Following Potential 2018 Draftees

[whatthe]

Perrin initially said during the workout that Troy needs to improve his shooting.

Ah I see smoke. He is a good shooter compared to you and me.

Melton is a good sleeper pick. I'm wondering how the Jazz have him ranked vs Okogie. Walt said in the broadcast that they thought Okogie was a good shooter.

Walt said he shot well at the Hoop Summit.

I think the Spurs take Huerter, of all the guys i see getting love here I think it's Okobo who is most likely to still be on the clock at #21

I'm think the Spurs may take him too. Maybe they would be willing to swap picks with us if we threw in Tony Bradley.

 

[NUMBERICA]

I don't know if I'd throw assets to move up for Huerter. I also love The Big Ragu.

Then again, I give 0 ****s about Bradley.

So here's where I stand with the prospects in our area...

I'd be extremely happy if we drafted: Zhaire Smith, Lonnie Walker, Elie Okobo or Donte DiVincenzo
I'd be pleased if we drafted: KBD or Huerter
I could probably talk myself into (although it would take some work to accept a few of them lol): Simons, Musa, Okogie, Frazier, Evans, Hutchison, Khyri Thomas, Grayson Allen, Melton
I hope we avoid (For various reasons. Some I don't think are good fits. Some I don't think are good value. Some are both): Troy Brown, Jerome Robinson, Aaron Holiday, Robert Williams, Mitchell Robinson, Jalen Brunson, Jevon Carter

Okogie much better shooter than Melton. Bigger, longer, stronger.

 

[Game6Conley]

Melton is an unconventional combo guard and Okogie is a swingman.

 

[seattlejazzfan]

Not surprised- Bagley just wants to get after it.

avoid robert williams?! are you aware favors could walk this summer? he'll be long gone but c'mon now.

Thinking it over today --- I think the Jazz want to trade down and the real target is Mel. Fraz.

He cannot shoot at all. That pick wouldn't make any sense at all, unless the plan is to package him for a trade.

Had the Jazz traded down recently?

 

[zyzz]

That's a bit harsher than what he said on the pod. He said some prospects (more likely their agents) want to avoid Sac. He didn't explicitly said Luka doesn't want to go there. He did say that Luka's camp withheld medical from them though.

Yes. We don't need an undersized center who can't stretch the floor.

No comments from anyone tied to the Jazz organization make me suspicious. Plus Quinn loves the defense. Why not get the best wing/guard defender.

I think the Jazz would pass on him even if he fell to 21.

 

[Game6Conley]

Givony says he thinks the Knicks prefer Sexton over Trae Young.. and that Young had a bad workout for them...

 

[Game6Conley]

He wants to be a respectable rap artist too and tour during offseasons lol.
