My bid for Joel Embiid

[fishonjazz]

IMO he is basically Roy Hibbert with borderline Ibaka athleticism. I know the Ibaka comp is a stretch, but he really is a great great athlete for someone his size. Lets trade everyone we've got and play him at 1-5.

I prefer saying he is like ibaka but taller.

Leave hibberts name out of it please

He has more offensive potential than either Ibaka or Hibbert IMO. Considering his age and experience, his footwork is pretty advanced.

Trade the entire roster for Embiid and if he busts then Jahlil Okafor.

The league was also a lot different back then. I bet the Jazz could find better complimentary pieces in FA today than they could back then.

Sure couldn't find anyone to add to the Deron, Boozer, Memo, AK team.
Wait, I take that back...we added Derek "Please release me from my contract so I can be closer to my family" Fisher.

What exactly are you advocating? It seems as though you're saying the Jazz should neither do whatever necessary to get superstar-caliber talent nor collect a bunch of all-star/borderline all-star talent. Should they try to build a championship team with bad players?
