With Fisher and some of the other contracts they've got, it's going to be difficult to make this team any better except through the draft in the coming years.

If everyone stays healthy I really think that the Jazz are a lock for the playoffs. I don't think they're a second round playoff team but they'll be a 6-7-8 seed for sure.
With Fisher and Harpring's 4 year contracts, the Jazz are pretty much locked into this team for the next 4 years. So they have 4 years to hope that Deron, Brewer or CJ Miles develop and they can have a pretty legit starting 5. If it doesn't work, after 4 years the only deals that will still be on the books are Deron and AK (and likely Brewer). If you ask me, that is still a pretty solid nucleus to build around.
