    The guy I've been thinking about lately is Lu Dort. I think whoever it is needs to be an amazing on ball defender and + help defender. I think they also need to be a good connective piece and need to at least be an adequate shooter. Ideally we would have another on ball player who can break...

    Keyonte, Ace, Lauri, Kessler, ___________ I feel pretty confident that we have 4 starting level players on the team. Which player do you think would best fit in to this group? Try to be realistic or players that would be somewhat attainable. Draft picks are fine, but if you are going to...

    - Keyonte had some incredible passes in this game. His activity level on defense is very high this year. - Lauri is already wearing down. He missed so many bunnies in this game that just looked like he was too exhausted to finish. Maybe this game convinces him and the team to give him...

    Time to start the 2040 draft thread. I'm watching my son's 2nd grade basketball game and there is a kid who just hit a step back jump shot for the game winner. After he hit the shot he shimmied a little, LOL.

    Alabama with a crazy schedule so far. St John's, Purdue, Illinois, and then Gonzaga tonight. They will also play @UNLV and then have Arizona next month before getting in to SEC play.

    This is 100% my bad. And this will be my last post about Cody as a tank commander. If anyone wants to discuss further you can PM me. I do apologize, I should have ignored a lot of posts here.

    Cody's direct impact is pretty straightforward. If you took every time he touched the ball and replaced it with an average offensive player we would score 1-2more points per game on those possessions. Assuming his defensive impact is about 0, then we are really only talking about a 1-2 points...

    You think we would have had a 150 ortg if Cody wasn't playing those minutes? Lololol.

    That's not my point though. I'm not saying Cody is a good offensive player or that he makes our offense better. I'm not saying the offense couldn't be better with someone else taking his minutes. My point has been that he's not a tank commander, in the sense that he singlehandedly loses us...

    ???? Cody didn't tank the offense because it wasn't tanked with him on the court. Calling it a small sample size is using it to predict whether the Jazz will continue to have an ok offense with him on the court. That's my opinion, but I could be wrong.

    Is the stuff about garbage time true? If so, back it up, I'm open to new information.

    People complaining about small sample size and then pointing to 3 minutes as a gotcha. Smh.

    The part about our offense being fine with him on the court this year is not an opinion. The other part is and I could be wrong about that.

    It's not small sample size. It's literally the entire sample. THIS YEAR the offense has been fine with Cody on the floor.

    It's exacerbated with Collier because he doesn't get guarded either and worst of all he actually passes to Cody.
