round 3 for markannen is good right?
Joshy, i didn't even know you had gone pass 60k. Congratulations
Yahoo has Lauri ranked #9 😱 Categories head to head would you keep Lauri in the 9th round or Poole in the 14th round?
Whats your reasing behind thinking Horton Tucker isn't a starter calliber player? Defensive issues, turnovers, %?
Most underrated scorer in last draft by far was Sensabaugh. Defensively needs work but will be interesting to see his role in 2nd half. Utah needs to prioritize the youth at some point. Next season at the latest. I think this will be a transition year.
Huh. Jazz 2024 #1 goes to Thunder, protected to #10. They're as deep as any team in the league in terms of 240 minutes quality play per night. So even allowing for the awkward fits in some places, I think it would be hard for them to be that bad. No tanking.
ALSO. People universally talk about "this era of positionless basketball", so why does your analysis seem to follow a "rule" that they HAVE to have somebody 6'5" to 6'8" at the 3? There will be more than 96 minutes/game for bigs, trust Coach Hardy to figure it out.
ALSO ALSO. In 9-cat, Kessler's terrifically positive impact on FG%, Blocks and Rebounds more than counteracts his negative impact on FT%, Stl, and Asst. With more minutes, point won't be a big negative. I'll be VERY happy to get him in the 5th.
Other than THAT, you're spot on, and thanks for all the work you put in.
