I think someone might be using a broken tape measure.Mack and Neto are both 6'3". I think it's clear how much DL values size/length/defense over all.
If you can move Trey now and get some value for him, I don't see why you wouldn't.
This is a nice little trade in the sense that Mack is probably a better player than the 2nd round pick would have got.
Regarding the bolded portion, what do you think he has done wrong? I think he has responded very well.I like Mack, but his shooting is a concern. Not sure what it means for Trey, His dad has twittered and leaked the Trey Camp into a weak corner. Hope the best for Trey. He has not responded well to being second string, I don't know how he will respond to possibly being third string.
As a fan of the Jazz I'm hoping for the best.
Wow, I totally forgot that Danny Manning was the first overall pick.
No doubt you can get a good to great player in the 2nd round. But it's not close to being the norm.Probably, but here are some players who were taken mid to late 2nd round in the last few years. E Moore, C Parsons, Lavoy Allen, Jordan Clarkson, K Middleton, Joe Young, W Barton, Jokic, D Powell, Whithey, Muscala, Lauvergne, O'Quinn and to top it off the 60th pick I Thomas. Also a bunch of intl guys most of whom will probably never step foot in the NBA, but a few who will be good rotation players. I was good and did not list Draymond Green since he was towards the beginning of the second.
In terms of great news, it means that any talk of Jimmer being added to the Jazz should done over for this season. That alone is worth a 2nd round pick.
Yup, we will have 4 guaranteed PG's next year if we don't deal Burke.
So we have Neto, Burke, Green, and Mack now all at PG....ok then.
I bet our minutes of total playoff experience didn't come anywhere near doubling.Interesting Mack fact: In Adding Shelvin to our roster, we have doubled our teams total playoff experience in terms of games played.
Favors and filler (to make salaries match) for griffin?

Should have negged the OP for intentionally starting false hype titled thread but I'll skip this time.
Did we not get an Atlanta PG?
