And you’re the guy that loves JHS… that’s like the JHS cult.

They are fine and I listened early in the season… but too positive and just too much content. Haven’t listened much the last few months.

I love No Ceilings. It wasnt a diss. They put out a ton of content w/ podcast and I like listening to them in the morning when Im working. I dont have to agree with everything someone says about the draft to like them.

And they arent really as in on JHS anymore.

They invented JHS

I have and will never care about someone liking a prospect first.

Ben Sheppard is a player I have a hard time on because the eye test says he's a lights out movement shooter who can rival the top shooters in the class, but he also shot 69% from the FT line on decent volume. He also looked incredible at the combine.

Some known sleepers and some deep sleepers here.

I still love Craig Porter Jr.

Leif maintains that he think Bilal is the guy.

He says he thinks it's between Hendricks and Bilal. Says a lot of guys in Utah love Hendricks, but he doesnt think he's the guy the dudes at the top want.

I think the thing im hoping for most from tomorrow night is to get either Bufkin or Wallace at 16 and Cam at 9. Basically i want dudes I like to drop like crazy. Hoping somehow a guy like Bilal or JHS goes way too early and pushes cam down to the jazz at 9 and same with Wallace or Bufkin (leaning Bufkin here but its really close) at 16.
Get a wing early (cam, hendricks, Walker, bilal i guess though that isn't ideal) and a point guard late.

People need to remember that basketball organizations are made up of a TON of scouts/executives/coaches. That's where these rumors come from. So when you hear "Utah likes X player" it's probably a scout/coach/executive at the lower rungs who is telling people that.

A draft dream I have is getting Bilal and Rupert

At 16 and 28? Nice. At 9/16? No thanks.

On the eve of thr draft, we have to thank the stars we don't have Cy as the final decision. We would have got GG or JHS at 9

Nba GMs would likely let us pick both guys at 9 cuz they feel bad we are wasting the pick.

They would let us take Rupert there too on top of the other two.

Wasserman’s latest mock has Whitmore falling to us at 9.

Jazz need #10 from Dallas, and they need to trade for it before the draft.

I would just absorb Bertans salary with 10 attached for 16 to be honest.

The issue is we dont have the win now youngish player they covet. We will see if someone else really gives them a starting quality wing/big to move up.

If I was in charge of drafting the Jazz would have won multiple rings by now.

Other teams may drive the price up higher than that. Its value will peak when Dallas is on the clock. Jazz need to get it early. There's too much talent available at that spot. If you're the team that wants Gradey Dick, Kobe Bufkin, Derek Lively or Bilal Coulibaly, you probably need that pick.
