i dont even know if i want to watch since i know the jazz will screw this up. i just pray that charmin ultra monroe gets picked before 9 so the jazz can't pick him.

this draft night could shape the future of this franchise. utah cant be content to just draft a player they think will be "solid" ....someone who ends up averaging 12/8 for several years. they need to take a risk and pick guys with upside in this draft. we know this franchise is content with the "solid" players, winning 50 games and making the playoffs every year.

the thunder got the 18th pick and cook by giving up their 2nd round pick (#32). watch that pick net them a larry sanders who will end up the sleeper of the draft. they are also actively trying to trade up into the lottery, namely the pacers 10th pick.

what are the jazz doing? are they on the phone shopping for these picks? seems to be pretty easy to get one, and another 1st rounder could end up being valuable. but alas, the jazz dont want to pay another draft pick under contract.

as much as i dont think players should be running franchises, i hope dwill is in their ear telling them who to pick and telling them he could walk away after his contract if they dont do something on draft nite.


since i know my guy paul george isnt even on their draft board, i will just be happy if the jazz draft ed davis instead of monroe/aldrich/babbit/etc. i've given up the idea that the jazz will draft george.

the only good thing is it will make it that much easier to turn the nba off for good which i finally did this year.

60% of the time, it works every time.

that doesn't make sense.

Once again...unrealistic expectations for a #9 pick.

unrealistic expectations how? by wanting them to pick the best player at 9? paul george is a future all star and will more than likely be available at 9. even ed davis or aminu have the potential to be. monroe, aldrich, babbit do not.


waiting 3 years to pick greg monroe? thats a huge letdown


how many times are the jazz gonna have a lotto pick this high? they arent luring any FAs into salt lake city. this draft needs to count, and its not going to if they pick the players i mentioned and pass on other guys.

Please, I beg, stop bitching. If the Jazz bother you so damn much, quit being a fan of them. Seriously, we don't need you, and the front office doesn't either. I haven't used this in a while, but I've had a bad day so here goes.... You pong mongling tardnuckle.
 
"they arent luring any FAs into salt lake city."

Um the last time they had enough cap room to get a decent free agent was when? Boozer & Okur?

If you look at draft history of picks in the area the Jazz are scheduled to pick, you would be happy with the Jazz getting a solid player out of this pick. Expecting more is unrealistic. Could you hope for more? Sure, but expecting it would be foolish. The draft is essentially a crapshoot after pick #5...especially in this weak of a draft.

Don't wanna see no bitchin? Best leave now, then. As soon as the Jazz pick is made, whoever it is, this here joint is gunna go plumb hawgwild with bitchin, garonteed.
 
Need upside guys like Darius Miles, Tskitishvili, Kwame Brown, D.J. Augustin. Guys like that would be perfect to pick. Lots of upside, though.

The Thunder could do that deal because they have the cap room. The Jazz do not have any.

Very ture. There is no way we will all be happy. Also, there is no way to even know if the pick was good for a year or two, maybe more. BUT, the bitching will commence anyway.
