Jazz select Grayson Allen at 21

I really see the resemblance lol he will now trip you for this post lmao

But he looks like ****ing He-Man?

I just like that his last name starts with Al and his first name starts with something that rhymes with gay. Gotta riff Big Gay Al from South Park under those circumstances.

Get better at drafting 2nd rounders. This front office has two assistant GMs (one who has worked as a legit GM for years). Or ****, just look at the BPA ticker at the bottom of the screen and go "Okay, that guy."

We can uncover obscure guys playing in euro leagues but suck at picking second round guys?

It’s just strange... I’d like for someone to ask him and keep probing.

I think a PG who can shoot like Okobo can would give the Jazz a higher ceiling. I'm just trying to look at things from the Jazz's perspective. They seem pretty comfortable with the team they have and may not believe they have the space to develop Okobo. Just guessing really. They may see Allen and Mitchell as potentially running a two-guard front down the line.

I think the Jazz probably see more value in having Mitchell slide over to the 1 when Rubio sits. Donovan is essentially the backup PG. Even if you call him the SG, he still will be the dominant ball handler sans Rubio. Jazz needed a "making guard" more than another PG.

Nothing to do with his looks lol its name play. But actually come to think of it, he looks like skelator

Then let me do it... quick simulation.

I call DL... he picks up...

“Hey this KBD guy that you worked out... good shooter and has the longest arms ever... he was supposed to be picked like 15-20 picks ago... I see a lot of picks being moved... what do you say we trade with a team for one of those... we have extra picks and we can use some cash we’ve banked the last few years.”

DL: did he go to Duke or Baylor?

Me: no but good players can be picked from any college.

DL: k I’m on it... good talk.

Me: also, can you tell Danny Ainge to eff off for me? TIA

Eh. I think what DL has been doing has been working.
Agree to disagree.

Can’t wait for next season. I really really like the roster that DL has assembled.

Hilarious, Numberica. But I agree.
I find it fascinating that in the Lindsey era the Jazz bring in what, about 70-80 guys? I think the first couple of years it was closer to 90. Maybe it was fewer this year; I remember Dennis saying they were going to cut down.

But all those players, year after year, and not one "hidden gem." Not even a winning DLeague team stocked with talent Lindsey and Perrin may have discovered. On the contrary, Lindsey has traded out or sold 2nd round picks, or picked scrubs that never sniffed the roster.

It's like he just gives up after the 1st round, shuts down the war room and takes everyone out to a 4-star restaurant to celebrate, using the money he acquired from selling picks.

I think it has more to say how well managed the organization is than how bad they are with second rounders. I'm mean, they're second rounders. Teams have hard enough times picking lottery players.

Then we should sell our first rounders too... I mean most of those guys don’t pan out... plus if we hit on more of them how would we pay all the talent.

Def some real solid potential.

**** this dude and **** Butler.

Oh I like DL. He’s great and is a wonderful communicator... think he really sets the tone... just think we have a couple blind spots... this stuff is hard and DL has been fairly direct in saying there is luck involved.

**** this dude and **** Butler.

We gonna act like we signing him to a real nba contract... then release a post on our blog... “Thank you Kelan”

Announce we’ve cut him and never call or text.
