Ive been wavering on Jabari, but this seals it.

If we were to move up in a postion to grab one of the top wings in the draft I sure as hell hope its not Jabari unless somwhow he slides into the 4 effectlivly. This from Chad Ford today.

Parker comes in on Friday and will go through a similar workout. He's not going to be as impressive athletically as Wiggins, but he's more skilled and more ready to play right now. Parker was atop Chris Grant's board all year before he was let go and there is still a strong faction in the organization that is behind Parker. But there are issues with his game. Parker is a terrific offensive player, but the team really needs someone who can start ramping up the defense. That's Parker's biggest weakness.

He's also still a bit heavy (he weighed 254 pounds with 11 percent body fat in the Bucks workout).

What the bloody **** is this!?!?!!

FAT BOY

He is not a wing player.
 
He also had this to say about Clevelands options with the pick and what they would want in a trade.

And the Jazz, if they would make Derrick Favors available in addition to the No. 5 pick, might be able to convince them as well.

Nothing new, but this keeps being repeated so maybe something to it?
 
I gave up on him as a Wing sometime last December. He just isn't.

I can't see how you justify gutting your interior defense (Favors), drafting Parker, and then playing him alongside Kanter. It would be a disaster.
 
Doesn't faze me.

Deron Williams had weight issues at Illinois, too. It's not a good weight to be at, but once it's his full-time job and he's paid millions of dollars and works with elite nutritionists/strength and conditioning coaches, he'll manage it. I don't see it being a long-term issue.

Sure hope teams 1-4 do, though...

I don't think Deron was that much overweight. So what is Parker waiting for? If he has this passion to be great he should already be in the gym remaking his body.
