Yeah, but that's who the Jazz are. They've been playing Gay all year. Celts were shorthanded without their bigs.

He just seems like he has a nice feel for the game. The lefty thing probably makes it too obvious, but he needs to try to be exactly like Joe Ingles.
Does everybody forget the five games in a row we lost by 15 total points, or something like that at one point in the season? And we've lost plenty of close games besides that. Whatever we've been, we haven't failed to lose close games. We're just much closer to average on our close game record than the tankers would prefer.

Hawkins is a top 10 prospect at this point . If he goes any time later it better be to us

He’s a fine rotation player… not sure why that matters.
Idk how anyone can use that as an excuse with the end of rotation guys we play.

Hawkins has such a quick stroke. But he’s so passive. Unless he gets the ball off a curl so he can spot up shoot, he’s completely nonexistent. He was Exum for 30 mins of today’s game. Reggie Miller for the final 10.
Looks good. I just dont want shooting guards. I want 6'6" or taller who can shoot.
Our bench is a bunch of random computer generated players if someone made a basketball game and could only afford to license a certain amount of NBA players.

I know his stats aren’t overwhelming, but JHS just looks and feels like a high level player. Just based off of tonight’s game, I like him a lot.
I love him.
JHS showed the JHS experience tonight. Lot of bright spots. He does things that make him look like a lottery pick. But then you look at the stat sheet and he has 19 points on 22 scoring opportunities. He looks nice, but hasn’t bucked the trend of season long terrible inefficiency.
Terrible at the rim, never gets to the line, iffy three point shooter. Numbers aren’t everything but they are alarming in a bad way. Wallace and Black are firmly ahead and I like Bufkin and Bailey more than JHS as well.

I would think about promising Jordan Walsh at 29 to convince him to declare. I think he might be the best defender in the draft.

Lauri's national team mate Olivier Nkamhoua dropped 27 for Tennessee in their upset win over Duke. He is a senior sf/pf with a decent size of 203cm. Solid defender and if his 3pt shot improves - shot last season 40% on low volume whereas this season just 30% so the great game against Duke came out of a surprise for me - I feel he might be worth of a look with 2nd round picks. He has not been too impressive but if he can replicate his jo in the following March Madness games he might sneak in among the 2nd round picks Too bad we have none of them unless there is some draft night trades where one of the 2nds come into this direction. 2nd unit defense would for sre be good with him and Dunn and whoever the center we might acquire.

I don’t think he’s an NBA player.
He literally just turned 19 not even three weeks ago. He has a 7’3 wingspan and like I said he might be the best defender in the draft. If he returned to school I think he’d be a lock for the first round next year.
