I’ve watched Fears. I also watched his game against Texas a&m where he literally scored 0 points. I don’t care how dominant he was. I don’t want another small guard on the Jazz (6’5” wingspan) that can’t shoot from the outside.

The Jazz are going to take Fears at 5 & I’m irate about. I can’t believe they’d take him over Tre Johnson.

He also has a 5” shorter wingspan, a smaller vertical, and shot 12% worse from the 3 than Tre.

Great. Then the Jazz get a piece from NO (future pick?) + Tre Johnson at 7.

If the Jazz really do like Fears & Kneuppel a lot, it makes all the sense in the world to trade with New Orleans down to #7. They'd be guaranteed to get one Fears, Knueppel, Bailey, or Johnson (likely Fears).

Fears has a 6'5" wingspan (horrible) and shot 28% from the 3 last year. I'll be so bummed out if he's the pick. He had also had a game last season against Texas A&M where he went 0-5 from the floor, had 0 points, and 3 assists. It's crazy to draft a guy at #5 that's capable of scoring 0 points...

I'm going to go all LA protests on the Jazz if they tanked an entire season just to draft Kon Nipple.

You bring up some valid points, but there's just such an overall talent and ceiling discrepancy between Kon & Ace. There's just no way. I can't pinpoint exactly where I've seen the Ace stuff, but I've seen comments made by media alluding to the fact that they do like him. Also, if Any & Sarah...

Because it’s a wrong idea. There’s been musings throughout the season and this whole process the Jazz have liked Ace. In addition, Ainge has a proven track record of loving long, athletic, wings that can shoot and have all the physical tools. I would bet my life there is 0 chance that if at #5...

Are you saying Fanspo has it wrong then? Fanspo says they have their pick, NO just has rights to pick swap.

This trade just makes so much sense to me. The only reason you don't do this if you're the Jazz is if you could find something even better. Collins/Sexton/Juzang to the Bucks for Lillard and their 2027 1st.

Should the Jazz be interested in a trade of #5 & #21 (or a future first) to Philly for 3? That would ensure the Jazz get their guy out of Ace/VJ/Tre (likely Ace). I think I would do the deal to get Ace Bailey. Bailey is just oozing with potential with his length, athleticism, and shot making...

Kas can't beat a single person off the dribble in the NBA. He's mediocre at best. He's irrelevant to this discussion for the Jazz and belongs no where the top 5 prospects in this class.

I'll never be convinced that Kon Kneuppel isn't just Kevin Huerter/Luke Kennard. I believe this will bear out in his NBA career. I am confident in that. We're not drafting Hurter/Kennard with the #5 pick.

What a joke. Ainge is running the Jazz into the ground so far.

If the Rockets miss out on the KD & Giannis sweepstakes, I could see the Jazz and Rockets making a trade involving Markkanen/Collins/Sexton. Cam Whitmore, reed shepperd, Jabari Smith, and the #10 pick are all really interesting pieces for the Jazz.

Anyone thinking anyone other than whoever falls out Tre Johnson, Vj Edgecombe, or Ace Bailey is up in the night. The pick will be one of those 3 guys, and of those 3 it’s overwhelming likely it’s Tre Johnson. You just don’t pass at #5 on a 6’5” explosive athlete that torched the toughest...

The problem is neither of those teams would do this trade.

Okay I can see that. Reed shepperd could be a real asset & the #21 pick this year likely won’t even be that valuable. The Jazz need to shed John collins though. Having him serves no point. He’s in an expiring contract and him playing will only stunt the growth of Filipowski & Hendricks. Plus...

Here's some trade ideas. I'd love people's feedback on these Jazz/Rockets trade ideas. I guess to me one of the big problems is that if they're going to make a run at Giannis, Jabari Smith & Reed Shepherd would likely be part of those deals. However, they would be getting at least 1 extra pick...
