What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

Nonsense. That's not what people were arguing. They were acting like the last 30 seconds of the UNC game determined that he couldn't rebound.

Would you pass on a Draymond Green because he was an avg rebounder? Would you pass on green if he missed one rebound in the last 30 seconds of his last NCAA game?

It'd something I would have to think about. It's part of who he is as a prospect.
 
Jordan Bell is a great defender and an average (at best) rebounder. He's limited offensively. Took me awhile, but I definitely hope he's picked by the Jazz at 30. He hustles and works his *** off. Gives everything he has for his team. Take a guy like that and have him work with Alex Jenkins. He'll get better at rebounding. He'll get better at shooting. Still wish the Jazz would have pushed harder for Chip Engelland. I think he'd fix a lot of problems in Utah.
 
There's easily 15 guys that I'd be extremely happy with at #24 and #30. Jordan Bell and Tyler Lydon are both on that list. I actually think that the Jazz are really good at picking in this range of the draft. I have a lot of confidence that they'll get two solid players with those picks.
 
He was a top rebounder in the PAC averaging 8.9 or game.

With gobert at center, are we really worried about the rebounding ability of our 4? We rolled with Diaw as our starting 4 this year. Diaw. Draft bell and he'd instantly be our best rebounding 4. And it wouldn't be close. I'm sure quinn could teach him how to box out better if that's an actual concern for some of you

Even at #42 and #55 there are guys I really like. I might actually trade 24 or 30 and keep the other picks on the roster.

Shooting is a bigger concern... if he can't shoot it will be tough to play Gobert and Bell together.

I really like the guy... I'd take him with either first rounder... just think he has some limitations... if he didn't he'd be picked in the lotto.
 
Looking at it, I'm hoping the Jazz take a flyer on Jonathan Jeanne in the 2nd round somewhere. Just saw that DX put him in their mock draft to the Spurs. I think there's a decent chance that he gets picked by someone and stashed somewhere while they sort out his medical. I'd be more than happy for the Jazz to take that chance.
 
Naw man, even if he didn't have a disease he looked like death walking. Not NBA material.

Agree... he was already a high likelihood of bust guy... add this and I'm out.
