The Phoenix Suns might be the death of the super team as they flame out in the first round of the NBA playoffs and now take all the burden of being a team over the 2nd apron.   David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider takes a look at this and thinks it could be a bad trend for the Utah Jazz.When the Jazz traded Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell the feeling was the Rudy Gobert trade was the real fleecing by Danny Ainge and the Utah Jazz.  However, as time plays out it is looking more and more like the Anthony Edwards lead Minnesota Timberwolves won' be yielding great picks but the Cleveland Cavaliers might be on the verge of a big loss and the Donovan Mitchell trade may be the one that continues to yield the Jazz the great dividends.  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

Leif Thulin is joined by Richard Stayman (MavsDraft) discussing who the prospects are for the Jazz to select if within the top 4 of the NBA Draft. They then debate who is the pick if the Jazz and their 26 percent chance to do so, do land within the top 4. Leif and Richard also debate if the same prospects they like at 4 for the Jazz are also going to be available at 8. Is it better to have a lower pick in this draft? And who can accelerate the Jazz's chances to compete by being a steal at 29 or 32 with the 2nd and 3rd picks of the 2024 NBA Draft for the Utah Jazz?. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Leif Thulin breaks down the games of Rob Dillingham, Reed Sheppard, and Stephon Castle. Leif provides the pros and cons for the Jazz to select in the NBA Draft between that crop of guards. Then, he gives his takeaways from the NBA Playoffs Game 1's and how it is relevant to the Utah Jazz in how they can shape their team by learning from other teams. Leif gives a pitch that the Jazz must adopt a mindset of building a team with a lack redundancy per the ideas of Calvin Booth, the GM of the Nuggets. Lastly, Leif explains that the Orlando Magic may be a team for the Jazz to emulate to turn them from a lottery team into a Playoff team.  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Monopoly GO!
