Thanks for having TJ on… he's great.
Tony… bring back Game Notes pod… please!
Finally you fixed your audio… for now. Seriously though you need to get this figured out for good
That is a great compliment to Walker. Those are some great centers, established veteran NBA players.
I hope Collins is that good lol. Those are near all-star level players he is compared to.
Colin needs to learn PG skills. He is too short to play SG. It is certainly possible, but it will take a lot of work, and he has lots of competition.
According to stats, Chris Dunn is the best passer on the team, and it isn't close. Plus he's a great defender.
Having John share his minutes with Kelly would kinda shore up both of their deficiencies. John could be the offensive 5 with Kelly spacing, and then Kelly can play the defensive 5 and let John guard a smaller player. Doesn't solve the rebounding issue 100% but I believe in a big rebounding year for Ochai. His strength and athleticism is vastly improved this season
Ty David.
Always glad to hear see read tony Jones.🐸
I don’t like Collins at 5 at all. Glad Tony agrees.
Kessler is the best of those tier 5 players so teir 4 for him. I also think Kessler affects winning more than Collins so I put Collins tier 5. Collins tier 5 at best.
I would tentatively say Keyonte George is by far the best passer on the team. I saw him play in Summer League and he had a lot of excellent passing. We will see if it carries over into regular season, fingers crossed.
John Collins as a Tier 4 player with guys like Zach LaVine & Darius Garland. The Jazz got Collins for Rudy Gay & a 2nd round pick!
I've heard that rebounding was one of Ochai's skills he was suppose to work on? I think having him on the backup lineup as an elite shooter + athletic guy who can get rebounds against lesser players would be great for the Jazz if he can do that. I think during summer league he showed some skills there.
Can't wait for the season and what coach will do with this team. Last year he mixed it up and did it very well. The Jazz are interesting again and have some players that are still a mystery. This year will be another fun ride for Jazz fans.
Collins prolly fits best on the bench
Lol
That part where they say it is tricky. Only seems that way but when the season begins it will be much easier to determine lineups. These players will get injured 🤕 and the jazz have next man 🆙
Prefer to give coaches leeway for when certain players are hot 🥵 and also when cold 🥶
For now, the depth is there and it’ll be more about matchups.
