And obviously Burke over Giannis is the worst pick of all time for teh Jazz.

I loved Giannis. Loved that DL was one of the first guys reported to have checked him out in Greece. Thought there was a great chance he’d be there at 14 and he was exactly the kind of “swing-for-the-fences” pick that the Jazz desperately needed.

Was SO disappointed that we traded up for Burke (who was one of my least favorite prospects that year along with Olynyk) and then felt a little better when I found out we traded back up for Gobert. Really liked the Euro guys that year. Giannis, Rudy, Steven Adams and Dennis Schroder were probably my top 4 favorite players (+ Otto Porter as my top 5 favorites.)

Hopefully he plays well enough it only costs the jazz a second round pick to unload him.

Just don’t pick up the next year of his contract. Let him hit RFA and allow the market to determine his value - no need to send assets out. Especially during a tank season.

Can also add him onto a deal for Bogey or Clarkson and swap 2 for 1 to open up a roster spot. Same thing for Butler if need be.

Completely inexcusable in every way.

Giving away all the assets for Conley when CP3 was basically free is another killer.

If you had told me during Mitchell's rookie year, that he would become a legitimate top 10 player in the league, but I'd still be completely checked out on a Jazz season....

I won't say they are a terrible front office on a league wide level. But it cannot be disputed that at the critical moment(s) they absolutely choked. This era is going to fizzle out soon, and there will be some turning point moments to look back at. And for each one of them, I'm not sure our FO could have done a worse job. Any rando on this board given power in those moments, and the team is in much better shape right now.

Shame.

It was an awful pick but bringing up Chris Paulnis laughable. 98% of this board wanted nothing to do with him and thought he was cooked.
 
I booooo'd at my TV when it happened. I went to be pissed off. It was TBradley all over again when we already had Gobert.

No need for insurance plans on centers or to anticipate Gobert moving on. It was win now time.

It feels now like DL was submarining Quin while Quin was losing the locker room.
 
I remember thinking “we need a wing so bad” and McDaniels just fell right into our lap, while Bane was on the board too.

I figured it had to be one of those two guys.

Guess the scouting department did too. Not sure what went down or why, but it almost feels like DL decided to sabotage his career and the team. Especially since adding Favors was going to happen and everyone seemingly knew it.

I read the first page so maybe this was brought up in the latter pages……but Don is not a top 10 player.

Just needs to be said.
