IIRC Dwill had always had the better game when playing Chris Paul but overall Paul was widely regarded as the better player?


I dunno may be I remembered it wrong....

We got one of the two, and we got him via trade.

20/20 hindsight criticisms drive me crazy. It's one thing to say beforehand that this is what the Jazz should do with their picks. It is quite another to criticize them two years later for not knowing then what you know now. If GMs had crystal balls then neither of those two guys would have been available where the Jazz were drafting.

It's ignorant posts like yours that drive me crazy. Where did I criticize anyone? I've never criticized DL or KOC for a draft pick. I was just saying that getting both could easily have happened.

And had I known last night's winning lottery number beforehand, I would have changed my name to Doctor Hindsight, right before purchasing the franchise. Worthless comments are worthless.
 
The downside is that if we had drafted Glannis, I'm not sure that we would have made a move for Rudy as well. Whatever it took to get Rudy here is fine with me. I am not greedy. Would love to see that dude suit up ASAP though. . .

We wouldn't have needed to trade for Rudy. We had picks 14 and 21. We could have stood pat and drafted both. But we made two trades. I'm ecstatic that we got Rudy. But I certainly would rather have Giannis than trey.
 
Who is top 10 from that draft class?

Gobert
Greek freak
Dipo
Noel
Schroder
Adams
McLemore
Olynyk?
Otto porter?

Not a great class, but Rudy and Greek freak are definitely the top of it.

Yeah we needed shooting IIRC and another Kirilenko clone wasn't going to get it done... I think the main reason Corbin wanted Trey was for his shooting which unfortunately didn't quite pan out.

Trey isn't a total bust, and at least we did better than most of the other teams by picking Rudy.


Can you imagine though:

Exum
Hayward
Giannis
Favors
Gobert.

I call it the big balls lineup. It's the antithesis of the small ball trend

I'll do you 1 better, pick Giannis with our first pick, then Dieng with our 2nd pick, then buy the Gobert pick as well and we'll have:

Exum
Giannis
Favors
Dieng
Gobert


Now THAT'S a BIGGGG lineup.

Big, but worse than the other lineup.

Hayward >>>>>>>>> dieng
 
I was at the game.

Our defense on JJ was atrocious. And that was the difference.

Having said that Raul got the best of Paul in the first half and G had himself a good game. That foul which hurt Burks looked like it was dirty... From the upper bowl lol. The Jumbotron didn't show the replay. How bad did it look? And apparently h suffered a concussion and an ankle? Good. It looked like it could've been a wrist or a tailbone the way He landed.

Had Burks been able to return and/or anyone had remembered that JJ could shoot we would've won this game.
 
Really wish the Jazz wouldn't have traded for Burke... Thinking how we could've had Giannis makes me so sad. Stupid god damned Corbin. That stupid, stupid, poopy.
 
fwiw, I'd also draft Giannis over Rudy looking at it from where both currently are. Giannis is also 2 1/2 years younger.

DL is the GM. What makes you think he would have picked Giannis had he not picked and traded Shabazz Muhammad and Gorgui Dieng?
