Poeltl played well. #hypeman

Stanley Johnson got it going today. Finished with 22 points, 5 rebs, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block. He was 4/5 from 3-pt.

Godz I want Johnson to fall to us.

Would you guys package Hood and our pick for Johnson?

I know most here wouldn't, but I would.

If it could land us someone like Hezonja/Johnson, would you guys rather package our pick with a.) Hood or b.) both the GS/OKC picks?

I think Hood. Because then it paves the way for Johnson to start next to Hayward next year.


Plus isn't the 2017 draft supposed to be loaded?

 

[The Midnight]

I dunno I just see Johnson as being in that mould of Jimmy Butler / Kawhi Leonard type players and you'd definitely give up Hood & Kaminsky (as an example) for a chance at a potential Butler/Leonard wouldn't you?

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

If the Jazz believe in Johnson's shooting, I think they'd trade out Hood to move up for him. Hopefully Hood plays well enough to drive up his value.

I'd trade the picks. Protect the Jazz 2017 pick, but keep Hood. If the rookie beats out Burks and Hood, they can always swing Hood to backup Johnson/Hayward at SF and Alec can still wreck havoc off the bench behind whoever the starting SG is.

Towns with an impressive line today of

21 points (8-12 FG; 5-6 FT)
11 rebounds
3 blocks

Booker with a not so nice stat line of

2 points (1-6 FG; 0-2 3PT)

That team from the Hamptons didn't have any size. Towns could turn and get a lay-up whenever he wanted more or less.

For all the Oubre's fan out there... here's his back story.

Bullet point summary:

- Self has nothing but praise for him (!!!! Enough said !!!)

- Oubre has "SACRIFICE" tattooed on his stomach (Tim Duncan would approve)

- Picutre of a Jazz player & a pelican on his right arm (was obv. born to join the Jazz)

- "FEAR" and "God" on left and right arm (respect)


Conclusion: GREAT character guy and should fit right in with our high character CORE (no joke)
