This guy deserves his own thread. He will be a nice consolation prize if the Jazz get the 5th pick or lower. If the Jazz were confident that his shooting will improve I might be ok with the Jazz selecting him as high as 3 or 4 (Depending in Embiid's health) Not to mention he doesn't turn 19 until September. I believe he will be the youngest player in the NBA next year.

Can you imagine Aaron Gordon and Favors on the same starting 5? The Jazz's defense would be amazing.

our defense is so bad, that I think I want him the most outside of Wiggins. With him being 18 still, learning to shoot is not outside the realm of possibility. If Jazz don't get Wiggins, I fully support them gambling on Gordon.

Coach K really made me question Parker. I was very high on Parker for almost all of the season, but after seeing how Coach K had to substitute Parker in and out constantly in close games because of his defensive limitations, I got very very troubled. If Parker is that much of a liability on defense, he has no place on our team. The weight issue is also a problem. Parker is very doughy, and might just have that kind of body that just gets worse and worse. He'll be great offensively, but we need 2 way players. If Parker is too slow, he'll be a tweener. Not good.

Gordon is a tweener in a different way than Parker is. Gordon has the speed, handles, passing, and D to play SF, he just can't shoot. Gordon might grow that extra inch too. He'll definitely add more weight.

David Locke never says it bluntly because he doesn't want to get in trouble but basically he thinks Parker with always struggle with his weight since he is half Samoan.
