SB Nation's Jazz preview

[HighlandHomie]

It's always cute seeing national outlets' commentary on the Jazz when they've only seen a couple games (if any at all). This one from SB Nation is extra rich in that it's fans with no knowledge of the Jazz offering their input instead of 'experts': https://www.sbnation.com/a/nba-preview-2014/utah-jazz

The Best/Worst case scenario part made me laugh as there was no mention of Hayward. You'd think the guy the FO has marked the cornerstone of the team with his contract might have an impact one way or another.

Regular season is just about here - and almost time for us to start making people look like fools for sleeping on us! Playoffs baby!!!! GO JAZZ

This one from the Bleacher Report is the BEST Jazz preview I've read all preseason. Obviously this guy has followed the Jazz: https://bleacherreport.com/articles...ew-roster-breakdown-win-loss-prediction-more?

This is a great point:

All four appear to have improved over the course of the offseason, and seem like shoo-ins to be a part of Utah's best five-man unit.

That leaves one spot. Could it be the current starter, Kanter, who recently dropped 27 points on the Oklahoma City Thunder? Or perhaps it's the free-agent acquisition, Booker.

A more radical prediction would be one of the rookies, Exum or Hood. If that ends up being the case, it would mean that Snyder truly embraced "position-less" basketball.

It may not be a question of Kanter v Booker. If Exum or Hood start lighting it up we could see a more guard heavy lineup.

Hell, might was well throw Gobert in there too. Jesus, this season is going to be rad.
