Best Player Lineups for the Jazz

So he is just a very slow learner? will be 22 later this month in his 4th year in the NBA It has nothing to do with stats with me. The ye test alone shows me he is the odd man out on this roster. He can have some minor success, maybe even get another contract in a couple years if he last through this one. I don't however think he impacts winning at all with his positives, given all his negative traits

Not everyone has the same path and progression isnt linear. The talent is clear and his defensive skills are high.

He's rough around the edges, but his defensive talent is tops on our team. He's an exciting playmaker who is only getting better. I see him as kind of a utility type 6th man. A guy who can play a lot of different positions defensively and you put him on a spaced floor he will be a productive playmaker. Extremely rare archetype and will be extremely valuable. His development should be a priority.

And he's part of all the worst 2-, 3-, and 4-man lineups statistically, on defense and offense on the season. Weird right?

I mean, look at how much the lineup data changes game to game this early in the season. I'm not saying lineup data is useless overall, but this early in the season it's practically useless.

By the time he’s 40, he could be serviceable.
 
1-5 FGs, 1-4 from three. THT is like death and taxes. woulda been the GOAT tank commander if the jazz were tanking.

but hey, the dude has 15 assists. this entire season. lol. so, so bad.
 
Yeah our bench is not entirely bought in on the sharing game. Markkanen is the lowest from our starters with 2.7 APG, but our top 3 bench guards in playing time:
Sexton 1.9 assists in 22.2 minutes
THT 1.4 assists in 16.2 minutes
Beasley 1.0 assists in 24.9 minutes

I somehow get the Beasley number, as he is primarily a sniper and plays for others dont really run through him, but Sexton and THT should even accidentally have more passes than that.

For comparison, Vando in 25.4 minutes averages 3.1 assists.

Yeah the bench needs to step up in this area. There are definite ball-stoppers on the bench, THT being foremost among them. Markkanen is doing what he is expected to do and if his assists hover near 3 for the season that is just fine, because he is meant to be the finisher, not the play-maker. Although he does make some nice and timely passes, especially out of a double-team, which ends up in some wide open shots.
 
Collin Sexton last 5 games:

18.4 PPG, 2.8 RPG, 2.4 APG, 1 SPG, 49.2% from the field and 46% from 3 in 28.6 MPG.

Day-um. And he has yet to really hit his stride. We might have just made out like bandits on all these trades. A lot of these guys are right in that I do not think there have been very many trades in the history of the NBA that were so beneficial to both teams as the Jazz-Cavs trade this year. Will go down in history. Would be crazy beyond belief if these are the 2 teams that meet in the finals.
