Jazz taking Jimmer #6 "most logical pick in NBA Draft History"

I'm so sick of Jimmer. So, so, so sick of Jimmer. There is nothing to talk about with this kid until the workouts start. If I'm the Jazz, and I'm really actually thinking about drafting Jimmer, I'm asking him to work out against the 4 quickest PG prospects I can find in however many workouts that takes. If he doesn't want to do it, wish him luck. If he does, great. But until I see him play one on one defense against guys with NBA quickness, there is no drafting Jimmer.

And if he does reasonably well or out scores them, are you onboard at pick 12?

I approve of this suggestion. Make it happen!

So you're the egghead that would have passed on players like Nash?
 
ESPN now has us passing on Jimmer at #12. Isn't Chad Ford a former Cougar? Hmm...Methinks all the little junior Jimmers are going to get their hearts broken.

Oh, no.......a mock draft has the Jazz passing on Jimmer. Woe is me.....give me a few minutes to compose myself.
I'm getting verklempt, talk amongst yourselves.

Here's a topic - mock draft
Is it a mock, or is it a draft.... discuss.

You can't compare Jimmer and Nash coming out of college. Nash was a dynamite passer who nobody doubted could run an NBA offense. Jimmer is a fantastic shooter who is more a PG by default. I actually think Jimmer can learn to run a point. But defensively, Jimmer is coming out of a system where he played 100 percent zone. Nash played for Canada and worked out with pros. Scouts had a lot to work with in evaluating Nash.
