2019 Annual JazzFanz Current Players NBA Draft
- Thread starter gandalfe
- Start date
That makes no sense tho to frame a competition that way.
Everyone views these things as "Playoff matchup, who wins?" not "Which team is going to put up the better stats through the totality of the year".

Nice. I like putting Ben Simmons at PF. Other than his inability to shoot the 3.
But nice team. There are quite a few really good teams. Gonna be hard to vote.

If he’s fully healthy by the end of the year, I probably wouldn’t hold it against whoever takes them. The main question I have is “Can he contribute in a 7 game playoff series?”
If the answer is “yes” I base my vote on what kind of role I’d expect them to have by the time the playoffs come around. Torn ACL usually gets back in about 6-9 months. Not sure how effective he’ll be by then, but to each their own.
You really messed up drafting Capela instead of Horford.
He's a top 3 shooter of all time. ACL tears aren't really that big of a deal. It's really hard to find any player whose career took a big downturn because of an ACL tear, at least in the last 2 decades.
I would have drafted Klay, but RoCo is really good at the things I wanted to add so I just played it safe. Someone should probably drafted him this round or next.

Depends on how much he uses his legs when he shoots.

Capela is bad ***. Should have been picked higher. He got him for a steal.

He's the ultimate 3&D center. Last season he:
- Made more 3s than any 7 footer in history.
- Became the first player ever to average 2 blocks and 2 made 3s.
- Made more 3s than Kobe ever did in a season, while simultaneously blocking more shots than KG ever did in a season.
"The Bucks are allowing just 42.1 points in the paint per game this year, just one tenth of a point off the best team, and third best overall. This represents a radical shift from last season, where the Bucks finished 23rd and gave up 47.3 points per game in the paint. Lopez is a major reason why that’s changed."
"Lopez has blocked 6.4 percent of the shot attempts against him this season. That’s fourth best in the NBA..."
"Opponents are shooting just 51.8 percent at the rim against him when he’s the closest defender, putting him in the top-10 in the league. Zach Kram of The Ringer highlighted that here. That total puts him on par with one of the league’s most highly regarded defensive big men, Rudy Gobert."
"When Lopez is on the floor, the Bucks defensive rating is two points better than their already league best rating, at 102.3. That puts him sixth among all NBA players who’ve played at least 60 games and logged at least 24 minutes per game."

Solid defense, great shooting, and lots of potential. I expect Kat and Collins to have even bigger years. This team has lots of matchup issues and 5 outside shooters.

Non-shooting big next to Simmons is wildly stupid on his part. WC always manages to hurt his team somehow.
No its not lmfao
IF that were the case, we'd just be posting stats and draft stat hogs.

Deal with it. It’s a true statement. More than once you you blatantly got on while it was your pick and typed that you were drunk and we’re going to take the next 12 hours to sleep it off than make your pick, so I’m sorry the truth hurts.
