Bill Simmons: Prediction No. 1: Utah tries like hell to trade up for Jabari Parker.

[Thee Jazz Fan]

There is no way in hell I'm doing 5th 23rd and Burks for 3rd.

If PKM is right that Philly really likes Randle, then it could happen.

My hope would be that #5 + #23 + 2017 GS pick would be enough. I'd be sad to see any member of our core go.

#5, #23, and Golden State's 2017 1st-round pick for #3 should do it honestly.

Philadelphia can get Exum (possibly) or Randle at #5.

This.

Doesn't Jabari weigh like 400 lbs by now? It's hilarious how down people are on this dude. He is simply the best NBA-ready player in the draft. He is gonna kill it in the NBA. If we get him, we should be dancing in the streets.

Thank god you aren't running the team then


I'd rather ship someone else of instead of Burks though. Switch Burks with Kanter and that's better. But I'd still trade Burks for Jabari.

If true that they do like Randle. Then wouldn't just the 5 & 23 be enough? I thought I heard the 2017 class was as good as this one???

Something else noting in the article:

Prediction No. 3: If the Celtics don’t trade their pick, they’re taking Shawn Marion 2.0 (a.k.a. Aaron Gordon).

That’s right, Matrix 2! (Whoops, that movie sucked — bad nickname.) What about … The Re-Matrix? I believe that Gordon is destined to become this year’s Russell Westbrook — a.k.a. the crazy-competitive, crazy-good athlete who doesn’t seem to have an official position yet, only the more teams work him out and watch tape of him, the more they fall in love with him. I’m worried about Utah taking him fifth if they can’t trade up for Jabari. Don’t tell anyone.

Sorry Bill, I was the first to say Gordon could be a Westbrook pick.

The 5 and Burks to get Parker might be my worst nightmare that I could actually see the Jazz doing in this draft.

yeah I was a little sad reading that. Don't wanna give up burks

It's supposed to be the next great class, but there's a chance Silver changes the age requirement. Even if he doesn't, I think we're being delusional if we think that pick is going to be high. Curry ain't going anywhere.

Jabari sure came to play against Mercer in the NCAA Tournament.

Not just Mercer. Basically after about the first 7 games of the season, or when they started playing decent teams regularly, he just wasn't that good. 44% FGs, 28% 3pt.

This crap is hilarious right?

We got people thinking Vonleh is a better pick. Holy crap that is so ridiculous.

I'll bet my Jazzfanz membership and ban myself if Jabari doesn't tear up the NBA. He is the most sure fire stud in the draft.

Jabari just finished working out. Went hard. Shot it well. Ended it with a series of emphatic dunks. Overall he looked really good.

All in for Jabari.
