Best Player Lineups for the Jazz

I usually update this after wins but we haven’t won in awhile so here it is anyways. This is in terms of net rating which is the net difference between offensive rating and defensive rating.

Best 2-player lineups for the Jazz thus far (min 200 minutes played):

Clarkson/Markkanen +9.0
Olynyk/Markkanen +7.3
Conley/Beasley +5.2
Clarkson/Olynyk +4.8

Worst 2-player lineups for the Jazz thus far (min 200 minutes played):

Sexton/Beasley -4.0
THT/Beasley -2.8
Beasley/Olynyk -2.7
Conley/Vanderbilt -2.5

Best 3-player lineups for the Jazz thus far (min 150 minutes played):

Clarkson/Olynyk/Markkanen +9.7
Sexton/Clarkson/Olynyk +8.9
Sexton/Clarkson/Markkanen +8.6
Clarkson/Beasley/Markkanen +7.0

Worst 3-player lineups for the Jazz thus far (min 150 minutes played):

Sexton/Vanderbilt/Markkanen -6.1
Conley/Vanderbilt/Olynyk -3.9
Clarkson/Beasley/Olynyk -3.8
Conley/Vanderbilt/Markkanen -3.2

Best 4-player lineups for the Jazz thus far (min 75 minutes played):

Sexton/Clarkson/Olynyk/Markkanen +12.1
Conley/Clarkson/Beasley/Markkanen +10.3
Conley/Sexton/Beasley/Markkanen +9.8
Conley/Beasley/Olynyk/Markkanen +9.3

Worst 4-player lineups for the Jazz thus far (min 75 minutes played):

Sexton/Vanderbilt/Olynyk/Markkanen -3.2
Conley/Vanderbilt/Olynyk/Markkanen -2.0
Sexton/Clarkson/Vanderbilt/Olynyk -0.9
Conley/Clarkson/Vanderbilt/Markkanen +0.3

The most notable thing that pops out to me is Vanderbilt is in the majority of the worst lineups and literally not in a single one of the best lineups. Markkanen is in the majority of the best lineups which is no surprise. Olynyk is in a lot of the best lineups but also in a lot of the worst lineups which is interesting.

Also, Vando and Lauri have zero fit. No surprise there as you don't have to guard Vanderbilt, allowing the opposition to put more big/wing resources into neutralizing Markkanen in various ways. Plus neither of these guys is a rim protector.

Like I've been saying... start Kessler, bench (or trade) Vando.

I was interested in the best player lineups for the past two games combined specifically combined. Here they are:

Best 4-player lineups in net rating (min 8 mins played):

Conley/Olynyk/Markkanen/Kessler +64.6

This lineup had an 131.3 offensive rating and 66.7(!!!) defensive rating in 8 total minutes played. Those would both be 1st in the NBA by a wide margin.

Conley/Clarkson/Markkanen/Kessler +63.9

This lineup had an 129.2 offensive rating and 65.2(!!!) defensive rating in 11 total minutes played. Those would both be 1st in the NBA by a wide margin.

NAW/Clarkson/Beasley/Kessler +57.4

This lineup had a 152.6(!!!) offensive rating and 95.2 defensive rating in 9 total minutes played. Those would both be 1st in the NBA by a wide margin.

Clarkson/Olynyk/Markkanen/Kessler +42.3

This lineup had an 123.5 offensive rating and 81.3 defensive rating in 9 total minutes played. The defensive rating would be 1st in the NBA by a wide margin and the offensive rating would be 1st by a decent margin.

Small sample size of course but for over the last two games these lineups were absolutely dominant in stretches.

So basically everyone is better with Kessler. I can't wait to see how this kid progresses over these next few years.

Wrong guy, Steve loves Kessler.

Exactly why I @ him. Wanted him to see the numbers and comments and enjoy like I did. Him being probably the first and biggest Kessler fan on jazzfanz. Other posters are finally catching on and joining in on the hype.

Lol my bad I thought you were trying to tag a hater or something.
 
Last night's game reminded me a lot of games toward the end of last season a plucky team that was at least competitive. Ochai, Dunn, KO, Sexton, Tech and Luka at least hustled and tried. Hardy's praise of Luka post game seemed to indicate this team has a cancer or two on it. I know the Pistons are awful but at least the Jazz were fun to watch for a game.
 
I was surprised by this when I looked it up:

Our rotation player with the highest offensive rating is Kris Dunn.

He also has the best defensive rating and is our only rotation player with a positive net rating.

Yes. Last game he was starting with a somewhat competitive roster around him and it was beautiful offense. I half seriously had Dunn mip campaign before the season, but I kinda knew his contract will not allow him to start, bc we need to shop more expensive ball stoppers.

Link? Dunn has th worst OBPM minus on the team so I don't see how he can have the highest offensive rating

Just the good old NBA.com advanced stats.

Taylor Hendricks the best ortg, drtg and net rating of anyone with 10+ MPG, but its 10 game sample vs 22 for Dunn (Hendricks has more minutes per game than Dunn tho).
