Lauri is a 3rd starter. Walker is a 4th or 5th starter. Collier is okay to start too. Keyonte is giving off 6th man vibes. The Jazz don't have their top-2, franchise-shaping guys.

I think Lauri can be an elite second option but only if he gets closer to that 22-23 all-star level again. All the relevant impact metrics pretty much ranked him as a top-20 player during that season. You would obviously have to pair him with an elite creator too.

Tank notwithstanding, it would have been sweet to beat the Lakers on national TV to spoil the Doncic slobberfest. I tried to watch this game, really tried. But, I couldn't take it anymore. God, this is awful basketball. I'm squinting hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but all I see is darkness.
 
Man the Lakers are so easy to hate. I was watching their feed from League Pass to get the maximum Luka delirium effect (and for the outlier chance that we spoil his debut).

During 2nd quarter Collins was shooting free throws and one of their announcers said "they are getting too many free throws..", and the other one added "The other night Pacers shot 9 more free throws than the Lakers. That doesnt happen very often, that the other team shoots more free throws."

Like are they really living in a reality where it is noteworthy if the other team gets more free throws than the Lakers?
 
I get why Clarkson is a fan favorite and he is playing well this year but damn….I really hate that he plays for the Jazz. He makes my eyes bleed. When Clarkson is in the game the whole game is about Clarkson.
 
He's a better shooter than LBJ but the question is who will be first option in a clutch game?
Both. Either or. Who has the best matchup. Who has had the better game so far that game.
All things being equal. I want LeBron with the ball at the end. Luka just gives him a great option to go to
