Agreed

I have no way of proving this, but if you were to ask GM's if they would rather take over an organization with Anthony Davis and 11 other bodies or the current Jazz roster I am guessing the vast majority would opt for Davis.

I love the illogical optimism for the Jazz on this board

The Jazz are 19-12 with Rudy Gobert playing.

RdF3

2/10/16 11:28am

And even better when both Gobert and Favors are in the line up.

Rise Against

2/10/16 11:31am

14-7 with both Favs/Rudy playing

Mr Bassman

2/10/16 11:39am

Jazz allow only 92.7 ppg in games with Favs/Rudy

Mr Bassman

2/10/16 11:47am

That rate puts them at 4th in the west.

Rise Against

2/10/16 11:47am

And that's not including other key players also injured during that span

RdF3

2/10/16 11:44am

They had a great win last night and are a playoff team when healthy.

The Lakers are done for a long time. If this is all you have, go for it.

SandYFan

2/10/16 11:30am

You do realize that for a long stretch they were without 4 of their top 5

Rise Against

2/10/16 11:31am

Exum will not add 10 wins

wapiti

2/10/16 11:34am

as it relates to injuries, the Gobert factor is interesting

smokymountainrain

2/10/16 11:47am

Man, you guys make me laugh over and over again

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 1:01pm

I'm assuming he meant 10 wins from both Exum returning and having our other

jreid191

2/10/16 1:14pm

This is what I meant. Not Exum by himself, but Exum + the other 4 healthy.

Rise Against

2/10/16 1:44pm

Also, I love your analogy even though it is so off-based

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 1:17pm

Look at the NBA next season...rather than saying the Jazz can't do it, tell me

specsauce

2/10/16 1:25pm

So most teams have had their top 4 miss over 19% of their games this year?

jreid191

2/10/16 1:33pm

Your data would be more conclusive if you used the actual 4 best players

Partly both

2/10/16 4:32pm

Top 4 is pretty arbitrary. It helps your argument because it doesn't include

Top 4 is fairly arbitrary, although I was just going off of the original

cmarrio

2/10/16 6:20pm

Favors, Gobert, Exum, Burks have all had significant injuries

ayfan

2/10/16 11:32am

One disagreement: Jazz won last night fair and square. It was a good win.

Linescratcher

2/10/16 11:41am

they can pass up Dallas imo.

Mr Bassman

2/10/16 12:06pm

Question is: How good is Hayward? Top 30 in the league? What about Gobert?

runnincoug

2/10/16 11:46am

Gobert, from a value standpoint, is a superstar and probably top 10, at least

smokymountainrain

2/10/16 11:48am

The positional and salary flexibility that Gobert gives the Jazz is intriguing

Linescratcher

2/10/16 11:52am

I'd say Gobert when healthy this season has been a top 30 player. Hayward and

jreid191

2/10/16 12:02pm

exactly. The big trick will be trying to keep them together. But luckily, I

runnincoug

2/10/16 12:10pm

Odd to say but all 4 could be top 30 players

wapiti

2/10/16 12:39pm

Gobert, a superstar? Huh?

messi

2/10/16 7:06pm

Ranked #8 center before the season, and he just gets better

runnincoug

2/10/16 8:02pm

Well, for starters, let's have him make his first All-Star team before we give

messi

2/10/16 8:31pm

Did you just give a fantasy ranking to tell us how good he

kimdaddy35

2/11/16 12:08am

first result off google...others have said it. ... you seriously wouldn't rank

runnincoug

2/11/16 6:59am

Whether I would rank him that high or not is really irrelevant

kimdaddy35

2/11/16 11:57am

Good grief. Ok, fine. Here's NBA.com ranking Gobert #2 this season. Even better.

runnincoug

2/11/16 12:06pm

Second longest winning streak in the NBA right now. They'll be a 5-7 seed.

Charles Barkley said he felt like the Jazz have the best young talent in the

RC Vikings

2/10/16 11:57am

You know who had the top young talent a year ago?

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 1:29pm

wow!

Mr Bassman

2/10/16 2:39pm

I think he likes that dumpster fire of a team called The Nuggets

-C9-

2/10/16 2:49pm

that would explain a lot

Mr Bassman

2/10/16 2:54pm

I would say the Nuggets are my team, although I care far more about the

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 4:47pm

If I may, I think the reason for optimism among Jazz fans isn't about the fact

-C9-

2/10/16 4:56pm

Would you mind providing examples of posts that demonstrate this optimism

WhiteAndBlue

Take a look around the West. I would love to hear more of your indepth analysis

The Jazz, like all teams, are not going anywhere until they have 2 legit stars

Thrill

- signed, the 03-04 Detroit Pistons.

an anomaly for sure - but showed it was possible. Gives teams like Utah hope.

Probable Sacko

2/10/16 2:11pm

The only team (ever?) to buck that trend. Wallace started in the All-star game

Thrill

2/10/16 5:31pm

That's the point, they were all borderline stars.

Probable Sacko

2/10/16 5:54pm

Agreed

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 1:31pm

all stars or super stars? If healthy, Gobert, Favors and Hayward would all

runnincoug

2/10/16 2:23pm

Didn't both the Pistons and Hawks get 4 from one team?

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 2:54pm

Who are the Warriors two legit stars? Steph and Klay? Draymond?

SandYFan

2/10/16 3:20pm

All 3. Steph and Klay were All-NBA last year so they definitely qualify

kimdaddy35

2/10/16 4:39pm

You serious?
