That's cool - nice pick last year going solo on Giannis BTW.

 

[Doc Cherno]

Give me my man Cleanthony Early...

 

[Game6Conley]

PJ Hairston

 

[The Midnight]

I wanna pick my nose.

Chicken.



c'mon man, give me a name i could use.

 

[The Midnight]

PJ Hairston

No Vonleh??? Where's the 'Love' bro?????

 

[Coach Ellis]

It's a tie for me. . .

Aaron Gordon and Zach LaVine

Both of them are raw as heck, but they have franchise potential and are sitting outside of the top 3 picks. Swing for the fences.

Great thread.

Well I'd like to pick Stauskas then.

Thanks bro.


Unfortunately the rule of the game is you've gotta make a call and pick 1 (that's how we were able to get those Bazz Homers to bite, LOL... ).


So who's it gonna be???!!!???!!!

 

[The Midnight]

Well I'd like to pick Stauskas then.

Great pick actually, I see a lot of Klay Thompson in him. Could really surprise some people.

Alright guys, it's time to make this official list of who we love in the 2014 NBA Draft.

So how does this work?


- You pick who you "Love" as a player, irregardless of position and where they're projected to be picked.

- It's basically the guy you're proud to be a "homer" of.

- If your guy is picked really high in the draft, but crapped out, ala "Jimmer" or a "Laetner" or an "Alexander" then you would be "Shamed" forever and ever more. (I'm look at you, Biyombo and 'Bazz homers, you know who you are).

- If your guys performed more or less at the same level as where he is picked, then it's "Meh".

- However, if your guy is picked low, like say Thompson or Lillard, but outperformed that particular pick, then you are "Glorified" forever and ever more here on JazzFanz and become a part of JazzFanz's prestigious folklore. (Honz is obviously in this category re Hayward)


====================================================================


So just indicate below what your pick is (1 player per poster only please) and I will update the following list. Doesn't matter if your player is taken, I'll group you guys together, no problem whatsoeva.

Let's Go!!!

I'm famous!

 

[Stifle Tower]

The evaluation part is the key:
I've always been a Vonleh homer, but he will underperform his draft position next season. He's a project and will take a couple of years to develop - i.e. back up next year and won't have stats that jump out at you. On the other hand, whoever goes to Philly will have a HUGE year since their team is awful. Case in point was MCW.

I'll take McBuckets. He's going to be a scorer off the bench from Day 1, but may fall to late lottery.
Doug "Great White Hope" McDermott.

Wow.. a surprise pick from Core4 - but then again I'd expect nothing less.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Aaron Gordon

I've written soo many posts explaining why already.


If I had a second vote, I'd say Zach Lavine. From where he is projected to be drafted, to who he could be if he matures and figures it out. WOW!

McDerrmott is an easy pick he averaged more than the hyperstars of the draft.

Jimmer had the same feat coming out of college....

 

[Elizah Huge]

Exum for me.

 

[jope]

Jabari Parker

 

[The Midnight]

Exum for me.

An interesting pick, a real shot in the dark...



It sure would be fun watching him play with MCW though...
