Like am I supposed to believe Royce O'Neale is significantly better than THJ just because he's starting and playing 30+ minutes on the #1 seed in the West? He's not. He's just a role guy who fits in well with what the Jazz need from the position and their current roster construction. Generally most contenders have 2 stars, 1 high level starter, 1 middle of the road starter and 1 coattail rider role player in their starting 5.
All true. But we already have DFS and Kleber in O'Neale role. THJ is not even Bogdanovic as he scores less and can't create for himself. Conley is a legit quality two way player and Gobert/Mitchel are stars. This means basically two out of those three need to be upgraded.
