Jimmer to the Jazz?

But you have no idea if those guys will pan out. Look at Locke's draft stats. There is like a 5% chance that late 1st round picks will even become rotation players.

The safe bet is getting Jimmer. You at least know you are getting a rotation player that can score in the league. You also have to assume he gets better after getting off that horrible team.

Lol. Jimner is far from a sure fire rotation player at this point. Could be out of the league in a couple years.

I think Jimmermania has died down a lot in the face of the reality that Jimmer is not going to be a star in the NBA. Maybe I'm wrong and there are people out there expecting him to have a breakout season, but I bet their numbers are dwindling.

Has that stopped the Tebowmania? The people who go crazy over a player like Jimmer or Tebow don't even objectively look at their performance.
 
So pretty much we have the ute fans who can't look past their hate of byu, the byu fans who still have a hard on for college jimmer, and then the very small group of non-emotionally charged fans in this thread.

If not for how incredibly retarded all the byu fans would act if we got him, I'd love to take a chance on Jimner. He could maybe be a decent role player, and Sacramento isnt exactly role players paradise.

#21 is too much though, and its hard to believe we could get him for #46.

Again though, cant do it because of the zoob factor.

1) You don't know me. I'm not the safe bet kinda guy.
2) Jimmer hasn't proven any more or less than these guys......... imo.

Yes. You know it's really bad when I'm among the least obnoxious posters in a thread.

Nothing to do with hating byu. Its a FACT that it would create a huge distraction.

This isnt like us signing Andre Miller, Andrew Bogut, or some other Ute. byu fans are really really weird about Jimner.

Im guessing you dont live in Utah?

PKM and UGLI, if you are a GM of another team and had the #21st pick. Would you trade that pick for Alec Burks?

I smell a tarp.

Yes.

Your smelling skills are impeccable. Of course Burks has a higher ceiling but.......

-Jimmer has a THREE point higher PER score over Burks

-Has a higher FG% than Burks

-Higher FT% than Burks

-The same PPG on 4 minutes LESS per game


Jimmer is currently more effecient than Burks. Burks value is his ceiling but when looking at Jimmer you would have to believe that in the right situation he could keep getting better.

*noise of ROFLcopter flying by*
 
Jimmer makes sense for the Jazz. He would/still is hugely popular here. He would make the Jazz money even if he is playing the Earl Watson role.
 
That was very bad, beans... So much so that I want to start a new thread. Copy your logic.. And be entertained by the roasting party leading right up to the draft. Time would fly.

Almost as bad as the born-again Tebowites who insist Timmy the Great doesn't have a Superbowl ring and MVP title simply because the evil men in the NFL have conspired against him.

You don't get it.

#21 for Burks is a no brainier and you thank God you did that deal.

#21 for Jimmer is a good return. Especially in this draft.


Get it?

Tebow took the Broncos to the playoffs and upset the Steelers. Maybe Jimmer could lead the Jazz to the playoffs where Big Al could not?

The defense took the Broncos to the playoffs and upset the Steelers. Tebow was just better at not ****ing it up than Orton.

Would never trade our 21st for Jim. Maybe a 2015 2nd rounder? He's a competent player though. Wouldn't say 'bust'-- too early into his career. Hopefully he can emulate JJ Redick's evolution as a player

That would be great if he was 5" taller like Reddick is.

Might be a slight exaggeration. :)
