The thing is Svi is not any better now then he was last year. Hardy falling in love with him was totally unexpected.

And just like that, the Jazz have the 5th worst record.

That was arguably the best NBA game for Ace. I think Bailey is starting to realize that he can do so much more besides his stupid long pull-ups.

They started the 4th quarter with 8 white players on the floor. You don't see it very often.

There is no point for Lauri to come back in the game, right? Right?!

Hendricks finally woke up.

Who wouldn't?

Cody was the only one playing defense in the last minutes of the second quarter. There is a lot to be unhappy with about Cody but he always gives the same quiet effort, regardless if it's the close game or the blow-out loss.

Just like the last game: Lauri is 10-18 and the rest of the Jazz are 9-29. For the 3-pointers it is 3-7 for Lauri and 1-13 for the rest. If Lauri, God forbid, gets injured the Jazz may beat their W-L record of the last season.

It's also how generically he plays. Taylor physically looks adequate for his position. He is kinda being in the right place and kinda doing the right thing without any glaring mistakes. But in the end he is absolutely not impacting anything.

Taylor Hendricks is just a random NPC.

He interviews well and is good at answering questions from the media after games. That's all we know about him at this point.

That Knueppel guy is pretty good. Plays like a vet.

The Hornets announcer just called Keyonte "Kyshawn George". Is that the sign of how much Key is recognized around the league?

Just for a comparison, last season Lauri, coming off the Olympics, was averaging 28.6 MPG after the first 5 games.

What I will be looking for in this game is how many minutes Lauri is going to play. Currently, he averages 37.4, being the second in the NBA in MPG. That is insane in general but is absolutely bonkers given both Lauri's history of breaking down after the pro-longed heavy usage and the fact that...

Huh, I did not know that. Given how bad the Jazz are on defense you would think that the team can find a way to secure their best wing defender on a cheap multi-year contract instead of someone like Svi or Love. If Harkless learns to knock down open threes at the 35% clip he would be very...

Why do you guys call Harkless a 2-way player? Below are his stats for 2 seasons he has been in the NBA: 2024-25 - 14 MPG, 3 PPG, 31% - 28%, 50% FT. 2025-26 - 12 MPG, 3 PPG, 33% - 25%, 50% FT. He is very good defensively but there is literally no evidence that he is even passable on offense...

But we have to work with what we have. I think that paring Ace with Key+Anderson or with Collier would work really well for him.

I think part of the blame should be put on Hardy. He still did not find any players that he can reliably pair Ace with to multiply their strengths. He did for other players: Cody and Harkless for defense, WCJ with Nurk and, at the end of the games, Keyonte for extraplaymaking... But Ace is still...
