Booo. Our schedule is difficult enough where we'll probably land the 11th spot with Gordon, but it would be nice to get that 9th spot without him.

Jazz slide to 11th with this loss at Denver. Tied for 10th actually.
Jazz are in good position to finish top 10 in the lotto.

DL has stacked the deck for the draft.
3 over seas players
8 million in tradable team friendly contracts (Booker, Cotton, Cooley and Johnson)
Millsap, Burke and Ingles
5 1st round picks in the next 3 drafts
Roughly a half dozen 2nd rounders in the next 3 drafts.
Now the Jazz are pushing a top 10 pick pre lotto.
DL is gonna rock this with a trade for his man in the draft and sign a free agent steal.
2015-16 playoffs with the 6th seed.
Book it.

If CHA had won today we would have been tied for 9th which is where I predicted we would end up finishing last month.
The Jazz's schedule turns tough in April. We could lose our last 5 games, especially as non-committal as we're looking right now. All we need is to duck a game or two on Brooklyn and Charlotte.
Not to mention the surging DEN. They could also catch up to us if we're not careful.

In the end DL will fail to move up in the draft, saying the cost was too high. And we won't be attractive enough to any 2nd-tier FA's. Jazz MIGHT land a player like Booker, a former fringe starter who a team is clearing out so a better player can take his place. And we'll learn Tomic was just using the Jazz for leverage; he'll sign a new multi-year deal with Barcelona. AS for Neto, I'm not sure why they've soured on him. He doesn't even get a shot in summer league. Probably because he'd outplay the other two PG's we have on the roster.
Big moves this summer will be bringing over Pleiss, drafting Oubre, adding Motum and making a run at Brooks to be our backup PG.
If we can get to #9 in the draft, one of Winslow, Johnson, Hezonja and Porzingis is likely to be there. WCS could go top 8.
It's true, I know nothing.
Exactly. 9th is the magic number in this draft.
The next backstop seems to be 12th. The first is 4th.
I think the Jazz either move up in the draft or they make a trade for someone. Then bring over Tomic and sign a back up PG.
The TANK is fully operational....
