Jabari Parker

You are way off base on this.
Jimmer with the jazz would have been nuts because he was basically the best, most nationally known byu player ever. He scored more than anyone in byu history. There was jimmer mania across the country.

There was no jabarimania. Jabari scored a total of zero points at byu. He wouldn't get the jimmer treatment if he cane to the jazz. I came promise you that.

I agree it would not be as bad but it would still be obnoxious. It was already obnoxious when he was trying to make his decision. It would have been equally obnoxious if he had chosen BYU. The only reason its not obnoxious now is because he isnt here in Utah. If he was here it would have been. We have already had more threads about Jabari than pretty much an other player with no connection or interest to the Jazz.

Where from originally (I mean if you're talking Idaho or Arizona or even parts of Nevada or Colorado it's not the same as someone coming from Arkansas)? Large LDS population there or very small?

I've talked to LDS people who grew up in places with very small LDS populations and moving to Utah changed their perception of LDS culture in a pretty big way.

Maryland. Small.

Edit: fwiw I did have relatives in Utah though, and had visited many times

I don't think the jazz acquiring Jabari parker would be an issue for anyone.
Agree to disagree I guess.

It already was an issue for me when he was being recruited by BYU fans. So I think it is safe for me to say it would be an issue for me if he was with the Jazz. I might be in the minority but I am someone so it cant be: "not an issue for anyone. "

But I would gladly forgive that obnoxious fan stuff if he was good for the Jazz. The much bigger issue is that he will be a RFA and the Bucks will match anything unless he get hurt again, in which case I probably would not want him. So the only way to get him is via trade and I dont think we have the assets to get him nor would I want to give up what it would probably require to pry him away.

I think if the jazz acquired him you would find that your worries never would manifest themselves and you would realize that you no longer have an issue with it.

Lol, I doubt it we already get that crap with some of the non mormon players like crap with Hayward and that stupid song begging him not to leave.

But the fact is we will arent going to find out anytime soon so it is a moot point.
 
I like the kid, aside from being able to ball he seems to be a good character but he has terminal knee knack and should probably be sent to a glue factory.
