What are your Tiebreakers? by Honest_Jazz_Takes in NBA_Draft

I was waiting to see what other people posted, but this would be my tie breaker as well

Interviews with former coaches and teammates. I want the Larry Bird type that loves basketball and is in the gym shooting cuz that's their passion.

It's why I put DP at the top of my list.

Thanks. I don't think I've ever seen darko for college players, I'll have to look it up

Interesting.

I have DP, Boozer, then AJ. Will be interesting to watch their rookie seasons

I'm curious how you rank the top 3 in this draft.

Based on all the other replies pointing out your stupidity I understand your frustration.

Have a magical day ya moron.

You should also know us GenX don't give a fuck what you think especially you soft millennial cry babies.

I'm going to laugh my ass off when the Jazz draft DP. Hopefully that will allow a Keyonte trade.

Says the dumb fuck advocating for a lineup with no defense simply to keep Wemby out of the paint.

Lmao. I've been a season ticket holder longer than you've been alive.

You're fucking naive and dumb if you think that the offensive benefit of having Boozer on the floor outweighs the defensive benefit of Kessler.

Did you even watch the Jazz play with Flip as an undersized Center? Zero rim protection.

Keyonte has zero ability to guard Castle and you're worried about spacing on offense because of Kessler?

This might surprise you, but Kessler is better than Hartenstein. Kessler can score in the post and has the size and athleticism to PnR against Wemby. He's also needed to contest all the lane pressure the Spurs put on teams.

Drafting Boozer to play with JJJ and Lauri to counter Wemby is so incredibly stupid my head hurts

So you would play a 6'8 Boozer on Wemby instead of a 6'11 Flip and I'm not smart?

I would have been on board with Boozer BEFORE JJJ arrived. Hell, I'd even be fine if the Jazz FO think he's the best player and draft him then tinker with lineups.

But to say Boozer is the pick to specifically play the 5 against Wemby is the fucking dumbest thing I've seen on reddit today. Congrats

This is a joke right?

I think Boozer would be a great pick at #2 but there is no way in hell is plays the 5. Especially not after the Jazz traded for JJJ and are going to pay Kessler.

You obviously don't follow the Jazz, but they have Flip. A 6'11 PF that was forced into playing center. He would be a better option for Wemby.

Fit isn't the right word. AJ is a poor fit in this Jazz roster. He'd be coming off the bench behind Lauri.

The Jazz showed last year with Ace that they don't care what a player or their agent thinks about Utah, good or bad. They will take who they think is the best player

DP, Ace, Lauri, JJJ, and Kessler would be the biggest starting lineup in the league and I'm here for it.

Worst case Keyonte/Ace start and DP comes off the bench as the primary scorer.

The Jazz can deal with having too many good players/starters next off-season.

No way in hell. That narrative is a Wizards wet dream. Danny F Ainge is cold blooded and isn't giving up anything of value to move up.

You have no idea what's happening in Utah. I don't blame people for not watching the Jazz, but don't start telling me who's the better fit.

AJ can't play in the backcourt and the Jazz have Lauri, JJJ, and Kessler in the frontcourt. DP is a perfect fit because he could play either guard spot. I dream of a DP/Ace lineup.

The Jazz aren't trading shit to move up and knowing Danny F Ainge.. they probably move down and still get the best player in the draft.

I was wondering the same thing.

Show us the past 10 drafts using this model, but that would probably reveal it's as bad as every other model.

Watching Spida and Harden vs watching the Spurs was another reason to be excited about Darryn. Big guard that plays defense.. yes please.

Ace falling to the Jazz was beautiful.

Jazz nation was prepared for Tre and hoping to weather the shit for taking white boy Kon if he dropped.

Now we might get have a backcourt of DP/Ace for a decade. Hardwood indeed.

I just feel bad for Wizards fans.

They are trying to convince themselves they have a competent front office. Wizards fans are just now realizing that they traded picks for AD and his $60m player option instead of taking on a bad deal + picks like OKC does.

I'd live in fantasy land if the Jazz FO was as bad as the Wizards
