Locke and Prospects

Grayson would not be my choice, but I would not be mad at the pick. Seems like he could be a solid bench player for the next 8-10 years. We have to realize that we are picking at #21 and most guys never amount to anything after the lottery. If we feel that Grayson is more of a sure thing, I will trust DL.

I personally would rather Frazier and hope he can turn into an Ariza type player.

You guys are nuts. Drafting Allen at 21??? That should be infuriating to you. Allen at the end of th 1st or in the 2nd? Sure. But not at 21.
 
Maybe the Jazz FO read here, and know he telegraphs things, so they are feeding him false info or telling him who to talk about.
I'd do that if I were the Jazz FO. "Don't lie, but talk about these people" because you know you aren't going to draft them.

I don't know how likely this is because I also have a hard time seeing the Jazz FO saying that. They might say to be quiet about something, but I don't think they are to the misdirection levels of gaming.
 
We're picking at #21, if he amounts to any sort of rotation player I'd say that's a win.

Honestly, I think we'll move out of #21.
 
The last two times the Jazz drafted someone I hated, one was Hayward (who ended up becoming really good but is the resident fedora of NBA "stars" and hosed us over it), the other was Trey Lyles.

Absolutely **** drafting Grayson Allen.
 
Allen looks like a good player. Its just his reputation of trying to hurt players that is the downside right? Well Draymond and CP3 are no strangers to cheap shots either. He will fit right in. We will have our own fiery hot headed guy getting under people's skin.
We have those. They just aren't petulant weasels.
 
The #21 pick is unlikely to turn into much of a player by historical standards, so I wonder how much it is worth stressing out so much about it. With that said, I'd be shocked if the Jazz drafted Allen. I'm in the Huerter camp, but that's mostly because the guys on Salt City Hoops really sold me on him; in truth, I have no f'n idea. But I figure I ought to root for someone to make this whole thing more interesting.
 
I don't want Allen. We are picking at 21, it's not a superstar we will be getting, so there is no way I want that role player at best taking away from the good vibrations, or causing drama.
