Jabari Says it Would be a Blessing to be a Laker... SMYH

It would be.

You know how much more money you can make from being a Laker compared to being on the Jazz, Bucks, Magic, etc.?

Honestly, if I was a big time athlete and not an extreme Jazz fan, I would want to be on the Lakers.
 
Throughout the draft process, you will also hear every prospective player throw around words like 'blessing', 'honor', etc. in a vain attempt to further their draft position and maximize the amount of money they can hear. Take the draft's biggest party animal who will be clubbing every night and throwing bills at pole dancers and doing lines of coke off the small of their back at their hotel, ask them prior to being drafted what they think of Utah and they'll say 'They have a rich tradition there in Utah. I would be blessed to play for them and it'd be an honor to put on that uniform'.

Every prospect is a used car salesmen right now - don't overreact to everything that they say as they'll change their tone on a dime.
 
I like how because of religion Utah thinks they own Jabari Parker. Maybe he doesn't see himself as the mormon hero of basketball?
 
Jabari should be expelled from the temple or whatever for this statement. hyperventile EVERYBODY.... NOW!
Ok, that was fake!
 
I hate how people bring up that he's mormon so that's why we want him. Yeah it's be cool and all, but I want to get him cause he's a freakin good basketball player with a lot of potential. I'd be incredibly happy getting wiggins, embiid, or exum as well.
 
This doesn't mean a thing at all. Every draft prospect that goes to any nba cities and gets interviewed, they would probably say the same thing. It'd be an 'honor' or it'd be a 'blessing' or some **** like that, to play for the team because they have to. If Jabari Parker came to utah and did an interview, he do the exact same thing.

He went to Duke of all places. Clearly he prefers prestigious teams. I would worry less about where he wants to play though as it won't matter for some time once he's drafted.
 
jabari isnt going 6th in this draft, so it is a moot point unless they get extremely lucky

I'm sure any prospect would be happy to play in the city of Utah, or is that the state of Salt Lake?

LA has a very nice temple. But c'mon, Lakers are so last decade. Jabari needs to play for the Clippers. Even the grade school kids here in LA hate the Lakers. You don't see purple and gold anywhere. It's such a wonderful, wonderful world!
