What wins championships in the NBA?
I agree with Hotnickkk and White Chocolate on this one, if we are building a championship team and what has been quoted over and over again this past season since Dennis Lindsey took over by multiple people who cover this team and by Mr. Lindsey himself, this team needs a defensive identity, so do we draft the player who is really good on the offensive side but even his own college coach wouldn't keep him on the court at the end of games because his defense is a liability so much so Coach K knew to win that they needed defense more than his offense. I promise you, When Aaron Gordon develops his shot enough to where he is hitting corner 3's at 40+% that he will be a better player! It may take a season or two with the NBA training and coaches.
Jabari Parker barring any injury will win Rookie of the Year because the voters love offense. Don't get me wrong I was hoping so much that Jabari would of come to BYU to play and I will even say if the Jazz decided to move up and draft Jabari then I am confident Dennis Lindsey and company know what they are doing that, I will know it was the right decision to draft Jabari. But I just don't see that happening, if they are moving up it's for Andrew Wiggins, the one thing I am afraid of for that is Andrew didn't enforce his will onto any game and doesn't have that 'Alpha Dog' mentality like Aaron Gordon does. Sometimes when watching Kansas last year I would look around on the court to see if Wiggins was still in the game, on multiple occasions. With Aaron Gordon, I knew he was on the court because the dude never stops hustling and is enforcing his will on others.
I will be bold enough to say and one up Hotnickkk, when Aaron Gordon develops his shot enough to where teams respect it then Aaron Gordon will be the best player out of this draft, better than Embiid because his injury history has me scared and better than Wiggins because Andrew won't ever be the top dawg being enough of an enforcer.
