We begin the show talking new jerseys for the 40th anniversary of Utah Jazz basketball and the rumors surround Christmas Day jerseys. We discuss other news and notes surrounding media day, training camp, preseason, and more.
Next we analyze ESPN’s ranking of the Top 100 players for the coming year. We discuss if they got the Jazz players right and if the list gives us any insight into how the league shapes up.
Analytics are misunderstood. We try to explain the relevancy of them in life and sports. We use Derrick and Rudy as an example of how analytics give insight into efficiency and development.
We close the show with our Deep Dive of the week: Aaron Falk of UtahJazz.com covered an important event this week in which Deron Williams and Jerry Sloan make amends for previous wrongdoings and we get into all of the details!
