Jazz select Grayson Allen at 21

Because it is only posters that think this may have been a bit of a reach... not other educated basketball experts. I'm fine with Allen, but the guys saying there is no way guys here could be more right than DM, DL, or QS is kind of dumb... many here thought Booker was better than Lyles... guess what?

We are allowed to disagree and stand on our own opinions... I'm just fighting back the notion that if a player is good then we should all be cool... you think DM knows who Okobo is? i mean he might but I doubt he has looked over the numbers and games some here have.

I think it is great to get input.. get all the data you can... but use it as one data point.

I never said people aren't entitled to their opinions, but I actually think it's kind of dumb to think that anyone on this board knows more about the prospects than DL and the Jazz coaching and scouting staffs. They attend countless games, watch thousands and thousands of hours of film, and interact directly with coaches and players. Most of the people on this board form their opinions from watching highlights before the draft. Of course DL knows Okobo. Doesn't mean they always get it right, but I think they are easily the most informed. They also have to commit to just ONE guy. It's a little easier to get it right when you get to choose 4 or 5 like most of us do.

PG_AB knows every 12 year old who plays basketball anywhere in the western hemisphere. Do the Jazz FO and scouts?

Didn't think so.
 
Any time your team drafts a guard or wing and you think he sucks, you always have hope that NBA spacing will be great for his game.

That's how I'm crying myself to sleep at night.

He trolled us all with wanting Allen that when it actually happened he had a mental collapse, realizing that his contrarian natural had finally come back on him and now he’s contemplating following LiAngelo on the Shanghai Sharks.

Now that was funny as hell, but seriously where is he?

KBD could have started. That’s an easy, cheap replacement of Favors. While we earned $500k selling the pick, we could have easily saved $8-12M by not needing to bring back Favors.

If it was only $500k (yes, ONLY $500k), every fan should have a bad taste in their mouth. Especially if that amount would've been enough to move up.

We have a good group of guys but I do wonder... what we’re rudy and DM supposed to say? We don’t like the pick we wanted the French kid. The ingles Rubio welcome exchange was pretty funny. I enjoy the guys running each other and how friendly and funny they are... I’ll bet our locker room is top 2-3 as far as fun, supportive teammates.

Top 2-3?

Number ****ing 1, I have no doubt!
