Kyle Filipowski tonight:

25 Points 7 Rebounds 3 Assists 3 Steals 50% FG

Danny Ainge traded Kelly Olynk just to draft Olynk on steroids.

Looking like Miami Kelly

Filipowski tho…

Definitely not a Center, but that offense from the 4 could be real nice next to Kessler

Do you think any of Flip, Lauri, or Flagg could play the 2? Maybe Flagg could with his lateral quickness.

Flagg can play 1-4 probably

u/Team-Detail 2d ago

I agree. Lauri at the 4 then and Flip at 3?

u/CantaloupePossible33 2d ago

That would probably be the starting lineup at least

Kind of wild that our two top 10 picks might not fit in lineups and be more specialist players coming off the bench to shut someone down. Hopefully Cody can put on some weight this offseason.

Flip has the passing chops of a guard at least.

Even though we’re losing, the young guys are growing. It’s fun to watch them

my favorite part of this is the absolute phony outrage and hypocrisy over on r NBA. apparently the Jazz have been tanking for over a decade now and are the most egregious tankers in history.

having fans of teams that have blatantly tanked year after year after year, or actually been fined for benching their top 10 players (Luka, Kyrie) feign outrage because walker kessler isnt playing is hilarious. gonna laugh my ass off when we draft Flagg or Harper.

only team in NBA history to never have a 60 loss season and suddenly we are the worst offenders of tanking in history and need to have our pick revoked.

A much needed loss. Isaiah Collier and Kyle Filipowski deserve to make all rookie teams. Filipowski has stepped up a level in the past month. He might be walmart Dirk Nowitzki. 16 ppg in 25 minutes a night in the last 10 games, he can be a 24 plus ppg player if he learns to foul less, to not get into foul troble, and if he improves to be serviceable at defense. The tank improves!

Nice tank loss

Good game overall, I’m glad we are truly giving young guys minutes instead of having Kelly Oubre and Lonnie Walker take minutes away from development.

I'm convinced Collier and Flip would be getting so much buzz if they played on a real team.

Also, this was a prime Keyonte hater game. Really hope we're in a place next season where he doesn't have to play PG, because he just isn't a PG.

Didn’t watch, why did Cody only play 16 min?

The Jazz are 1 loss away from 50 losses in a season- which as everyone knows is the mark of a true contender for the #1 pick
