Once you hit 25 wins, you're essentially out of contention for a top pick. So they've got to start being an all-time bad team immediately or it's too late. I think they still trade players close to the deadline, but only if they're blown away with offers like Ainge prefers. Otherwise they'll be trying to make the playoffs. I think we just go for the playoffs this year to be honest. We'll still have two good first round picks and our own regardless plus a treasure chest of future picks/assets that we can move as well.

And it's possible that you could get even more by trading some pieces in the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we're in a really good spot going forward. I really didn't have any expectations for the guys that we traded for but Lauri looks like a guy with legitimate All-Star potential and Kessler has flashed as well. We went from a team with limited depth, young talent, cap space, and draft picks to one of the youngest teams in the league with a ton of assets and cap flexibility. Excited to see how we continue to build and shape our roster going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Jazz still need a star bad. Obviously the Jazz need to hit on the picks they have but having a ton of picks dont guarantee you will get a legit star to build around. Look at OKC.

I think Ainge has already shown that he can acquire star talent and even after gutting our roster we're still competitive and not a bottom feeder like the Thunder. The most ideal situation for us is that one of those Cavs/Wolves picks ends up being a top pick (in the perfect world multiple would) so we can add a young star level talent to an already competitive team. As of now though we'd have the 14th, 15th, and 28th picks in the draft. The Wolves won a few games but they were against bad teams, hopefully they keep losing and so do the Nets/76ers.

We can't discuss the merits of that "hate" group here, so you probably shouldn't be discussing it. Yea, take your shots with that scare quote and then hide behind the rules. BHI is a hate group btw. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People said black panther party was a hate group. It's a large community of people who disagree with that. So yeah that's probably why it shouldn't be discuss and why the rules are here for that bs.

It's mostly the Holocaust denial, the weird Hitler worship, and the theft of another ethnic/religious group's history and culture. I don't think that being the same color as Huey Newton and having a lot of members changes any of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was Christianity churches that have preached racism and radical ideas in this country. People have committed hate crimes on their belief of Christianity. Do that make it a hate group.
