What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

So once again catchall is wrong and you proved it right here. Great job WC. By the way informs question. Why the screen name? Was you a fan of Jason williams? Do u like black females? Why the screename .I'm just curious. Williams was a flashy passer no doubt and competitive . Would not been awesome to see him tossing up oops to Randy Moss in high school

I could see us looking back on this draft years from now and Malik Monk very well should have been the #1 pick

He has the potential to shoot like Curry and guard him.
 
Ball. I have my concerns about Ball's transition to the NBA. His shot mechanics, his low free throw attempt rate, his lack of a midrange game at this point, and his iso ability is a question mark. But I have bigger concerns with Fox. I can't find one PG in the recent NBA who shot 3's as poorly as he did in college and had any type of sustained success in the NBA. 24.6% is historically bad. And it's not like he was great in high school either, he was 34% for his career. I'm also concerned about his size. 170 pounds with a super thin frame. He may struggle to put on weight. That lack of size and jumpshot could lead to him taking a beating in the paint. I wouldn't take Fox in the top 10 personally.

His shot is a huge concern.
His size/weight/strength will be just fine.. I have zero concerns there.

His midrange is good and he started last season hitting like 22 straight free throws so there's reason to have some measured optimism in his shot... but I wouldn't bet on it.

Locke was very open about his love for Lyles, but it was clear that if you went through the top 12 players in that draft that Lyles was not likely to go higher than 12. The Jazz also really liked Winslow, Johnson and Turner and were hoping that one of them would fall to them.

Exum wasn't going to fall further than 5 regardless of who was drafting. The Jazz were expecting to take Gordon and were pleasantly surprised when Exum was available. To say the Jazz liked Exum if he fell to them was a no-brainer.
 
Jazz usually tend to draft players that aren't too flashy, seems out of place during rookie rising stars game and well disciplined. For instance, Dante, Burke, Lyles and perhaps Hood. If you go by that Tony Bradley is the one player that will be that guy. I'll say Tony Bradley with the 30th pick if the pick doesn't get traded.

The Jazz are probably debating Bell, Lessort and Bradley around #30 if they keep that pick. If they go with a guard there, it's more likely to be Hart than anyone else, imo.
 
He
Be out of the league after first contract. Syrauce players suck on defensive end and he isn't a top flight athlete and I just see bust but I also see the jazz falling in love cuz he is white and will put on a shooting show with no one guarding him. He is fools gold is stay far away. He isn't close to Brian Cook who came into the league as a late first rounder and known as a shooter. Jazz picking him i can almost guarantee it

Wow, epic bad take.
 
I'm really curious to know how the Jazz see Ojeleye. Walt Perrin was saying he's too slow to guard 3s. If they really feel that way, they probably won't take him.
