It's pretty cool to see something that started as a fun hobby a few years ago result in getting published in the @sltrib NBA writing remains just a fun hobby for me, but I'm pretty excited about this! Thanks for all the support @danclayt0n sltrib.com/sports/jazz/20…

@Tjonesonthenba My concern is that he won't be able to break out of the siakam, DeRozan tier without a better 3 ball. If he can get to 35 off the bounce with 4-5 attempts a game I think he's golden.

For starters saying he can’t shoot is inaccurate. He’s very good from mid range.
Haydo@donjazz45man

@Tjonesonthenba What alleviates that concern Tony? His form and fundamentals on the shot?

@Tjonesonthenba AJ is a much bigger risk.. defense isn't there and neither is the shot. Huge upside if he pans out... But DP has a much clearer path, all the skills, and just a more complete package.

Is an AJ to siakam comp crazy? I think it might be right and I haven't seen that talked about.

@Dunzod @jayjazz3 @AJ3Jazz @rgiss11 Yup. The concerns over him at this point feel fabricated, the same way the Ace concerns were. He's a tier above AJ imo, he's a more complete player with a higher ceiling. AJ has an incredible ceiling, but is still raw in some ways, and flawed in a few others.

I think @jayjazz3, @AJ3Jazz & @rgiss11 have pushed me towards wanting Darryn Peterson over every other prospect in this draft 🫣

@rgiss11 AJs shooting is an issue. He can create, so he's more than just a pure scorer... But DP is just eally really special man. People getting clouded by this past year

Peterson had 5 dunks in the McDonalds All American game. He had 9 in 700 minutes all year. So clearly was affected by a (now totally manageable) high level of creatinine + creatine usage. Still put up the best BPM from a freshman guard since 2008 lol.

@Tjonesonthenba Everyone always talks about lottery pick trading like it's just so easy to trade up and take whoever you want 😅

@Tjonesonthenba People are not realizing Ace was playing the 2 intentionally as part of his development plan and bc of Jazz roster. But if jazz are truly modeling his development after KD and JT, he's always been a 3 long-term.

What's the very first quote from The Elder Scrolls that comes to your mind? Don't give it any more thought, just post it as a reply please. Very curious to see what it'll be!

Unintended consequences: Teams tank the play-in to become a top seed for the #1 pick. Hell, in a given year, maybe a 6th seed even tanks into & out of the play-in for the same reason. Wherever you draw the line, teams will try to cross it if the potential benefit is big enough.

DEVELOPING: The NBA is discussing creating a tournament among lottery teams to determine draft order in order to stop tanking. (via @ShamsCharania, h/t @flasportsbuzz)

@k_clayt @FollowingAlong8 I sort of think that Ja as a running mate has not been ideal for him, but he's always described as a reserved and authentic teammate. I think he will thrive with Lauri.

Starting to come around on this trade. They just got a 2-time All-Star with some playoff experience, and the best player they gave up is a rookie. Also gave up 3 firsts, but two are in a less valuable 2027 draft, and the other could be about anything. We'll see.

@SamJud_17 @k_clayt @hallsrh I brought up the protected draft pick at my weekly ball run and all the guys there were flummoxed. Had no idea about it.
