Clarkson having a much better season so far than last year. Not sure it's good enough to convince a team of his value, but he's been a solid player.

Timberwolves fans have completely turned on Julius Randle. They literally hate him.

But that's the point: the Jazz are currently having worse record than several teams with starting guards on about the same level. And the frontcourt of Kessler-Collins-Lauri is better than quite a few frontcourts. If the Jazz rotation remains the same they will start catching up with the Blazers, Raptors, Hornets, Pistons and Nets pretty soon.

No they wont.

Jazz have won 2 of their last 14 games. They play in the West. Relax.

They will eventually play more and more of the young guye.

Do you still feel the same way?

The Jazz are now 4-1 against the Eastern Conference and 3-19 against the Western Conference.

If the Jazz only played Eatern Conference teams we would be 22-5, tied for second best record in the league.

If the Jazz only played Western Conference teams we would be 4-23, worst record in the league.

Fwiw,

Where the top 20 players (according to the HNI -- Huge Nerd Index, an averaging of seven all-in-one rankings of players) of the 2024-2025 season thus far were drafted:

1 (3 players)
3 (4 players)
4
7
8
11 (2 players)
12
15
16 (2 players)
29
30
33
41

11 of these are with the team that drafted them, 9 are with their second or subsequent team.

(Interpret these numbers to confirm your viewpoint.)

Jazz should be able to finagle their way to a bottom 4 record by the end of the season. Charlotte is a serious and unforeseen challenger, however.

Jazz should be able to finagle their way to a bottom 4 record by the end of the season. Charlotte is a serious and unforeseen challenger, however.

With Cody Williams in the G-League, Tidjane Salaun is easily the worst player in the NBA and he's just destroying the team for 20 minutes a night.

Salaun is a bad defender shooting 32% from the field and 29% from three.

Bring back Cody.
