Do the Jazz have any top-5 players at their respective position?

[framer]

Not IMO. Too many other legit two way players on that list.

Did you not see Gobert enter the game and hold the Magic scoreless for 9 damn minutes? Who the hell else in the league can do something like that? How many "good offensive possessions" is something like that worth? And it's not like he is chopped liver on Offense, he is averaging 10 a game on a team where we have plenty of scorers.

Hayward. He's not as good as George (dude's proven too much in the playoffs imo) but he's 5th ahead of those other clowns you listed.

Hayward destroying George this year in stats.

Hayward/Gobert.

Agree with the other posters that having all our starters in the conversation is pretty incredible and bodes well for the post season.

If Gobert had better hands he would be top 5.

If Favors was more consistent he'd be top 5.

Basically impossible for George Hill to be top 5 with how many great PGs there are. Curry/Kemba/Lillard/Westbrook/Harden, it's basically impossible for Hill to penetrate those 5.

I think Hayward is a SOLID 4 behind Lebron,Kawhi, Durant

you're not embarrassed by sample size at all, right?

Didn't know we were basing this off of nine or ten games worth of stats.

You Gobert's dad or something?

Or 4 games in the case of Hayward.

Gobert IMO is the single most impactful player in the league on the defensive end. So that makes him #1 at 50% of the game. Gobert's rim protection>>>>scoring from the center position.

Rudy's obviously top-5.. Maybe the media doesn't say it, the players know tho.. He's passing the early season eye test with flying colors..

 

[Game6Conley]

SF is the best position in the NBA and if Hayward isn't top-5 he's close, behind some no-brainer HOF'ers.

He looks improved again this year. Which is just about the best sign you could hope for...
