It's only changed from I think we will trade up to we probably won't.

I haven't changed my tune on whether or not we should trade up. Or if the Jazz will try to. I think the Jazz will try hard to.. I still say sell the farm to go get Jabari. I still say Jabari is a beast.

Not much has changed except your tune about Jabari.

lol.

You can rifle back through my posts if you want, but I've been consistently weary of the hype around Jabari ever since it became clear that he'd struggle to guard SFs. I've always thought he was a great prospect, but I've had him behind Wiggins and Embiid since the first week of the college season.

You know, I was thinking. Embiid wasn't having any problems with his foot. Scouts said that he was looking very impressive in his workouts so far. Even that youtube video of him looked good. He wasn't in pain or anything. The injury really didn't take him out. It's what the cavs medical team found in his examination that made him get the surgery. He didn't even know he had a fracture, he was just playing basketball.

I was thinking about this, too. I'm not passing on Embiid, if he falls to us at #5.
 
Jazz get Jabari. That is the one thing I am sure of.

Last year I was sure they would get gobert. And they got him. I had a bunch they would get Burke, and they got him. It's happening. The chosen Tongan is going to grace our presence this week.

FYI, Kevin Love isn't worth a #1 pick in this draft (or most drafts).

I'll bet:
1) Aaron Gordon won't go top 6.
2) Randle will get drafted before Gordon.
3) Vonleh will go top 5. He's the LMA of this draft.
4) Jazz will offer Philly #5, #23 and Philly's choice of Burke, Burks or GSW '17 1st to move up to #3. Philly will say no.
5) Jazz will draft Vonleh or Exum at #5.
6) Word will come out sooner or later that the Jazz didn't feel Smart was a "real point guard."

I'll take a bet on #4. No way that happens.
