Flip much younger, better athlete, and better body
I’m loving his rise as it pushes Hendricks down to the Minny pick.
4-year senior Kaminsky?

Maybe. I’d love that as a result.
I guess it’s a compliment that Flip can play at that level already.. still not my kind of player though.

Jett needs to get that contract as soon as possible. If he spends another year being soft as Charmin in college, people are going to realize that is exactly who he is. He's the one 10-20 player I absolutely want no part of.

You post a lot about a dude you wouldn’t draft for the Jazz with our first two picks.
So say the Jazz draft Flip... where is he getting minutes? And what is the opportunity cost to drafting him?
I saw a ways back in this thread that Flip could be Olynyk. Well we have him, and I'm not passing a chance at plugging a greater need or potentially better prospect for that.
You gotta be a pretty ****ing incredible scorer to be a big that can't guard the perimeter or the rim. And the returns diminish wildly after having one of them, IMO.
If he's there with the Sixers pick, great. I wouldn't draft him top-20 for this team, though.

Couple things here:
- You don’t draft Flip in the lottery if you think his ceiling is Olynyk.
- He can protect the rim.
- I think he would be awesome as the 4 in a lineup where Lauri is the 5.
Also, people are projecting him in the 20’s right now. I don’t think a single person thinks we should take him in the top-10. If we’re picking like 9/15 I would absolutely take him at 15.
Sorry you are so pressed about it. This thread isnt just about Jazz needs to me.
