Does Jabari Parker have a chance at slipping past the 4th overall pick?

You're doing it wrong, black-Dala. You STATE it WILL be DONE.. and that's it. None of this, "let's hold hands and pray that something likely won't happen, but then again, might.. so let's hope... "

I thought you already said Adios.

if we got Jabari at 5. ROCK hard

getting moldy cause I didn't keep it clean

Lol @ people actually believing he could slide to 5.

It's not happening folks.

It's like everyone is losing their minds around here. Vonleh? Really? Picked ahead of Jabari? Very funny.

Jabari will be the best player in this draft. He should go 1. No way he goes past 3.


I can't wait to be bumping all these threads with the Jabari hate and Vonleh love. It's not even going to be close who is better.

 

[fishonjazz]

Top 3 will be embiid parker and wiggins in some order.

Always will be

Lol

I can't believe this thread was even created

 

[Fishsticks]

No reason to hate. It's fun to speculate and hope even if it is not likely.

The quote about guarding the floor was made on the John Feinstein show during a stretch when Duke was struggling and Coach K blamed himself for notinstalling the proper fundamentals with his team. I think his brother had passed away in the past year or two and Coach K said that he was not focused on the task at hand. I thought Jabari got schooled in the Mercer loss in the NCAAs.

To be fair Jabari sucked against just about everybody after the first 6 or 7 games of the season.

Apparently averaging 18 and 9 on 44% shooting sucks. I love this site, and it's basketball "analysis".



- those stats were taken after the first 7 games.

I'm starting to think that you had an absentee father who was Tongan. Occasionally he would come around the house and beat your ***. You've hated life ever since, over-ate to mask your sadness, and now you blame your Tongan father for your love handles.

And 28% 3pt. For a guy who is supposed to be a shooter and is a top 3 pick based almost solely on his ability to shoot and score the ball, yes, 44 and 28 is bad.

Start making up unfunny, unimaginative jokes, that might miraculously improve Parker's shooting. Hell, it's worth a shot anyway.

I don't see it happening, but will play along.

1. CLE - Embiid. They need to go big and while any of these guys are more talented than what they have, I think they'll take size over athleticism.

2. MIL - Wiggins. Giannis can slide over to SG and you could even stick Wiggins there. Either way, size mismatches at the 2 and 3 and they'll take the gamble on talent since they're not going to be winning anytime soon.

3. PHI - Exum. A gasp goes up from the crowd as Philly decides that a backcourt of Exum/MCW creates mismatches that will haunt defenses for years. Jazz might try and leap up but the cost of #23 and GS future #1 too much.

4. ORL - Smart. They have Oladipo, but were in love with Smart last year and are determined to have him run the point. Again, interchangeable positions, put the best players on the floor being the mantra.

5. UTA - Parker. LDS conversions accelerate 700%, Book of Mormons get studded with diamonds.
