Doing this skype thing w/Hayward, I really don't think the Jazz are going to do anything.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Now watch Houston draft Whiteside and Hakeem make a peace sign via satellite.

 

[AlaskanAssassin]

Scott Layden thinks he's the next Horney, only better!

 

[NUMBERICA]

OKC just cemented themselves as legit contenders with that move

Westbrook/Maynor
Sefolosha or Harden
Durant/Green
Green/Ibaka
Aldrich/Ibaka

They have the pieces.

 

[NAOS]

OKC continues to improve... seriously, they are going to dominate us for years to come.

 

[Zerol]

I really hope that there is a trade in the works....

Sorry man - don't think it's going to happen.

 

[Avery]

If Hayward were being shopped, his agent would tell him as much.

 

[slc]

His strength are IQ and versatility. Is that what you really get with the 9th pick, good lord. Hope they trade him

I agree with the IQ part. Think Jazz are tired of drafting clueless idiots. Fes, Koufos, Snyder, Humphries, etc. Jazz rely on players running the system and execution. Hayward will do exactly that from the minute he gets in the game. This is a smart pick even though it is a big surprise. Jazz may also have some other moves up their sleeve to come.

Conversation with brother:

Tater: "So, watching the NBA Draft."
TaterBro: "Heh. Did the Jazz pick another white dude that can shoot who nobody else wanted?"
Tater: "..."

GREAT STUFF FROM CJ'S TWITTER https://twitter.com/cjmiles34 check it

Can you guys agree with me now that KOC is horrible at drafting besides D will and Milly

No. Because this guy hasn't seen one minute on the floor yet.

 

[baka98]

I still can't believe we picked him... Stunned.... Don't know what to say.... Speechless.... Just can't believe it....
Somebody pinch me....

This is a heck of a lineup. Again, good job KOC.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

In all fairness though, no one else is jumping for Babbit either. The Jazz put up a pretty good smoke screen having all the mocks projecting Davis and Babbit. That's impressive in itself. But how you could take Hayward over Henry, Davis, George, and Patterson.... that's going to be a lively debate.

 

[Revolution 9]

What can this kid do that Kyle Korver or CJ Miles can't?

make less money....sigh

 

[baka98]

patterson to the Rockets

 

[Darkwing Duck]

Patterson at 14. Solid pick. I think that's probably the best place to slot him.

 

[baka98]

crapping my pants...

 

[Jeditiger]

So what flavor is in your avatar? Do I need to try it?

Generic. But I would recommend a Widmer Deadlift IPA. Hoppy and tasty!

 

[Chad Feldheimer]

Patterson should be what Carl Landry was.
