I agree with ya. Parker is the safe bet and i think he would be an amazing stretch 4 on the jazz.... having said that i would still prefer wiggins.
But i agree with you, i would almost rather have the 2nd or 3rd pick rather than the first..... almost.

I'd put Parker at the 3, and whoever we keep from Burks and Hayward at the 2. Burke at the 1. Favors at the 4, and maybe Kanter at the 5 if he ever develops a shred of defense.

Otherwise, if we get Burks for cheap and we retain Hayward, then we could play Parker at the 4 as well

Burke
Burks
Hayward
Parker
Favors

that's a damn-nice core. There won't be a lotta touches for all, but it'll be a nice core nonetheless.

Parker is a 4 in the league, imo. He's a massive defensive liability defending sf's in the NBA... like embarrassingly bad, I bet.
I think he's be strong enough to handle most PF's but could be very difficult for PF's to defend.

Situational sf, sure.. but a PF.

Was gonna say the same thing.
Parker would get killed defensively by small forwards.
Hes got dat poly blood in him so i think he will only get bigger and stronger..... plus he is playing center for duke so he already being trained as a big.

He will be an amazing stretch four imo... probably the best that the league has ever seen
 
Did I mention that Embiids back problems concern me?

"@franfraschilla: KU's Joel Embiid headed to California today to see back specialist tomorrow. Can't be great news even if precautionary."

This could be a good thing..... hopefully gm's are concerned as well and he falls to the 7th spot to us.

I will take an embiid with back health question marks over gordon, vonleh, saric, etc
 
We're gonna get boned in this draft. We'll be left not getting a future all-star and DL will make some moves for a couple quality players...
 
crazy finish to regulation in this Maryland - UVA game.... Prime example of when fouling up 3 with just a few seconds left goes wrong

I think I'd take Jabari over Wiggins. I think this team needs a home-run draft pick in terms of offensive production, and I think Jabari gives us a higher chance at that.

Jabari is more of a sure thing, whereas Wiggins is the gamble. I'd hate (to be the Jazz GM) and get the 1st overall pick of this draft, cuz I'd have an *** of a time deciding between Embiid, Wiggins and Parker

Even though I want Wiggins, I wouldn't be upset if they took Parker if they get the top pick. Hell, even Embid I'd be happy with (and if he really is the next Hakeem how do you not take him...but I certainly can't judge that) though I do want one of the SFs.

Around this time last year he measured 6'9 in shoes. Basketball is played in shoes. 6'9 is decent PF size.

*Swear to God if Fabtrey lectures me on 1/4 of an inch I will murder someone*

i'm leaning towards him being 6ft 7 barefoot. derrick williams tweener mold. if he is 6ft 9 with shoe on then he just improved his stock for solid top 8. he could really fall if he comes in at 6ft 6. like late teens to early 20's fall.

but i would still take him at #8 ish regardless of his measurement. i love these offensively challenged willing defender. he could be joakim noah of 3 sometimes 4. guys with heart.

Don't sleep on Gobert as the future of the Jazz at center. He rebounds and defends at least as well as Favors does.
