The issue just keeps coming back to the original sin: we needed to actually, seriously tank for multiple seasons but only have done it once. But since we did half-*** tanking we got none of the benefit for basically the same amount of pain of non-stop tanking.

This is such an unusual scenario, but if it keeps happening, the Jazz keep losing, and the Jazz are looking to flip the switch next year and/or cash in, this gets real nice for the organization. In particular, his contract is insanely team friendly. If you find a cap-strained playoff team...

Top-8 protected, but since the top-4 are lottery slots, you could have as many as four teams leapfrog teams with worse records, which means in order to guarantee keeping their pick, the Jazz have to finish bottom-4 in the standings.

Bad news: The Jazz fans will certainly not end with the worst record. Nets have that in a death grip. The Pelicans are also probably worse than the Jazz while trying to win. The Jazz will draft top-4, or barely keep the pick, it looks like (I know you were making a joke but I just ran with...

Simple solution: don’t, then. It will actually be good for your life.

The Jazz are 1000% not getting that pick.

It is literally the most lopsided trade I can ever recall (without doing a deep historical dive).

The league’s #1 clown.

Umm. We had the worst record on account of a Washington buzzer-beater to close the season. By the skin of our collective teeth were the Jazz able to maintain their position. The Jazz were able to lose a lot of close games by sheer willpower to tank. These stupid close wins against bad teams are...

**** this.

I don’t know how to tell the cowards that this outcome is awesome. One more year of this bull ****… pretty sure. The universally good news: Lauri putting up crazy numbers and Keyonte’s leap looks real.

5 games into the season?

Serious? Happens all the time. Pick a year.

Sorta. It also is worth noting teams don’t have to tank to be one of the worst teams.

Lebron might be gone. Reaves isn’t going anywhere.

He has to choose to sign here over the Lakers. But yeah, sure, throw the offer. It’s only four years late, and the Jazz can’t offer more than the Lakers now, but how could we pass on those incredible John Collins seasons that all Jazz fans will cherish forever?

This is going to be what we use our capspace on.

Looks like they’re going to have to pull some surgical shenanigans until then. We need Cody Williams.

The question with this team is whether they are bad enough to secure a top-8 pick. Right now, the Jazz look like they’re headed for the worst-case scenario of coughing up the ~10th pick. I don’t know how much people have analyzed the situation, but being .500 against bad or asleep teams does...

Just to elaborate: -we can’t trade swaps directly -for comparison, we had ~9 1sts from other teams in 2023, we now have ~4 -Lauri’s impact on winning is at this stage very possibly the difference between keeping a *TOP-8* pick or not which is worth calculating into the value, IMO. We have...
