PTI gives Jazz fans an F

[jimmy eat jazz]

A true 5? Aldrich? Weren't you the one terribly against that 24 hours ago?

If the Jazz had picked Aldrich, the bitching and whining here would, at best, only been marginally less.

Personally, I would have picked Henry, as I think he could have become the starting 2 and potential break out star, but I do not think there was a big left who was good enough who would have satisfied the Jazz's need. I like Patterson, but he duplicates what we have in Millsap. I'm not sure Aldrich wouldn't have been a good choice. All in all, I'd prefer selecting a good player who can contribute than a project or marginal big man who's upside in Pryzbilla (and adequate player but hardly the type to take the Jazz to the promised land).

That was my choice of the remaining players as well.

Was highest on Udoh, though.

Weren't these the same guys that bashed us for booing Fisher?

Why the hell does anyone here care what PTI thinks?

I love when Jazz fans boo Fisher but booing our first-round pick deserves an F.

Why do people keep saying Hayward is not a need? Korver is gone and this will most likely be AK's last year. We are probably looking at our starting SF after this season.

I think they want to put Hayward at the SG and play Miles at the SF. They might keep AK also.

I think they want to put Hayward at the SG and play Miles at the SF.

SF and SG are interchangeable in the Jazz offense...

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Matthews is our 2 guard, meaning he is the player most capable of guarding other NBA 2 guards. I think ideally they want Hayward to be able to be the starting 3, and have Miles as the 3rd wing coming off the bench for scoring/energy boost.

 

[NotDeadYet]

Miles did seem to grow up a bit last year, but yeah, I expect Hayward would become a starter at the 3 and be more effective there. Especially defensively. I'm warming up to Jeremy Evans too; sounds like the 2nd coming of Dennis Rodman as far as BB skills go; could become our defensive stopper...

 

[Chad Feldheimer]

What grade did they give the Lakers fans when they started the city on fire after they won the championship? A? A-?

 

[Darkwing Duck]

So I'm assuming there are no signature restrictions on this board anymore?

 

[cowhide]

ESPN never misses a chance to bash anything about Utah including the fans. I actually was surprised they even discussed the pick.

Well if Gordan Hayward becomes bigger than Green(lime) Jello in Utah then I will be impressed.

 

[The Ghost of Blue Edwards]

Yea, cause God forbid a fanbase actually care about their team enought to actually want to win a championship instead of just blindly applauding whatever their moronic GM does.

This is just ESPN finding any excuse possible to propogate the tired stereotype of "classless" Utah fans.
