So this link is supposed to say something about Schroeder and the Jazz. But this computer can't read Sulia. What does it say?

Here is what he said.

Jazz fans (for sure) and Bucks fans (maybe) will take note. Dennis Schroeder, the German PG charging up...
draft boards, has singled out Utah and Milwaukee as preferred destinations on draft night. Which is particularly relevant since the interest may be mutual and both will be picking in the right range, with the Jazz probably at 14, barring a long-shot climb into the top three on lottery night, and the Bucks at 15.

As Schroeder himself pointed out to me, the Jazz have the position need as Mo Williams heads into free agency. (Good chance they'd have the need even if Williams wasn't.) When we talked and I asked what he considered the best option for the start of his NBA career, Utah was the first place he mentioned.

Milwaukee is a possibility as well with Brandon Jennings about to become a free agent as well. That draft-night decision by the Bucks, if Schroeder is available at 15, will be as much about weighing their future with Jennings as their read on Schroeder. And if they draft one and re-sign the other, it creates trade chips.

Schroeder's blazing speed is not limited to the court. His rise in the draft, thanks to a showing at the Nike Hoop Summit in Portland, has been a rocket ride. Everything he does now gets extra scrutiny. Including his comments about possible destinations
 
Too much Schroeder talk. I feel like he'll be gone before 10 after looking through our forums.

I know we're hyping him up, and that's scary, but what are the chances of four PG's being drafted before him? We know that Trey Burke, MCW, and CJ McCollum will go before he does. A lot of teams drafting ahead of us already have their franchise PG's. He'll fall to us, unless some team decides to draft him as trade bait to pair him with a ****ty contract and use our cap space somehow.

8-12 have the following point guards:
John Wall (#1 overall, closest thing to franchise player)
Ricky Rubio (#5 overall, probably closest thing to franchise player)
Damian Lillard (#6 overall, closest thing to franchise player)
Jrue Holiday (closest thing to franchise player)
Russell Westbrook (would be a franchise player on most teams)

I don't see anyone above there reaching for Schroeder as that's where someone out of the Shabazz, Oladipo, Bennett, Porter, or Zeller will likely be and to me is the clear second tier and not even I would say Schroeder is there. The Mavericks are the team to watch, and if they think they have an answer at PG outside of Schroder, then getting a defensive center should be their first priority. That's not even mentioning that MCW and McCollum could easily go before him.
 
I would be surprised if MCW didn't drop. Every time I've seen him play I can't help but think that for all his length he's just not a very good basketball player.
 
I remember Lillard saying he would like to play for Utah.


Yeah, I think he said he would like to play for Utah. Schroeder mentioned Utah 1st without even being specifically asked about Utah. Then he mentioned Milwaukee, wtf?

I don't think he mentioned Milwaukee. I think the author was just saying how it could be a possible landing spot.
 
Another hilarious possibility: He falls to us and the Jazz draft someone else. JazzFanz implodes.

i just read alot of online articles about this kid. looked at his stats and saw what people are saying about him. since this draft is rather shallow. he is ranked 4th in PGs. Even if he isn taken by a team that needs a PG i think he will get taken by the team that just wants to nab the best player left and either 1 use him as trade bait or 2 use him as a cheap back up.
