What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

No. Fox would be a slightly better prospect if he were built like predraft John Wall. Probably predraft Westbrook too..


On Russy's DX page it says

best case - Leandro Barbosa
worst case - Shannon Brown

lol

I said size, didn't I? Isn't he like 6'4 with a 6'9 wingspan off the top of my head?
 
Lol. Of course PG came back after all of this. Never fails.

I did think you could last a little longer away from here little buddy! Maybe someday you'll follow through on your promises.
Were you going too add to the discussion or is this gibberish all you're bringing to the table?

Had your hopes up? Good. I come and go as I please, as always. When I finally do blow this popsicle stand it'll be final, maybe.

There will be no warning or explanation; just silence from my end, while the mindless-chatter, squabbles and petty differences that define Jazzfanz continue.

Y'all should thank me for my posts here anyway, I play the role of King Kong swatting down paper-airplane-thin opinions casted by posters who obviously pay very little attention to the amateur basketball scene (and yet still try to hold dominion over the conversation).

I've certainly learned a lesson in my time here which is; that unequivocally you should be inauthentic guarded and conniving to people. I've always associated many of these behaviors with being a sociopath but as I age I've come to realize this behavior is seen more as some sort of defense mechanism/survival instinct and is actually seen as behavior of a responsible adult (Sorta like how getting drunk and driving home is how many "responsible adults" have fun).. The whole concept is very foreign to me because I always pulled chicks and acheived things being myself, thats simply not the reality for most tho, that's how i believe en masse these common, fairly obsolete, behaviors come to pass.. They're concessions of the weak...

A lesson that can be summed up in this 20-minute TED talk;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zpf8H_Dd40





Possibly I'll return for self-amusement to talk **** and drop one-liners and point out the wasted opportunities of the F/O, but not for any actual interaction with the few posters(portraying several posters) here on JFC.... I didn't come here to make friends and I'm not gonna miss anyone when I'm gone, I joined for some topical banter and to gain perspective, which I've achieved long ago. My days here are numbered, I've already outlined how I'm gonna process of eliminate down to a new team, definitely wont be sharing that here tho. I'll be going to root for a mystery team as far as JFC is concerned. My legend will certainly live on here anyways.

I'm out for real this time, the big difference being I no longer consider myself a jazz fan anymore. This seasons team is most certainly a lame ****ing duck, just re-watch the last few games... I've seen 95% of the games since Kanter's rookie year but I'm most certainly finished

Normally I would say “Auf wiedersehen,” but since what “auf wiedersehen” actually means is “till I see you again,” and since I never wish to see you again, to you, sir, I say goodbye.

We all know that you could never leave without telling us. You want us to beg, you want to feel wanted, to feel important...even if it is just in this isolated squadron of the internet. Anyways, until your next goodbye, and next return, and rinse and repeat, I bid you adieu, *******.
 
I had a little time on my hands and decided to fact check [MENTION=2408]PG_AB[/MENTION].

what do you think about packaging our current wing players, with draft picks. to hand pick in the top 10? IE Hayward S+T + our draft pick(s)+ other replacable assets for Vonleh or Young
Tobias Harris is from down the block... i love that kid, hes a worthy project. but i think is a bit redundant with Gordo. i prefer an Iso Defender 3
i endorsed trading millsap for ekpe udoh, tobias harris and deron lamb in the thread right after the deadline
ive already discussed my trade up targets especially Poythress and Austin. heres a scenario for Shabazz
Lets say Millsap S+T + the 2 first rounders for sake of ease, in return for the rights to draft:

shabazz_muhammad.jpg


I REALLY REALLY REALLY like BURKS/MUHAMMAD starting back-court Hay can play 6thman 2/3 thats the roto, you can give them all 30+ mins...
now im biased with lefties i literally put like a 5% higher bell curve for lefties, ima lefty, ive played sports. when your lefty and can start from the top corner of the right wing, and you can drive left, and if no one can stop you, without sending help.... watch out... thats why ive said repeatedly over and over Crafty Lefty like harden
i could go on i want to see what you guys think of this though, shabazz seems like a defense breaker to me, i have him #1 overall
I said trade Hayward for Dennis the menace, not "a draft pick" in my eyes hes a Starting PG, not a prospect.

i fear a wes mathews situation is inevitable if we go into next offseason with both Favors and Gordon on qualifying offers, other teams are gonna drive the price up on us, on purpose. id rather return value back to the jazz NOW in the form of a 19 year old point guard

other teams can't drive up the price on an extension... And Wes Matthews situation was different, we had a bunch of guys under contract, and he is not as good of a player as either Favors or Hayward will be. He had pretty much reached his peak that year, as he has not gotten much better than that.

As for trading Hayward for Schroeder, right now Schroe is a prospect, and at best an unproven one. He might be good, but you simply don't trade a guy in Hayward who has proven All Star potential, for a guy who has not played an NBA minute, unless you are getting a sure fire guy that will be great. Hayward is a guy you should be trading for a very good player or not trade him at all.

Props to [MENTION=2036]b_line[/MENTION] for this post.

Giannis Vs Serge Ibaka (#24 pick)... go

i think honestly this is what worries me about adetokunbo for some reason. Ibaka looked way better to me, and less of a project.

i like adetokunbo though he can really run, i will not complain about Giannis if we pick him. Al Farooq Aminu is better. Giannis is really young for this draft though, not a bad pick to stash either

Rev hes a nice fit here in utah, if we select him with the #3 pick, i say its Gordon Hayward over Paul George all over again

Otto v. Shabazz

shabazz is the #2 player on my board, behind Len. i know thats far off consensus these days, i plan to be correct though.

me thinks otto has some bust potential, i wouldent touch hiim at 3 or 8, maybe 10-12

also i believe Shabazz Muhammad will command a double team in the NBA, does anyone think that of Otto?

I literally went through just half of his posts in the 2013 draft thread. It was extremely hard to find some of these gems because he went back and edited almost 2/3 of his posts because he was ashamed of them. I had to physically go to the posts and look for replies by other members that had the original quote. Check this link out and see for yourself:

https://jazzfanz.com/search.php?searchid=2200679&pp=&page=13

He claimed in the same thread that he posted with 85% accuracy and in this thread he said he wondered why there wasn't any "PG_AB for GM" threads around here. Well buddy.. This is exactly why.

Why go back and edit all of your posts if you are so good at this stuff?

I literally only went through half of his posts from one thread. Who knows what I would find by going through the 2014-2016 draft threads and looked at all of his posts. I don't have the time but I think my point has been made.

[MENTION=2408]PG_AB[/MENTION], you are a huge contribution to the draft threads but your track record sucks and sucks bad. Stop with the better than thou attitude and stop with all of the bragging.

Lonzo Ball's youngest brother LaMelo dropped 92 points last night. 30-39 from 2 and 7-22 from three. LiAngelo is resting for the playoffs. They won 146-123. That's a lot of ****ing points to score. Lonzo and LaMelo are going to be stars.

No he wont. Go watch highlights from that game, he just cherry picked nearly the entire game. It was a constant 4 on 5 for both teams. One would score then they'd do a full court pass and shoot. Wash rinse repeat. It's hilarious how bad it was, like shooting running 30 foot floaters at times bad. Not saying he sucks, but I dont see him being nearly as mature as Lonzo, of course he has a lot of time to grow up, but he plays more like Austin Rivers than his brother.

I did some fact checking on your posts and this is what I came up with. Not from 4 years ago just the other day.

Since when do they review shot clock violations?


Sent from my iPhone using JazzFanz

What the **** do you know? :cool: This is the person trying to hold my feet to the fire? Someone who doesn't even know the rules of the game..

Prediction; When I leave, DX will turn into the word of god in these threads.. Opinions will be formed from other peoples opinions, not from actually watching the games.. Wanna know why I'm certain this is true?? Because there's no one here (other than me) who seems to really watch the games and post about it consistently...

How many times do I spot 10 -15 things in a day's action and I come to this thread, to share, and there's not a word about it????Y'all cover what ESPN and DX covers and little more. I seem to follow the doings on the west coast more than any of our west coast contributors in this thread.. It's simply because y'all lack passion compared to me, or are too busy with other distractions watching pornos or glancing at your smartphones 1,000,000 times a day or whatever it is you prefer to do over genuinely scouring the landscape of college ball..

It's abundantly clear you would prefer the status quo over someone like me who's often correct in pointing out flaws in the consensus. Blissful ignorance reigns supreme here, thats the golden rule of JFC -- Not saying that isn't completely appropriate for a loser franchise btw, doesn't make it 'right' tho..

Is that a a proper sampling of my comments from the 2013 thread?? of course not. no mention of the 100 assholes arguing with me about Trey Burke being the next chris paul and the near unanimously held belief here that he was a worthy lottery pick? What about the posts where I said I'd take Rudy with the 14th pick? and that Tim Hardaway Jr was actually the best prospect on Michigan (correct)? That Karasev wasn't 1st rd material.. what about my insistence that Schroder was the top PG in the draft?

I thought Pierre Jackson was gonna be a steal in the 2nd but he's had devastating injury after devastating injury -- I guess thats 'my fault' too right?

Just ask yourself; What type of standards is PG_AB being held to here, in a field thats an inexact science?? The Harrison Barnes thread should have 20 people eating crow in it but my 4 year old opinions are the topic here today, not today's games

.. This thread should ultimately be about us picking apart consensus opinions, instead posters here try to pick apart the users who have an opinion aka me (((the only poster in this thread who consistently and correctly goes after DX's opinions:D))), usually in the form of mentioning some worthy candidate unmentioned on their various rankings. (Like when I was just saying Justin Patton is a lottery pick this year! beat them to it by like 2 updates.)

The reason is because these coddled spoon-fed grudge-holding lames take **** too personally. When I said Trey Burke wasn't that good and was overrated because of NPOY, people took it personal here. When I said Aaron Gordon's shooting mechanics were infact broken, people took it personal here. And now y'all some scorned bitches just a few years later, surprised? I'm not, THATS JUST HOW KNICKS FANS ACT TOO.

I went back and edited the stuff knowing that semantics warriors such as yourself would claim I'm avoiding a true refutation. I always knew yall suckers weren't deserving of that type of satisfaction though, I deleted so many spot on predictions but you can choose to believe otherwise, I invite it... the mind works like that, you fill in your own blanks, and when it comes to me here on this forum, the blanks are often filled with something negative -- glad to have forced that association upon so many here. Surely, if my posts weren't potent that'd have never occured.

The sons have been encouraged to chuck their entire lives with the plan to scale it down once they hit college, LaVarr (and I've been convinced) it's gonna pay dividends down the line... The crux of it is to remove any hesitation when pulling up.. It's certainly the type of thing that's inspired a great deal of confidence seen in all the brothers..

It's one of the many reasons why LaVarr is really a noteworthy parent in the time I've been checking in on amatuer basketball.

Did you read any of the quotes that I posted? You were horribly wrong about that draft. You edited a **** ton of your posts in that thread and none of them were good posts. It's fine though keep living in your fantasy world.
 
Does PKM need to come and take you down a notch again?

JFCers will be sad to hear this but; I've already (THOROUGHLY) won this game of life and I did it my way, I didnt pull it off by listen to mommy or daddy or my teachers or some religion, In fact I told those people I could do it without them, and I did... If I die tomorrow I'd leave a happy fella (only regret would be missing the look on my drug addict sisters face when she realizes she gets nothing). You are interacting with a champion of the less fortunate, I represent the undesirables; the HS dropouts, families of cyclical abuse, juvenile delinquents and group home kids, and I'm the cream of the crop of that group here in NY... I'd say one of the best to do it since 50 Cent:cool:, you should feel honored i've taken the time from my schedule to interact with you here on this message board about such a trivial hobby.

There's no taking me down a notch on the internet, you're talking to someone who's effectively executed their dreams in reality and don't forget it. I didn't concede a modicum of dignity to pull it off either.

The biggie smalls lyric "Considered a fool because I dropped out of high school" is tailor-made for my story. Yet, I could pretty much retire right now at 29 and travel the world for the rest of my days if i wanted -- and did it all on my own accord, no one gave me a nickel, same deal as my pops who was out of his house at 15(I've long surpassed his accomplishments tho).. These pansy *** sheltered people reading this on the forum would never hold their kids to the standards I hold myself, I certainly wouldn't If I had kids... Just started my 2nd successful business, Everywhere I go I get compliments, I hate it, I'll never be good at taking compliments. People want me to write a book or a movie(and have been telling me that since im a teenager).

Thats why when it comes to scapegoats, I'm pretty much an expert. Called it a mile away with Harrison Barnes.

Reminder; I'll certainly do much more good for this planet than many of the selfish folks here acting like territorial animals (you know, the ones rooting for "MY TEAM" me me me me me me me me me) harassing me in these threads.. and I do take solace in that.. which may seem petty to you, but you don't seem to understand that I could be out doing all sorts of things that dudes in their 20's do, instead I'd rather plan for the future tho. A NYPD Sergeant raped a 13 year old girl the other day, but I'm a bad guy because I speak my mind on the internet about basketball players.. GTFO.. I've got a plan to start a NPO by the time I'm 35, thats my next big project, something to help out kids in 3rd world countries. My plan was always to make a bunch of $$ so I could give it away, thats why Ozymandias in Watchmen is one of my all-time favorite villains -- thats my plan and If I die tomorrow it's complete!!

The same person y'all choose to try and run out of this thread and forum over and over, is a genuinely good guy with good intentions, who also just so happens to bring by far the most heat to this thread.. If I trumpeted the political party and religion you adhere to, you'd certainly think differently of me but thats just how flimsy people seem to be here.. I write up these paragraphs with a smile, knowing that a bunch of ingrates, probably ones spoiled rotten by their parents, who wouldn't know real drama if it kicked them in the balls are reading.

I really do hope that sorta talking down "jazzfanz style communication aka childish" king of the sandbox thing that people do around here gives them great satisfaction, like a puppy receiving a pat on the head. seriously, I mean it's a total waste of time but if you're convinced it's making you happy or smile, then it serves some function in a placebo effect type of way... The fact of the matter is I don't believe that's whats going on, it's more conniving than that - just some loser devs here who probably heard that Howard Stern came to power by saying shocking things so the mindset of "Step 1;bring anguish to our members step2 be nice enough so they'll come back step3 WAIT FOR MASSIVE AD REVENUES TO ROLL IN [LOL]" was adopted, to incite emotion and also to fluff up the post count to make it seem like there's really lots more content being posted here from various sources than It actually is) . Then make the aliases seem like 'a part of jazzfanz character' like it's some redeeming quality, even tho this **** is rampant on the internet -- especially since facebook stole forums clicks away....

In conclusion; JFC as a whole is vastly more full of **** than me.

You don't own a business dude. If you did you wouldn't spend 20 hours of the day talking about teenage boys playing basketball. You're all talk. You come off as the dude who lives in his parents basement watching college basketball games and talking to yourself.

You want people to beg you to stay and tell you about how smart you are. You have thrown multiple fits and threatened to leave but guess what? You're right back here. You need this place to feel good about yourself. That's fine you do a good job until you start acting like you're better than any of us because you have free time to watch college basketball. I'm sorry I have a full-time job and go to college full-time. It's called having a life.

Really curious to see how LiAngelo does his first year at UCLA. They will lose a lot of players and he won't have the same loaded team (though still a very talented one) that Lonzo had.

And do you know how Melo's physical growth timeline compares to Angelo and Lonzo?

Yeah, you're right. What kind of ******** is that? Where's the competitive spirit? How are they not scoring every time when it's 4 on 5. Makes me so mad watching that. What kind of talent are they playing against.
