Jabari interview, sounds like Parker is leaving it up to coach K.

Eh, regardless of what Coach K says, Jabari is ready. He will improve more rapidly against better competition and with more emphasis on getting in shape.

Disappointing nike hoop summit game. I was hoping for a draft eligible euro to have a mind blowing performance and catapult himself into the mid first round, thereby creating more options for the Jazz with the lousy GS pick or their own 2nd rounder.

Well, he sees himself as a 4 in the modern era of basketball.

It'll be interesting to see what happens with our front court, if we're lucky enough to draft him.

I honestly haven't followed him much cause I'm not expecting the Jazz to have that high of a pick next year.

I'm sure Okafor will be good, but damn, he makes Kanter look like an elite athlete...

^^ A bigger Sullinger I'd say. All star, but not superstar potential.

i think okafor's athleticism is just fine. dude is 270lb+. and he carries that weight effortlessly. love his touch around the rim, 7ft 5 wingspan, fluid hip, and love his massive lower body.

yeah, bigger sullinger makes sense. if sullinger was bigger he would easily be top 5 post player. i always liked sullinger, but i knew he can't be elite because he was undersized with so-so athleticism. but this kid has 2 inches on sullinger with 4 inch longer wingspan. and he moves better than sullinger IMO.

bigger, tad shorter, but slower tim duncan could be his ceiling. and that's not a bad ceiling.
