2024-2025 Tank Race

The Jazz are going to need to hope to get lucky. That was always the case, but I think 5th best odds is very likely and we really need to get a top 2 (maybe top 3) pick for this season to feel worth it.
 
I will probably watch 0 games next season if we still have either JC and get a 7-10th pick again. Generational talent in the draft? No thanks! We want to watch our vets play 34 minutes a game so we can miss the playoffs every year AND never get a good pick! Woohoo!
 
The Jazz play the Heat two times during Butler’s 7-game suspension which is really super awesome.
 
We're getting to the cool zone where Ainge refuses to add pieces to make the team good because he thinks he's getting ripped off but Ainge refuses to trade Collin Sexton to tank because he thinks he's getting ripped off.

You do not need to "win" every trade, man.

There some true in it and it's like that for 3 years now. This team is too good for tank as hard as some others, let's admit it and add pieces to improve it step by step. We will never get a Wemby or a Chet unless we get very lucky. And if it takes 3 or 4 years, prime Lauri will pass already...
Or trade Lauri- Colin and be bottom 1-3 for the next 3 years, then we may have a chance.

Half decision have never been a recipe for success on my opinion.
 
We have a stretch of very winnable games coming up. Winning the last two games really hurts the tank. Before we were hoping to sell off vets to get top 3 lottery odds. Now we might be selling off vets just to ensure we stay bottom 5.
 
Top 3 lottery odds gives us as good of a chance as anyone to land a top 2 pick (27.4%) or top 3 pick (40.1%). Top 5 lottery odds drop us to 21% for a top 2 pick and 31.6% for a top 3 pick.
