I totally agree. He's usually pretty fair, though. The UNC stuff is mind blowing. So the NCAA says the it's none of their business because it's an internal academics thing .. holy ****!

I'm not saying the Jazz will pursue FAs. I think the Jazz should stay in a position to counter punch and benefit from other teams pursuing FAs. Teams who think they can get a FA may send us a player and a sweetner to clear cap room.
I spoke with Andrew Harrison yesterday, for first time.
Speaks like a professor and is edgy at the same time.
He's not interested in scoring though he knows he can put up 30 if his team needs him to.
I asked if he's not concerned with scoring, what kind of assists is he shooting for.. He said, no goals, whatsoever, but to dominate every game and have an undefeated season.
Kid is special. Going to love watching he and his brother along with James Young sharing a backcourt next year.

Interesting.. Mine's still Burke and GRIII.
Though I think Burke is only reachable if they don't make a deep run in the tournament. If we miss out on both Bledsoe and Burke I'd be gutted. Like it'll take me a decent holiday overseas to get over it.
Otto Porter. If you don't see how great he is you are all clowns.
We're all trying to be realistic as to where we're picking, is all.
He is realistic. Projected as a late lottery pick. Clown.

Jazz might still get Bledsoe, but right now I think they have a decent chance at getting Burke. You are right Michigan needs an early exit out of the tournament for them to have a chance at getting him. I honestly think Smart is more of a shooting-guard combo type player like Tyreke Evans and James Harden. If I could pick who the Jazz got in the the draft realistically, I would want them to get Carter-Williams or Burke, preferably Carter-Williams, but Burke would be an awesome pick too.
How do you think his offensive game would fit with the Jazz? I've seen him a few times and he's good but kind of unconventional.
He's #15 on DraftEx, but #8 on Ford's big board.
Let's say we get #17 and #22 for GSW and our own pick - how are we anywhere near Otto's range exactly?
Yes, no, don't like Smart - reminds me too much of Tyreke who was drafted to play the PG as well, and we all know how that turned out.
Burke has really grown on me, he seems to be able to do everything well except finishing at the rim. But if he can get that floater down, I think he'd be unstoppable.
17 is pretty close to 15. Warriors are alling out of the playoffs too, so it will be more like 14 and 22.
You've heard they might be getting Eric Gordon right?
Plus we need the GSW pick to grab Burke.
Yeah, Eric Gordon has done wonders to the team's records he has been on.
Porter > Burke

This is true, but the Jazz won't be in a position to draft Otto Porter, as much as I like him it's just not realistic.
He does everything on the court pretty well besides creating his own offense.
