Quote on Jimmer at King's Workout

Jimmer is going top 10. Too much positive press all around.

I am afraid you might be right. There aren't too many players of the year who are complete busts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naismith_College_Player_of_the_Year.

And Jimmer was dominant in NCAA, granted as a senior, but still. Led his team to #13 rankings. Plus he tested very well athletically at #12 overall: https://www.draftexpress.com/article/Analyzing-the-NBA-Combine-Athletic-Testing-Results-3728/

At the very least I think we are looking at Jameer Nelson type of success or better. Well worth #12 pick, if we are lucky enough to have him there at 12.

He'd be very good value at 12. I'm still torn, though. As much as I'd like to see the Jazz take Jimmer, I also think a bigger need is at SF and there should be a couple of decent ones available. So Sacramento taking Jimmer would solve that problem and avoid a PR nightmare. This all might be a "mute" point. For all the talk, I think Cleveland will still take Irving at #1, DWill will get drafted #2 and the Jazz will take Knight. Cleveland then takes Kanter and gets the two players they wanted all along.

Would be fun, though, if the Jazz took Kanter or DWill and Fredette were there at #12. The ESA crowd would be going crazy...JIM-MER, JIM-MER. Would KOC make it out alive of the Jazz drafted someone else under that scenario? The boos he heard when Hayward was drafted would pale in comparison.

Hahaha... that would make the World news and put Utah on the map!!!

Some friends of mine, just the other night
Went to see this cool cat rain
They said he shot so good that the roof fell in
And he didn't even stop the game

They don't remember the place,
But they remember the face,
And now everybody wanna go. Woo!

Top Jimmer cooks!
Top Jimmy swings!
He's got the look! Woo!
Top Jimmer, he's the king!

Jimmer on the television
Famous people on there with him
Jimmer on the news at five!
Jimmer on the radio and even on the video
The baddest cat alive!

Drivin' all the women crazy
All they want is Jimmer baby
Love it when he rolls his eyes!

If Jimmer were two inches taller I would LOVE him at 12. If we take Kantor over Knight, then I don't mind him at 12. It all depends on who we take at #3. That being said, I would be surprised if he is still around at 12.

If a 5 minute tape of Jimmer defensive highlights could be made after 4 years in college, I'd love Jimmer at 12.

Seeing that he had 167 steals in his college career, I suspect it would not be too hard to compile a 5 minute tape.

You are absolutely correct. A 5 minute tape of defensive highlights from 4 years of college could be made. What I wonder is how long would that tape be if you took steals out of it?
