Will the Utah Jazz ever win an NBA Championship?
I was watching TV today and saw this commercial for MLB: THE SHOW and it had the Chicago Cubs winning the World Series. It was a pretty great commercial mostly because I have been there. I have done the same with NBA 2k quite a few times and it really feels good to see your team on top.
I really got deep into thought about our future core; Burks, Favors, Kanter, and Hayward. I think all of these guys could potentially be all-stars. I don't think any of them will be superstars. I could be proved wrong though. I really don't know if this core is enough. We will need a superstar built around them.
I was also thinking is this core better than when we had Williams, Boozer, Okur, and AK? All of which were All-Stars and it was never enough. AK went downhill. Boozer was too small and couldn't play defense. Okur was a good scorer, that is about it. Deron's game was something I never really had to question , it was more his attitude.
Now we have Favors, who plays great defense and is improving with his offense, also feel he is an underrated rebounder. Then we have Hayward, streaky shooter but, can go off any given night. He plays hard, and his defense is heavily underrated. Burks who is looking like a gem, can score at will. Is not a *****. He is a consistent shot and a couple summers in the weight room, from being a force. Kanter is interesting. Not a lot of playing time, but we for sure have seen flashes. Post moves and foot work at times look excellent. His athleticism is not so good. Shot looks pretty nice too.
If this core lives up to the potential and with a star in there and obviously more building blocks. I think this team could take the NBA by storm over the years. But, I have a hard time accepting the fact that we may not be able to compete with the Kevin Durants, and Lebron James' of today. Those guys will attract talent where ever they go. I just hope we can get someone that could do the same. I feel that is our best chance.
So what do you guys think?
