Probably because it's easier to make deals with people that they like.
If you've got to resort to that argument then it's not a fair deal.

Yup. Heyhey is right after me, and he's still on the clock.
I would have if you could have guaranteed me Moses Malone and James Worthy were going to be there.
Alright bro, I'll approve it do whatever makes you feel happy man, I just thought you could have gotten more.
Thanks bro, I appreciate your concern. I just think this is fair if you look at the players. If you were down to two or three guys at 25 and one of the guys you were considering there fell to 40. You get him and upgrade from 74 to 64. It's a win-win for both of us.
addictionary is on the clock!

Nice pick HeyHey.

With the 51st pick in the draft thee jazz fan selects...
Paul George pick 51. Thee jazz fan.
Awards and honors
2-time NBA All-Star selection: 2013, 2014
2-time All-NBA selection:
Third team: 2013, 2014
2-time NBA All-Defensive selection:
First Team: 2014
Second Team: 2013
NBA Most Improved Player: 2013
NBA All-Rookie Second Team: 2011
George has been in the league 4 years now. *Jazz fans will always view him as the one that got away. Though Hayward was well worth the 9th pick 4 years ago, he's not a franchise changer, George is, and proved it as he had his breakout year this last year in guiding the pacers to the ECF vs the heat and LBJ.
Paul had his best season posting a nice stat line: 21/6/3 line. He brings length shooting athletic ability, and is a lockdown defender. George has no problem guarding positions 1 through 3 *George also has nice handles and floor game, and willing passer and team player, he will have no problem fitting in with the players I already have.
Guys I'm looking to move up from #67 into the 5th round and willing to trade back my #93 pick, if you are keen please make an offer...
If I'm not mistaken, Indiana wanted Hayward more than they did George.

Are you sure?? I don't ever remember seeing Hayward's name anywhere near the top ten, but I could be wrong.
Fwiw, DraftExpress (who is very good) had Hayward at #8 to the Clippers in their final mock draft.
Addictionary is up, but I don't think he's up yet

Sorry. No sleep. Terrible night at emergency but turned out ok.
I pick Shawn Kemp for my 53rd.

UPDATED:
Shawn Kemp is one of the flashiest and most by definiton power forwards there is. His years with Payton served him an amazing career of dominance over the game in some aspects, led by power, agility, leap and major major major explosion. This guy could make you jump of your couch and bump your head to the lamb out of excitement.
His reverse dunks are unforgettable. When it comes to dunks and showing of some dunkerness, he makes fun of the likes of Blake Griffin even today when asked. As much as I find a little exagerration in that, most of it is undeniable fact that if he went against Blake, he would make him quit playing basketball.
Measurements: 6-10, 230 lbs
Achievements: 6 time NBA Allstar, 3 times All NBA 2nd Team, 1994 Canada World Champ, Being Awesome
Stats: 14,6 ppg, 8,4 rpg, 1,2 bpg
Kemp and Payton led Sonics to a franchise record 64 wins in 94-95 season and became an unforgettable duo of the time. Same season, the season they've made the Finals, Jordan and the Bulls were coming off from the famous 72 win regular season record. They lost but not swept, took the Bulls 6 games, who had only lost 10 in 82 games. In that series, the Reignman averaged more than 23 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks against the Bulls.
I don't want to get into the specifics of his personal life and drug/alcohol usage, because I believe that enough people know how he was in his prime.
Alcohol and drugs are never good for anything. Stay away.

Jeffrey is up next for the 54th pick.
