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

Lol @ people who can't respect anyone who has different opinions.

I find it bizarre especially in this draft where there's no real clear cut guy to pick either.

I have my opinions on moving up (I would sell the farm for Wiggins, half the farm for Parker or Embid), and on the guys projected (want Smart but like everyone else to a degree after him, and see all their weaknesses). I just don't think there are any clear cut right answers in this draft, but a lot of good gambles.

Yeah Jabari is a dead lock to go number 1.

No he isn't. According to almost anybody.

The best thing DL can do now is act super high on Vonleh. He already bested everyones expectations at the combine. The second part to the equation is workouts. Leak that he had a glowing workout in Utah and we are quite confident in him. Give Milwaukee or Philly a call on draft night with a sizable package, but not the farm. If it happens it happens.

I don't respect opinions when a persons main argument is that the Jazz only want Parker because he's mormon.

This is not an Undecided draft. Embiid is by far the clear #1 pick. IF you have watched any college basketball or any Scouting Videos and still cant come to the conclusion that Embiid is the clear #1 pick then you are pretty much a casual fan. Anybody with a lick of BBall knowledge knows that Embiid is a once in a lifetime Center prospect.

Lol I have seen Embiid, Wiggins and Parker all going first according to people who do Bball for a living. Not clear cut at all.

Also..... embiid has the concerns with his back and i have heard he may have issues with one of his knees.

I'm not saying you have to respect everyone or every opinion, if you would read again, I've complained that some people here can't tolerate any different opinions.

I too don't think the mormon connection thing carries any weight, fwiw.
