Dunks and threes (great site btw) does some predictions. Injuries are factored in, but it's not too rigorous in that area. Here are the predicted rankings:

1. WAS - 19.1
2. UTA - 23.0
3. NOP - 26.1
4. POR - 28.0
5. TOR - 30.3
6. CHA - 30.4
7. DET - 31.9
8. CHI - 32.8
9. BKN - 33.1
10. PHI - 35.3

Bonus - T-Wolves with 16.8% chance of missing play in, 44.8% chance of missing top 8. Currently projected to be 17th in draft position.

That would be fantastic on both fronts

Yeah, the top 3 of 2026 being so good and having legitimate Utah connections (with AJ playing HS ball in Utah and maybe playing college at BYU while Cam is Boozer's son) and the team being so bad basically guarantees another tank unless something really weird happens.

We're all in Jazzfanz therapy at the moment. Let's hug it out.

Everyone was super down on Kessler last year and now he looks great. All of our guys are super young, and have lots of time to show potential. We'll get some more glimmers of hope, just don't watch the GLeague, lol.

Fwiw I wasn't super down on Kessler last year. He was a top 3 type of defensive player in the league in his second year.

Kind of sad that our 2nd round pick we threw in in the Conley trade might have slightly better value than the Cavs pick this year (30th vs ~32nd) given context flexibility for second round picks

Folks in this thread will never be satisfied until the Jazz, Wolves and Cavs finish the season with the 30th, 29th and 28th records. And even then...

They won by 30... How much convincing a win can you get?

yeah, it was probably a schedule loss for the Lakers. Long travel B2B, but still a dominant win.

Death, Taxes, and Saint Cy being contrarian to my posts. I get a thumbs down about every 3rd post from Saint Cy.

Why do you go out of your way to prove you are a stick in the mud or that you have a muddy stick up your Arse?
 
DET loses by 10
BKN wins by 9
PHI loses by 4

Maxey got fouled on a 3 and should have had a chance to tie the game with 3 free throws, but it didn't get called.
 
The Wolves won three games in a row in the early part of the season … and are still outside the play-in. That's just shows how tough is the West and how hard it is to move up in the standings there. Minnesota is in for a long and difficult season: their hole did not look that deep but it would take a lot to get out of it even if everything goes right for them.
 
Clippers looked dead on a back-to-back. Twolves also had a rest advantage vs. the Lakers. I think they're going to hover around .500 for a while.
 
Here's my SWOT analysis for the Jazz Tank this year:

Strength: Tanking teams that we are definitely worse than: SAS, DET,

Weakness: Tanking teams that are definitely worse than us: WAS

Opportunity: Tanking Teams that we can outtank if we try: POR, CHA, TOR, BKN, CHI,

Threats: Teams that didn't start off as tankers, but are just bad: NOP, PHI, SAC,
