The Jazz chose to respect the game (until it was evident that they couldn’t do that and still lose games and tanked as or more shamelessly than anyone else).
Lol no such thing as reverse racism, racism is racism. Besides not liking him because he is white is bigotry not racism.
okay. i'm a bigot and possibly a racist too. whatever. point is, i wonder how much of my not wanting him is due to him being white - i would like to think i can look past that when evaluating a prospect, but my subconscious can be a little **** at times.
Of course these players could bust but the more I look at Whitmore, Jarace, and even Ausur they have the tools potential to be future stars. Jazz are sitting so close to their draft range it would be difficult to watch them go off the board just ahead of our pick, esp when they have accumulated so much draft capital to play with.
Ehh. Always better to be higher. Always more options there, including trading back and picking up things rather than spending them to trade up (if you’re lucky).
Holy ****. cam to utah at 9 would be the greatest.
On his last podcast, Kevin O’Connor said he is going to have Ausar above Amen on his next big board
Biancardi is mostly a HS prospect evaluator, so take his thoughts with a grain of salt, but it's fun to think about - if the draft were to shake out like that, imagine getting Whitmore at 9, again - he only did his top 14, but Cason wasn't in it - so you get CW at 9 and Cason at 16. freaking dream draft right there. though i would try like hell to trade up to take Leonard Miller too.
I agree. Im just playing devils advocate for what the anti tanker would say..... And may even be correct on.
Yeah only if we on the message board would have listened........
In other words... is he Dante Exum or is he... I don't know... who is a good example of not having much of any role at high level of basketball even though young and then developing? After watching Dante in various Austalian national team games when he was still our big hope and him having close to zero role, I've come to really doubt that the offensive role is not to a HUGE degree a function of his actual ability and skill. IMO if they thought he can do more, he would be given the chance and responsibility to do more.
