We currently have the 8th worst record in the league. We're on par with the Nets.

I don’t think I’ve been this embarrassed about a group I’m socially connected to or associated with since Trump got elected.
 
I finally stopped watching the NFL this year. Don’t miss it at all. The NBA would be harder to quit, but maybe that means it would only be that much sweeter to be free from.

I enjoy watching the league. We weren't going to win the chip this year, so it's fine to be a work in progress.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Right now, we're getting open shots for Rubio and Crowder and they're shooting in the 20% range. I don't know if that's fixable.

Uhhh, it's obviously fixable. Crowder is a 35% career shooter on open 3's. He's shooting 30% now. That's going to go back to the mean eventually.

The lottery odds changed this year bud. You dont have to be the worst to have a good shot this year.

Honestly though unless you get to 10th worst it isn’t any different. At 10th & 8th worst there are some probability jumps.

We’d have a couple things working for us... Sacramento and Dallas won’t tank because their picks are likely being sent to Boston and Atlanta... but

Unless this DM rib injury lingers... sounds like it’s been a thing since Philly according to Locke I don’t see us being bad enough to tank. Rudy hasn’t really turned on his DPOY defense yet so maybe he doesn’t turn it on and we can get an okayish shot at a top 4 pick. Maybe we can get eliminated early and do the Grizz one year tank mode.
 
If we’re tanking, might as well trade Ingles to see what we can get and so he doesn’t waste his remaining years playing for a loser.
 
The time to tank was last year, not this year. We had the perfect cover with Gobert's multiple injuries. We could have easily just kept him sidelined until the end of the season and sold out all the pieces that won't be part of the future of the Jazz but for good or bad that didn't happen. Now like others have said here tanking is close to impossible, unless Gobert suffers another injury that can sideline him for several months. We are not great right now, but we are also not horrible and Gobert will win us some games as long as he's on the floor.
 
For years I’ve been hoping we wouldn’t turn into the Utah Grazz. But Memphis 2.0 is looking more and more likely.
