As we move on from...

    Good point made in Jazz pre-game is that we may 'hit' on all our drafted youngsters, which would be pretty unprecedented. Ainge's team should be given credit for that. Sensabaugh was a bit of a flyer, so if he doesn't hit, not a big deal, but the batting average is looking pretty elite...
