Enough of this Shane Larkin at #14 ****.
Let's put it to a vote.
BTW - I'm saying a big fat "No".

he's not to far off from it. Its depends on who is there. This draft could end up a lot different than the mocks. I have him somewhere in the mid teens as far as rankings. He isnt as bad as people are making him out to be. He has potential to be good. Dont put so much into size. Thats not what seperates stars from scrubs. Its all in the fight and IQ of the player. Just look at who is the second best player in the finals right now. Its Tony Parker. He isnt very big.
Obviously NBN hasn't seen this thread yet, nobody has yet to vote "Yes".

Nay, because McCollum or MCW should hopefully be available and if not trade Burks or picks to move up to get McCollum or MCW. I prefer we take big at 14, Wolters at 21, and A good wing or back up point at 46.

My distaste for him doesn't have much to do with his height.

I think a lottery pick should at least have a chance to crack the starting lineup. Larkin doesn't. No doubt he might develop into a change of pace PG, but those types of guys are available in the latter half of every draft.

where did you even get that faith? Have you looked at what was said about pasts drafts? Wasnt honz one of the only ones hyping Hayward and everyone else was saying the opposite? Why would you expect the Majority of Jazzfanz to get it right? Wasnt Evan Turner voted number one overall on this board back in 2010?
hell, Im willing to be that if you go against the grain here, then you will probably be more right than wrong.
Trey Burke #1 overall? really? c'mon... give me a break. lol

I didnt want any help. I got this.
Its like having that friend who is bad gambler. You take the bets against him and just take his money, or like housing 21. Free money.
I just take the opposite of what the majority here thinks and I come out ahead. I dont even have to scout the players.
Fair enough. Hack.
Most lopsided poll ever created on JazzFanz?

The Fire Corbin polls were just as or more lopsided.
Larkin is at worst an excellent back up. How many players picked at 14 are more than this? I take Larking @ 14 all day! I'm cooling on the German Steve Nash quite a bit. Dude is way too skinny and other that hoops summit what has he done? I see major bust potential. I'll admit I bought into it for a while. But I'm over it. Give me Larkin!

LOL!
In any other draft Larkin is a late 1st rounder/2nd round pick.
Drafting Larkin at 14 makes the kings drafting of the Jimmer in the lottery look good.
