Central tank command : the official thread

Ah, forgot Hood is on the lower end of the rookie scale. Good call.

Still, Hood isn't our 2nd best player. Favors is by far and clearly the 2nd best. It's too bad him and Gobert don't work well together. This G injury might be a blessing in disguise as Favors is increasing his trade value dramatically right now.

And lol that Mitchell is the 2nd or 3rd best player. Thabo and Ingles occupy the spots behind Favors, and then 6th man Rodney gets a nod. Mitchell might become not Trey Burke some day but for now he's about at Alec Burks' level as far as ranking best player goes.


So Franklin had Donovan as our sixth best player a week ago? Worst take I've seen on this board.
 
It is time we stopped pretending that the team simply needs to gel to make noise in the playoffs, and start thinking of the future.

Let us aim for as good a pick as possible!

Go tank!

Do you look back at this thread and think, "I am the greatest fair-weather fan that there ever was."??

No reason to tank. We have our two superstars- Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell. And Mitchell is gonna be everything Hayward never was... A natural alpha mentality scorer with top tier athleticism, leadership traits and class/integrity.

Now we need to start preparing to make a big run in a couple years when Donovan has developed and Rudy is still in his prime.
 
Mitchell needs dramatic improvements to his handle, passing, rebounding, shooting %s and getting to the FT line. Yes, it's "possible" but extremely unlikely. Like 1%. Mitchell is a stud, will be a perennial all star and lead this Jazz team. But the difference between LeBron and Mitchell is massive.
The reason I think it's possible is because I see similarities in him with Jordan in his attitude and desire to be great. In fact, he plays with more intensity than Jordan and he seems tireless, as if he's playing within himself. No, he's not as big as Jordan (in fact, he looks more like 6-2 than 6-3) but he has that ability to make spectacular plays that few others can make like Jordan. He's also a year younger than Jordan when he came to the NBA.
