Athletically? Lmao. I'm not saying Stan isn't athletic, but LeBron...it's not even close man. So no, Johnson isn't that close athletically to Bron.

Unless Stanley hangs around labs with radioactive spiders I don't think he'll ever even come close to his athleticism. And actually this isn't correct... Lebron is essentially the same size as the mailman. Lebron is an alien.
Stanley's physical profile is a lot closer to Ron Artest's. That is who he reminds me of.

Stanley Johnson reminds me a lot of Jimmy Butler in terms of size, offensive game coming out, work ethic and defensive potential. The Jazz would be lucky to land a player with his potential this year. I'm still hoping that they trade up to land one of Johnson, Hezonja, Winslow or Porzingis. I want the Jazz to go big and chase a #1 option type with All Star potential before they fall out of the lottery. This might be the last time in the near future that they'll have a shot at guys in this range.

I am really good at math... Will someone please explain to me why I will be irrationally disappointed when we don't move up into the lottery.

Nobody is.
If Johnson slips, then Utah should aggressively move up to get him. I really think that he has the potential to be a 2 way star like Leonard/Butler. Add that to a future lineup of Gobert, Favors, Hayward and Exum and Utah could easily have the top defensive team in the league, with just enough offensive punch to knock teams out.
He's better than the Jazz should have any hope to get out of this draft. If he slips, it would be the same quality of pick as Gobert and Hood. He's a perfect fit for the Jazz IMO. I'd still go with Russell or Hezonja first, but I like Stanley Johnson a lot.

20 hours until the draft lottery....
The Jazz have had the 20th pick twice in their history...1979 and 2009 exactly 30 years apart.
30 years ago his draft the Jazz selected Karl Malone 13th. The two teams behind the Jazz have a combined 11 number sequences to leap over the Jazz and push the Jazz into the 13th pick.
The Jazz drafted 12 th in 2010. In the lottery the Jazz have selected 2,3,5,7,9,11,12,13,14.
