Game(s) THREAD - UK vs. MichSt @ 5:30mst ESPN and KU vs. Duke @ 7:30mst ESPN

[8]

Don't understand the knocks on Parker's athleticism. A few times he has taken the ball, accelerated past the defense, going coast to coast, and scored. His elevation on his jumper? Looks awesome to me. At the very worst he's Danny granger or Kawai Leonard.

Let's hope that Bill Corbin plays Wiggins. He spent way too much time on the bench.

I don't think people knock Parker's athleticism that much. That is just the only area in which Wiggins holds an advantage over him.

 

[The Midnight]

A lineup of Burke, Hayward, Parker, Kanter, and Favors looks solid. Excellent spacing potential

He's the best fit, no doubt.


Unless Randle can play SF fulltime, then I'm still going with him.

I have no issue with his athleticism. I actually think it helps that he is not a jump out of the gym type of player. If he can succeed without that then he will have a long, great career.

If you have the chance at a sure thing you take it. You draft on potential only if that is your only option.

 

[Dr. Jones]

I'll answer this.

You trade Kanter and the GSW pick (maybe another pick) to Boston for Rondo.

Rondo, Hayward, Parker, Favors and Gobert is a team with the potential to have high killer instinct.

Maybe we could sign a hockey player to guard curry when we play them in a couple weeks.

To be fair to Wiggins.. his athleticism is unworldly.. like totally.

 

[The Thriller]

I want another lotto pick.

This.

We really need new blood for this franchise.

Wasn't he a hurdler?

 

[orangello]

no inside scoring.. nope.

Hayward and Jabari will spread the floor and Rondo will find Favors/Gobert for easy baskets at the rim.

Parker just out-Jeremy Evans'd Jeremy Evans with that oop.

 

[orangello]

no inside scoring.. nope.

Also, Favors is slowly developing somewhat of an inside scoring game.

I want Parker on the jazz so bad.

Imagine the lineup of Burke, Hayward, Parker, favors and kanter next year. We would be awesome. A bench of Neto, gobert, burks and a couple more draft picks will round out a team with huge potential.

So you're going to dominate NBA teams with Hayward and Parker outscoring them? Nope.

Also, Favors is slowly developing somewhat of an inside scoring game.

Key word is slowly.. which can also be translated outside of Utah fans as "never."
