One of the added benefits to social media is the ability for fans across the country to interact with each other. The Utah Jazz and their fans have one of the larger presences on Twitter, so I posted an all-time Jazz tier list for fans to make their best possible lineup.

I’m sure you’ve seen similar games floating around the internet. Basically, each player costs money, and you have $15 to build your starting five. You could take a player from each price section, or double up on better players, assuming you eat the cost elsewhere.

Utah Jazz: Building the best roster possible

My personal Jazz roster would be Malone, Maravich, Okur, Bogdanovic, and Clarkson. Malone is a top player ever, and I believe his game would translate well as a modern power forward. Okur and Bogdanovic would space the floor and add some shooting, and Pistol Pete is a do-all offensive player who can run the offense or pull up from deep, even if he never really played with an NBA three-point line. Finally, Jordan Clarkson is a steal at $1. If he’s cold, the offense can play around him, and if he’s hot, we all know he immediately becomes the offense.

It should be noted that I’m a younger Spurs fan, so I may not have the appreciation for the Jazz of the past like other fans might. That’s why I turned to the rest of you to see what you have to say. While I appreciate every response I got, some were certainly better than others. Some built the best all-time roster, some went era-specific, and some did not pay attention to the $15 budget.
