Are the Utah Jazz the weirdest team ever? | The Athletic NBA Show
Schle the jazz or the Rockets God this Jazz team is so weird this is like one of the weirdest stories that has happened in a long time with the team because it’s not like oh man now they’re like young guys are coming together things are just looking better
For this team it is strange like the lineups that they put out there that have just like somehow worked uh it it’s honestly a little confusing but they’ve been amazing lately and they’ve been like resurrecting careers here in Utah with guys like Chris Dunn like suddenly right incredibly important to the way
That they play uh markkanen’s been awesome John Collins has come in it’s like as a starter has been really good for them I think I’m gonna go yeah seon has been amazing I I think I’m going to go with with Utah In This Moment and some of this is recency bias and that
The Jazz have been amazing kind of falling short a little bit yeah they’ve been in a bit of a slump recently which is fine like they they’ve still taken a big step forward from where they were they’ve also had a really tough schedule recently the schedule’s yes the schedule’s been
Tough I I love the co the coaching that’s going on in Utah right now as well like you watch them play like will hardy just has them playing like really good offensive basketball you can tell he’s got an open policy like he’s just door’s always open in Utah I just I like
Their team I think marinan like marinin is a straight up star that dude is like he should be an Allstar I don’t I don’t care like I don’t care who’s got knocked off like he’s an allar yeah he’s he’s so I think I lean Utah but some of that is
Just because some of the youth that plays a lot for Houston I think is going to drag them down a little bit and they could end up missing the plan entirely I think I think Utah could like I think Utah could take a step in and like and
Be a play in team this season Josh this was a tough one for me I think I’m gonna agree with schle on it being Utah and I do think it comes down to the youth in Houston kind of dragging them a little bit when it gets to that point I
Think that guys like seon and Clarkson and Dunn have I think a little a little bit more of what it takes to win in that situation in like a playin or playoff situation than guys um in Houston but it’s tough because shenon I love shenon and he’s so good he’s really
Good and offensively and defensively the Rockets aren’t bad defensively they’re great yeah I know so it’s it’s difficult but again the recency bias is tough to overcome with this Jaz like is it is it real is what’s happening real or is it just this kind of thing that’s you know they
The things are just kind of clicking right now but we’re going to go back to down to earth here I’m about to spit in the face of recency bias saying neither I’m playing my flag with the warri knocks them both out there’s no reason to believe in the Warriors right now I
Think they I think they suck but I’m gonna you know we got to get Stu tour this is just this is 100% it’s clickbait baby click it also is what’s that is this is this also so that Josh’s preseason prediction is wrong yeah I just I can’t to beong yeah
That’s all this is I just no offense to the Jazz and the rockets it would actually be great because if the Warriors knock them both down it would also make Jay wrong you know if I if I could get them both to to be wrong on this podcast that’d be phenomenal wow
That is that’s two for one yeah I think I just changed my answer about Pacers Heat
The Athletic NBA Show discuss the Utah Jazz and the Houston Rockets.
