I think this draft more than any other will be BPA on every teams board. Drafting for need in this draft will only set you up to fail. On my mock there are some picks that duplicate certain teams strengths, but I dont think it matters much.
Wow, I actually think the opposite. I think there isn't much separation in ability between players, say #10-#25, so need will come into play more than the typical year.

We'll see. I took groups of 5-7 players and used need as the tiebreaker when predicting the picks. Which means I'll probably finish last.
Well Jesus did say "The First will be last, and the Last will be First".
So you'll be OK

So just for fun (or just because I have some sort of OCD) here are the Jazz picks for the contest. I did this totally on notepad so I'm hoping I didn't **** up. Apparently I'm not OCD enough to double check.
13 (I believe Jazzule is predicting a trade for the 13th in exchange for the 21st and probably absorbing Marion's contract)
*MCW (Jazzrule) 1
14
*Schroeder (PKM, Hotnickk, Cyrone, Colton, Rev9, MCT, Jazz4Ever, Hekate, Darkwing, Hack) 10
*Bazz (Jazzrule, Orangello, Spycam, A-Train, Nate) 5
*Adetokunbo (UGLI, Numberica, Deroncutt) 3
*Gobert (BTP, Thee Jazz Fan) 2
*Olynyk (Core4) 1
*Larkin (Tony) 1
*MCW (German Standard) 1
*McCollum (B-Line) 1
21
*Gobert (German Standard, B-Line, MCT, Hekate, Darkwing, Deroncutt) 6
*Nogueira (Spycam, A-Train, Jazz4Ever, Hack) 4
*Schroeder (Orangello, Core4, BTP) 3
*Franklin (PKM, Hotnickk) 2
*Larkin (Numberica, Nate) 2
*Plumlee (UGLI) 1
*Mitchell (Cyrone) 1
*Dieng (Colton) 1
*Withey (Tony) 1
*Crabee (Rev9) 1
*Goodwin (Thee Jazz Fan) 1
Total
Schroeder 13
Gobert 8
Bazz 5
Noguiera 4
Adetokunbo 3
Larkin 3
MCW 2
Franklin 2
Olynyk 1
McCollum 1
Plumlee 1
Mitchell 1
Dieng 1
Whitey 1
Crabee 1
Goodwin 1
24 people entered for a total of 48 picks.
Schroeder/Gobert is the consensus for this board. 4 people picked that combo, 3 of them (MCT/Hekate/Darwing) picking Schroder first, and BTP picking Gobert first
Both PKM and Nickkk have the same picks (Schroeder and Franklin)
Spycam, Orangello and A-Train picked Bazz and Nogueira
Both Jazz4Ever and Hack picked Schroeder and Noguiera
That's the only same combos as far as I can tell. This draft seems to have a ton of range, which was expected. 8 different players were picked for 14, and 11 were picked for 21. In addition, 8 different players at 21 only had one vote a piece.
I'll go out on a limb and say that if Tony's draft comes true for the draft it will easily be the most hated here.
On a personal note, I'm fine with most of the combos here. There are so many plusses and minuses with all the picks that I'm trying to look on the bright side of things.

So did I.
To be fair. We didn't know more than 10 green room invites when we had to submit it. and 2 hours after I sent mine, I regret taking Gobert at 14. Seems like he's evaluated differently by prefessionals. I just thought he's going between 16-20. And I was like: Everyone else the Jazz could be high on is gone, why not reach for Gobert?

I did not pick Bazz and Bebe. I picked Bazz and Schroeder.
I think someone who wants Karasev will trade up to #13. At the same time having Karasev, Hayward and Kanter on your S5 would attract Timberwolves-like racism scrutiny for sure

I still don't like MCW at all. He's got so many red flags that he is my second biggest bust in the draft.

I picked MCW/Gobert.
I know im the only one with MCW at 14, but something is telling me that McCollum will go early, Schröder will drop heavily (i have him at 24 or sth.) and the Jazz FO will take MCW cause he has more upside than Larkin. At least MCW has great size and good defense. You can repair "no shooting touch" and other experience kind of things. You cant repair size or arm length...
My dream though would be Bazz / Schröder or Gobert / Schröder but that will probably not happen at least Bazz / Schrö not.
