Jazz Draft Jared Butler

JZ saying the right things. Obviously saying those things doesn’t mean anything, but it always felt like DL would only say them in a very abstract way and not in any way that drew attention and at least some form of accountability for your reputation.

I'm sorry to be a Debbie downer as I'm still bitter about last season, but what so far has made this 2nd round eliminated, 4 straight losses to an injured Clippers team better? Remember, if Butler was so important to our championship aspirations we would've drafted him at 30.

Apparently his knee was red flagged as well. I think if it was just the heart he goes top 20. Lots of guys get flagged with medical stuff and have long careers… I ain’t scared.

We are better… the line of thinking that a single move doesn’t “put you over the top” is one of the dumbest most frustrating ideas that gets thrown out there. Let’s just not do anything unless it gets us a championship guaranteed…

We could just… ya know… be a little happy for a minute.

By all means be happy but we're a second round exit again and with no Mike(ATM) and Favors we are worse. I'll leave it out of this particular thread though as it truly the best pick we could've gotten. My bad on that
 
Butler is a combo guard who is ready to play
If and when Conley or Donovan gets hurt or has to rest Butler is legit replacement
who can play starter minutes
Jazz did not have that

We don’t know yet. The kid is likely ready to contribute and could have been quite useful in the clips series… it’s no guarantee… but this is basketball… ain’t no guarantees anywhere.
 
I like the player, I love the value. The trade was solid too. Overall I think it's a good first draft day for Zanik. One problem - he doesn't help us with our main problems - lack of length, athleticism and defense on the perimeter. I guess we will have to address that in FA.
 
I now have faith in JZ… it’s not unshakeable but I have faith.

I think he helps with our main problems. Matador defense and decision making. I still cant get over that royce travel out of a donovan mitchell double team. I could have made that play
 
Looking forward to summer league. All I want is a Donovan Mitchell type summer league from young Jared.
