Took Parker every single time. The players picked ahead of Parker were Embiid, Wiggins and Smart (by Orlando). I'll take it.
 
Played it a ton more and I think it is correct. We will end up with Parker, Embiid or Exum. And I LOVE that.
 
5 more times.

Exum, Randle and Jabari. I'm not a Randle fan at all. I think I would have rather had Smart that time than Randle.
 
The funny thing is, the consensus top 5 are Parker, Embiid, Wiggins, Smart, Randle, Exum (I know that is six). BUT, I bet there is a player not in that group that blows up in the tourney and is taken top 5 that isn't one of those six.

Smart. Better fit. More NBA ready. Don't want to wait 3 seasons for Gordon's skill to catch up with his athleticism.

I hate both. We might have better players at their positions already. The Jazz have to end up top 5. That would be big time disappointing if we ended up with Gordon or Smart. This is where I hope someone blows up and jumps up, bumping Exum or Parker down to us.

So, if the Jazz end up #6, do you take Gordon or Smart?

Such a tough choice.

If we take smart then we have hayward, burks, smart at shooting guard or else smart is just a backup point guard.
But i do think smart is the better player.

If we took gordon then we could plug him right in to the starting small forward position vacated by jefferson

Let's say we end up with Gordon and put him in the starting five. Then we overpay to keep Hayward. Have we gotten any better? I'm not sure. That would suck.

Ya it would suck..... but im not certain we overpay for hayward yet.

But ya the tank most likely isnt going to net any of the real prizes in the draft and that sucks regardless of what happens with hayward
 
5 more times. Jazz at #5 chance-wise.
