What's new

2011 draft.....

Coming out of college, what did Stockton or Nash have on Jimmer?
They played to make others better and excelled at it.

They weren't Mormon.

And neither went to the school that Jimmer has terrorized for years now.

Seriously, had Jimmer played at UCLA, I doubt so many Ute fans would have so many doubts.
If you think the only people that doubt Jimmer's exalted, transcendant greatness are Ute fans, that proves your total ****ing ignorance on the matter. For me personally, I almost couldn't care less about college basketball, especially not programs that haven't produced any good NBA players in... 6 years (Utah) or... what, 30 (BYU)?
 
The Morris' don't excite me. I hate 3/4 tweeners and they just don't appear to have the lateral quickness to defend NBA 3's (nor the complete offensive game at the 3) and don't play big enough to think they could play the NBA 4.
 
I don't get the Leonard is Marion or Gerald Wallace comparisons. The latter two play or played way above the rim, with authority. The highlights I've seen of Leonard show me nothing like that on the offensive end. Just awkward takes to the rim, especially for a guy with supposedly so much athleticism, length and big hands. Can someone please provide a link of Leonard highlights from which one could deduce Wallace/Marion abilities? Please. 'Cause I just don't see it.
 
My best case:

Jazz win lottery and draft Kyrie Irving.
Swing Devin Harris for a legit shooter wing player to put next to Hayward.
 
Yeah, Leonard reminds me more of a Rodman/Artest type. That's not a bad thing. But it isn't Wallace nor is it Marion.

I only saw Leonard play a little bit this year. I could be wrong about him. I do love his work ethic.
