You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to NUMBERICA again.

I have to wait 24 hours :(

I listened to the draft on the radio 8000 feet up in the mtns and was very happy/impressed and just got home to get on jazzfanz and get in on the discussions..... Ran out of the ability to rep in like 30 seconds.
 
I basically blew my load in reps all over jazzfanzers faces...... You're welcome

I just woke up and my very first thought was, "Wow.. my head hurts."

Followed immediately by, "Wow.. what an amazing, franchise-changing, draft night."

Followed by, "Okay... wtf happened, again??"

So, here's some recaps for any of you whose head is swimming like mine was;

~ The Jazz ended the draft night with 3 new players - TREY BURKE, RUDY GOBERT, and RALPH NADER (Raul Neto).

That is a draft of epic proportions. Yes, it was a weak draft, but the JAZZ FO raped it. Killed it. A+ to the whole FO.

Random thoughts;

- Dalamon ... Good on ya. Pimping Burke waaaaaay before pimping Burke was cool. Shout out!!! Now, PLEASE stop referring to him as Black Jesus. TIA.
- Sepanol ... Mentioning Raul here 2 years ago was pretty Neto. Kudos.
- To my sources... they were DEAD ON. I knew the Jazz were making their way for Burke as priority #1 with CJ as backup... at the moment Zeller was taken (not sure why, at this point), I was told Burke was 'on.' I was texting with UGLI and I got so excited about 14/21 for Burke (I got the news about 5 minutes before it was announced).. I simply said to UGLI, "THAT's the TRADE!" THat. Was. Fun.

Now my head is already swimming with trying to figure out how good/bad we'll be next year... for the next draft. lol
But, I'll refrain and just enjoy the moment.

Ladies and Gentlemen, our new on-court LEADER.

If the black Jesus nickname offends people, then ill stop using it.

It was just fun photoshopping Burke into Jesus pics :P Trey 'Lunchpail' Burke also works for me
 
Yeah guys. I mean KOC alone was a top 5 GM. You bring Lindsey, and now it's just not fair.



I think this offseason easily propels us among the NBA elite in terms of front offices. We are really working this rebuild out damn well.
 
absolutely in disbelief. I didn't see this coming in a million years. I haven't been this exited about the jazz since they were in the finals. can't wait to see what Lindsey pulls out of his hat at the trade deadline with the cap space!

I'm already happy. Would love to somehow use space to pick up another high pick next year... addicted to drafting.

Well, what if Lindsey does nothing at the trade deadline, drafts a high pick and uses the cap space on new contracts and extensions for the players we already have such as Hayward, Favors, Kanter and Burks? Sooner or later they are going to start eating up more money.

Would ya'll be OK with that?
 
I don't know what the financial strategy is.

Incidentally, with the Kings picking McClemore in the draft, there might be a better chance of getting Tyreke Evans as a FA if that interests anyone.

Yes I would be ok with that (assuming that burks, Hayward, kanter, favors deserve big contracts)
