I’m honestly really stoked with this season as a fan; and this is coming from someone who, as my avatar suggests, was on the Tank For Wemby train early on.

 

I don’t think anybody expected the rookies, Kessler and Agbaji, to be as good as they have been this season, let alone this good this soon. The team has also shown a gritty resilience that I don’t think anybody expected either, even after gutting the rotation at the trade deadline and enduring injuries to key players. They’re finding ways to win when they have no business winning. Look at just the record and it’s easy to assume there’s too much driven by stagnant veterans, but that isn’t the case; a young team is pulling this off, which is very encouraging. They are more poised and matured than expected at this stage of thier growth.

 

It’s true that the price of this is likely going to be no Wembanyama, but the encouragement of seeing the Jazz be so far along so quick is a trade off I’m fine with. Let’s not forget the Jazz will likely wind up with two top 20 - possibly two top 15 - picks this coming draft. There’s still great opportunities to add talent with where they’ll land. 
 

It may be the stark contrast of last year’s team being so grating and deeply frustrating to root for, but this team and where they’re headed has me absolutely excited. It’s been a while since I’ve been this optimistic about the Jazz and thier future.

100% agree with you. Who would have thought that this season would have been more fun and entertaining than last year? 

It sucks that DM's ego got so big, that he couldn't waste an ounce of energy on defense, and that the team just fell apart (Should've kept Ingles).

Here's to hoping the wizard Danny Ainge can use all these picks to get a few big pieces!

The Jazz can't figure out if they want to go for the playoffs play-in, or if they want to increase their lottery odds. 

Joke all year has been that we're so bad we can't lose when we try.

Bittersweet and confusing season so far.

Ainge is a miracle worker/should be convicted for grand theft. What he got for Gobert is criminal

Can't wait for this. Maybe I can get my kids to take an interest, and that carries over to actual basketball

Agreed. White on black looks better. I don't like the stripes on the black jerseys.

The blue side of this jersey, or something similar. Would have to match the stripes, etc., but the royal with black would look so good with their royal helmet. I'm aware this is not the same shade of royal

White numbers on black is far more contrast (in fact, the most contrast) than black numbers on blue.  The numbers on the black jersey probably aren't blue for a reason.

Pretty sure that would create huge contrast issues. 

Right, but no more than what they have on their black jerseys. They need more white on those

BYU announced updated blackout uniforms for Shamrock Series game vs Notre Dame. I’m a fan of BYU’s traditional uniforms, so not a fan of the gradient helmet. But at least they’re not using the inverted colored logo (white oval, blue Y) they normally use with their blue helmets.

I was hoping for a royal jersey with black numbers
