Utah Jazz Select Walter Clayton Jr, Pick 18 (Trade)

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

Speaking of which, the Nets draft was HILARIOUS! It reminded me of the Minny draft when they picked Ricky Rubio (5th), Jonny Flynn (6th), skipping over some kid named Steph AND then going for Ty Lawson with the 18th. 3 point guards in a row.

Egor Demin (Can't shoot, can pass)
Nolan Traore (Can't shoot, can pass)
Drake Powell
Ben Saraf (Pass first guard)
Danny Wolf (Point Center)

So funny!

So who did they pass over that is so good (Steph Curry)?

 

[framer]

He isnt anything like Burke...

Understood, but even if that were his floor, he was a successful pick. Dude is not going to be out of the league in 3 years.

I think what he is saying is Trey Burke was the leader for a college team that went to the championship game just like WCJ. They are different players but they both led their collegiate teams to the championship game and both rose up the draft boards as a result of it.

That's that not the point. They grabbed 4 pass first guys who need the ball in their hands to be effective. The question is which of those guys will have the ball? And who is going to actually shoot the ball efficiently when they all pass it around to each other?

You just draft 5 guys every year and keep the best one. Seems like a sustainable strategy. Next year draft rebounders.

These are young balls of clay. We dont know how they turn out.

Listened to the Ringer’s draft pod. Said Clayton shot 42.4% in transition, 39.something% off screens, and 37.something% off the dribble from 3

We likely need to get to 31-33. Please suggest how we do that for reasonable value. TIA

Suns showed us how it's done

Did I ever say that it was impossible? What do you think you're proving to me right now?

aight, I'm 100% drinking the Koolaid on this pick.
This kid is an amazing shooter off-the-dribble. He's gonna have serious gravity.
