Official Thread: # Jazz Draft Day 2018 #

[mellow]

I thought the second philly pick got traded to Lakers.

 

[Hearsky]

Well there goes Bonga. This is officially the worst night in the history of life.

 

[SCS]

Has anyone heard anything about why KBD is falling?

Has anyone heard anything about why KBD is falling?

Maybe his back spasm thing in Utah was a serious thing?

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Bonga, Kurucs and Vanderbilt all gone...

 

[Elizah Huge]

If we somehow land KBD this draft would be a dream come true.

 

[kabenac]

Stupid Philly is going to have one talented roster.

 

[zyzz]

Does anyone have Tony Jones's now deleted tweet about Allen being top 3 on Utah's board?

Maybe top 3 if they stay at 21. I can't believe he'd be top 3 overall.

That was my hope.

whispers of a few dudes falling due to baggage/character issues ??

That would be a solid draft. I think both picks would be contributors.

I don't. I saw it and thought about taking a screenshot but I didn't. It's basically the same as the tweet that is posted now except he said "Allen was high on the Jazz board....like, top 3 high" at the beginning of the tweet. He deleted that part and re-posted the rest of the tweet. I'm guessing Jazz brass wasn't happy or he had second thoughts about leaving that info out there.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Great, wonder if we'll get Ray Spaulding and Grayson Allen on the same team now...

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Diallo and Melton gone.

 

[yamers]

Drafting guys based on workouts is not a great strategy... who did he workout against?

they did the same thing with Mitchell, turned out good.

 

[mellow]

5 picks to go until Jazz...I got admit there is not much left that excites me.

(I assume KBD, Alkins and Metu will be gone)

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

There was more than just the workout... traditionally big draft mistakes were based on workouts.

Kings took Evans over Curry because Evans dominated him in a workout... trey Lyles, Yi (the chairman), DMs workout was good but everyone had him rising and it was more than just one workout.
