#bakethat************cake draft pick by the Jazz.

We're good y'all.

Trying to find more good things about him - he guarded SFs in college so one could argue he can guard faster guys. Of course he'll be guarding PFs in the NBA which should be easier for him.

HE'S A **** DEFENDER! All of you are going to be griping about it just like with Kanter. This pick is complete ****. What the **** was the front office thinking.

Exum was a **** defender according to everyone.

Hood was a **** defender who didn't care about his defense according to everyone.

Lyles going to be fine if he trys.

Color me underwhelmed. Still hoping we picked for someone else.

I wonder why:

Locke says Lyles hit 25 of 40 corner-threes during his workout in SLC.


Wow this is amazing if true...

Why hasn't this been merged with the other Trey Lyles drafted thread?

 

[MT Steve]

Was this forum just as insufferable after the Jazz drafted Hayward?

I'm meh on it, but he'll grow on me.

Like fungus...

I don't care what guys can hit when there is nobody guarding them and they get to shoot one after the other. I want to see what they can do when they only have 2-3 chances during the pressure of a game, with a guy closing in on them.

The only pick this forum generally liked was Trey Burke. Granted, they used to ban these asshats pretty fast, so...

This kid is a focused player. I like him.

 

[Jamezz]

Let's see how the shy kid pans out, this leaves Booker's situation in the air, the trade deadline is gonna be interesting. Also we'll have the inevitable comparisons with the other Booker.

Somehow, I'd think his abysmal 3pt% in actual games would be more relevant than what he did in a single workout. Just me.

Much better than his season average! But I'm sure he's been working hard on his shot.

People were pleased with Exum, Hood, and Gobert also. The Hayward pick was a meltdown.

He does have that potential actually.

Well not groundbreaking but it shows he can potentially improve. Decent base to work off of.

This.

You guys think the Jazz will make some moves here?
