What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

I know it's just 1 game, but I now have grave concern about Ball's shooting consistency and his (in)ability to get his shots off in traffic.

It's not even that. It was the lack competitive fire. How are you going to let another top-5 prospect drop 39 on you and have nothing to show for it?

I'm still ecstatic that we didn't end up drafting Devon Booker after his 70 points today on over 50% shooting...... it's not like we needed a consistent shooter like that
Fffffaarrrkkk even half of jazzfanz wanted Booker over Lyles.
The main names we left on the board are
Booker
RHJ
Portis
All 3 I wanted more than Lyles.
Wish pacers didn't choose mules turner ahead of us either.
The lad is a machine.... turner backing up Rudy would be amazing.
Then again, Booker was the ideal choice and our FO blew it.
God I hope they either choose the absolute best shooter still available this draft and the most athletic big still around with some kind of offensive capacity

To be fair, Lonzo didn't guard Fox most of the time from what I remember

He can't hang with Fox.. As they say in sports "Speed Kills"... U really look at it objectively UCLA was much bigger and longer and had a massive advantage inside but Fox, Monk and Hawkins saved the dayy..

That type of speed/acceleration is almost like Rudy's type of length/shotblocking, U just can't simulate it in practice..
 
In all honesty if the Jazz got Hamidou DIallo with the 25th pick that might be the BPA.. All signs point to him returning, If I was him I'd test the water tho..
 
Lol@ any moron who evaluates a player for good or bad based on one game. Ball defended Fox just fine. He also defended Monk pretty well. They played a lot of zone and both guys scored a bunch against that zone or when defended by other players.

Having said that, Fox is great. While Ball has better potential to change the fortunes of a team going nowhere, Fox isn't chopped liver. Whoever gets either guy is going to be very pleased.
 
Y'all think LAvar's gonna give Lonzo the 'Baby Boy' treatment??

I just picture this for about a week straight..
