Aaron Gordon was in SLC today....
- Thread starter Beantown
- Start date
May be the Jazz will fool a team into taking Gordon higher than he should go.. that would be something.

SMH, really? maybe, just maybe he was making an example of how good he thinks he will be and that was a way to express it....just maybe
Was Boozer the last player to be brought in twice?

I'm pretty skeptical about Gordon even though he's pretty athletic. I think people get too excited and see things that aren't there... even if they could be in the future. I do like his defense, but we absolutely have to have a 3 that can hit a shot, Defense is #2 in my mind. Do you draft a Josh Smith over a Carmello Anthony, I don't think so. Have I seen enough to know if Gordon will actually be able to score in the NBA, I'm not sure. He slashes and the NBA is a whole different animal when it comes to slashers than the NCAA. Can Wiggins score in the NBA, I think so but I'm not 100% sold. Parker will be able to score, but will he be able to defend anyone, I don't know. What does this team need more of right now, defense or a legit #1 option?
tbh, I'm pretty skeptical about all of them and yet I would want/cheer for any of those 3 or Vonleh/Exum on our team. For some reason I really don't want Smart.
I wish Utah could somehow get a workout with Vonleh, Randall, and Gordon together and have them play a few of one on one games. Toronto picked Bosh over Collison because Bosh dominated Nick in a one on one game. It turned out to be the right move. If V,R, or G really want that 5th spot and the money bump they should be willing to battle for it.

I don't see how the Josh Smith over Carmelo statement is valid. There is nobody who can score at the 3 where the Jazz are at. Gordon makes the most sense.
True, if the Jazz stay at 5. I seriously think they will move up though. Just my opinion. If they move up they better not choose Gordon.
The Smith over Carmelo thought is that if you have a choice of someone that can play defense but has trouble scoring and someone that can score but sucks defensively you still have to go with the scorer. Not a perfect example as we don't know if the players discussed even remotely will turn into either of them, but is as likely of a projection as anything out there.
It's valid if we're talking Jabari vs. Gordon.
It seemed very obvious to me that he was making that comparison.
It's not like Jabari is going to be available at 5. He's saying if the Jazz traded up to get Gordon which would never happen.
