We looked pretty locked into the #9 pick. Minnesota looks like they’ll end up anywhere from 16-18 currently. Philadelphia could potentially drop to 25/26 if they lose a couple more games.
Laughable that the Jazz drafted Udoka over Jaden McDaniels.
I agree with this. Still think the Jazz should’ve offered LA a deal they couldn’t turn down before the season started. Give them 3 quality starters for a pick swap this year and the same top 4 protected pick we ended up with anyways.
Maybe the Lakers still deal with the Wolves at the deadline, but if they had this version of Conley, I’d doubt it.
Minny win because they play really well, not because Kings are bad. All starters in double digit, 33 assist for 6 TO ! Elite defense. I know many people here expect Minny to suck , if we are realistic, they play quite well since 10 games and can end in the PO directly. It sucks for our pick but as i allways root for Rudy and Mike success, i can deal with it. Rudy was huge tonight in the 4th as was Mike.
I dont say that Sacramento defense is good. They conceide 118 points per game this season as tonight. They were ate their usual level. but they are 3rd at West so for a bad team..... i wish next year Jazz are as bad as this and end 3rd.Lol you think Sacramento’s defense is good? You also flip-flop on Minnesota after every single game lmao.

I may flip flop on Minnesota but as least i did not predict they will collapse this year....
Your right i was clearly thinking they were a top 2-3 as West. But they play 55 games without their best player for me KAT, which probably did not help. I still believe they can be a contender next year if KAT and ANT are healthy. and if Rudy and Mike not falling down which can allways happen considering their ages.You’re right you said they were going to be a top-2 team lmao.
Can't remember who was saying hell no to Naz the other day.... We'd be lucky to have him. Under-rated and getting better.

If I had to guess I would say we end up around 7th or 8th.
As an early prediction I would guess 7/19/23 or something like that.
Yes i agree, thats also why i think the Minny strategy is quite risky. They have a 2 years windows ( this year and next) to achieve something great. After that as you say, they have to pay ANT and MC Daniels, and Rudy and Mike will start to be very old....I think they will be a lot better next year and I’m glad that is the year we skipped getting their pick or swap. That is the last year before they have to pay Edwards and McDaniels plus it’s the last year of Conley’s current deal.
Basically everyone that chimed in on the topic were down on the prospect.Can't remember who was saying hell no to Naz the other day.... We'd be lucky to have him. Under-rated and getting better.
Nah… people were downplaying his game. He’s worlds better than Vando. I get not wanting to pay a ton but he’d be able to get 20-25 minutes a night really easily.I don’t think anyone was saying “hell no” as much as “how much are we willing to pay for a guy to backup Kessler?” He’s not going to come cheap. On his current contract, great. No problem. On his next contract? Same issues as Vando. Not sure I want that next contract on my books. Just don’t think the Jazz can compete in pay, minutes and role.
