2017 Annual JazzFanz Current Players NBA Draft

[fishonjazz]

I'm as high on Exum as anyone but I though for sure embiid would slip to us that draft. Imagine Gobert playing next to Embiid next season. That rim would be closed for business on defense and they would work perfectly together on offense.

I really really hoped he would fall to the jazz too. I would have taken him ahead of Jabari for sure and maybe before wiggins (I was extremely high on wiggins. Overrated him by a bunch)

Defense is more than blocks and rebounds.

I think he is a great defender.

 

[fishonjazz]

Nobody is calling him that.

People are jumping my **** for saying I think he will be a top 3 center in the league though for some reason.

Embid has played 31/246 possible games in his career...

Why isn't it my turn yet? Feels like I picked months ago.

Availability is the best ability.

Drafting him now is like drafting Oden after he played great that one season where he played w/ relative health.

I acknowledged that in my post.
Fwiw his 2 point percentage is poor for a center as well.

That's very fair. Dude misses some gimmes.

A fairly fair assessment but again, like Ron and I have both stated, the Sixers shut him down when he was basically fine.

 

[RandyForRubio]

As for him being a ball hog, who else on that team should be shooting more?

 

[Miggs]

No, he got injured.

Nope.

If I wanted to jump your dick, I would've tried when I was out in Utahr.

Agreed. Why I totally used the word maybe rather than proclaiming it as fact.

He does shoot a lot though. For whatever reason.

Crazy that people think a meniscus tear is nothing

Yeah, idk why ppl are saying he didn't get hurt.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I'm sure they were being cautious and he might have been able to return if they had to have him, but it just further proves how injury prone he is.

No matter how much they try to rehab and rest, the dude is made of glass.

I hope he can stay healthy tho. A truly special talent.

It was a minor tear that needed them to just go in and clean it out. The Sixers decided to wait six weeks and have it performed. They could have done it earlier had they wanted him to return last season but knew they didn't and could go into tank mode again.
