Following potential 2014 draftees

[Hantlers]

Parker just needs to be coached to be aggressive.

He has a great low-post game, and he's good at driving and getting fouls. Duke let him wander on the perimeter and jack up contested mid-range shots and 3's. That shouldn't be his game. He was under-utilized at Duke.

So now everyone but Mercer fans are eliminated from the Warren Buffet bracket challenge. And if you're a Mercer fan to begin with I doubt you have a chance to nail the other 31 first round picks!

Mercer was actually a fairly popular upset pick. A lot of people talked about how good Mercer was.

Mercer's coach really impressed me. His team ran good offensive sets that took advantage of Duke's weak team defense.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Probably impossible for him to slip past 4. I could see someone taking the risk on Exum over him, but doubt he would slip past 4.

4 might be enough.

Aaron Gordon shoots 85% in practice from the FT line.

Just has to get over FT line anxiety.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Aaron Gordon is intriguing. Definitely would feel sad if that's where we landed in lotto, but would get over it eventually if he really worked on his handles and lateral and hip movement so he could play SF.

I'll be pissed if Jazz draft another PF.

Scary question NBA teams will be asking: if Jabari Parker is too much of a liability to be on the court vs Mercer, what's gonna happen w/us?

Truth.

 

[fishonjazz]

Did I say where I would draft him?

Um, if you did say where you would draft him then orangello probably would not have asked you where you would draft him

 

[orangello]

Did I say where I would draft him?

Never implied anything. Was simply interested where you would draft that kind of a player.

 

[orangello]

So what you're saying is don't let Corbin get near him. Got it.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Um, if you did say where you would draft him then orangello probably would not have asked you where you would draft him

How dare he.

And how dare you.

 

[orangello]

This. I was simply intrigued about where you would draft that kind of a player.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

This. I was simply intrigued about where you would draft that kind of a player.

Probably take him 7th overall.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Probably take him 7th overall.

Assuming your first 6 is some order of:

Wiggins
Embiid
Parker
Exum
Randle
Smart

Then KA?

So KA above:

Vonleh
Gordon
Mcdermott
?

Interesting. Very interesting.

Only like 3.3% chose that upset.

Gordon out of the Top 6?

You smoking crack?

KA over McD isn't that crazy, imo.

 

[spycam1]

Won't be surprised if Parker stays, won't be surprised if he leaves.

Duke sucks *** though and is a study in how just shooting a ton of 3's isn't a good strategy.

More I see of Parker, the less I feel like he is a guaranteed All-Star. I'd for sure take a risk on Embiid and his back than take Parker 2nd overall.

It's so hard to say. Do we know **** about what is actually wrong with his back?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

It's so hard to say. Do we know **** about what is actually wrong with his back?

I think his back hurts tbh.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I'd take the risk of his back not being that bad to taking the risk of Parker ever being able to guard anyone.

Missing alot of this conversation, but are you guys talking about KA over Gordon?
