Definitely going Exum. His playmaking potential is thru the roof. I have nothing against Gordon either. I'll be fine with the Jazz picking him, but less so if Exum is on the board. And this is from someone who still wants Smart.

Why not take Exum at 5 and then see if you can get another lottery pick. Jazz send 2016, #23 and Trey Burke to Sactown for #8 (Isiah Thomas is want a big contract which they can't afford). Jazz can take back a bad contract if need be. #8 - you take Gordon if he is still there or Vonleh or Randle or Saric or McDermott or you go back further and pick up later pick and another assets to take Staukas.

Exum
Hayward
Gordon or #8
Favors
Kanter

Neto
Alec Burks
Hayward SF or another draft pick -acquired from moving down.
Gordon
Gobert

Lineups would be adjusted based upon who we got with the #8 pick. Yes I know it has no chance of happening but since I don't want to make the decision between Exum and Gordon, I want both. LMAO. ;)

I do like that idea, highly unlikely but might be possible.
 
LOL..



Most even Poll EVER. Only fitting that they went #4 and #5 respectively. (18 vs 18 at the time of this writing).



We'll see who's a better prospect in a year or two.
 
Well getting Hood takes away some of the sting from not getting Gordon but I am very happy with Exum. I didn't vote because I didn't know enough about Exum and I was a Gordon homer early on. I will watch his career and hope he has a nice career but I think Exum excites me too. Jazz have filled their depth chart in the backcourt with size, speed, shooting and athleticism. Another home run for DL. I just hope Jordan Clarkson doesn't blow up in LA because I wanted the Jazz to pick him with #35.
 
Well, the nice part is, it's really hard to second guess what we did at #5.

Gordon vs. Exum would have been a legitimate debate, but Orlando took care of that for us at #4.

Personally, I liked Smart (not over Exum), was meh on Vonleh, and wanted no part of Randle at #5. Exum was the clear cut choice once Gordon was off the board.
