Are the Jazz that high on Monroe to take him @ 5?
To me, a #5 draft pick is someone real good. Like Ricky Rubio, Jeff Green, Dwade, J-rich, Kevin Love, Vince Carter, etc. There have been a few bombs too, some foreigner that the Nuggets took and Shelden Williams. Hopefully if we do indeed get #5 we take the best player available and don't just fall in love with size.
to me, I see it being a real miracle if Monroe ends up being as good as Channing Frye. But perhaps I'm too low on him... Maybe I'm just not seeing what David Locke is seeing.
