Draft Day grade - A+

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Can Burke be our Mike Conley? Too optimistic? Not optimistic enough?

Don't see the comp in terms of style, but in quality and importance, yes.

Their measurements are nearly identical (height, reach). Styles are completely different.




Burke is much more of a floor general, tbh. Very unique player-- not really like any other current PG.

I have hopes for Gobert.

I could name a few...

Was just thinking that!!

And now Raul Neto. Still holding out hope for Jeff Whitey.

 

[Litany]

Already done.

Did you already state what two players you would have taken instead? I want to see them so in a year we can all ask ourselves why a team hasn't hired you as their GM.

The Jazz squeezed every ounce of value out of this draft. They traded up to 9 from 14. They replenished their other 1st-round pick by getting 26 for 46 and cash. Then they turn around and get 47 for a future 2nd round pick.

It amounts to getting Trey Burke for 14 + a future 2nd-round pick + some cash.

Easy A+. The Jazz didn't really give up anything but cash to get what they got.

This.



I am shocked, and very grateful. Dennis Lindsey is amazing.

And we had cash in spades, so it doesn't hurt AT ALL

This draft exceeded all my expectations. It's been a long time since I felt this good about being a Jazz fan.
