This was so crazy
I don't get it. At all.
What have a zillion first round picks done for 95% of teams actually using them? Only top 10 picks means much in the draft. We can all point to exceptions over the years. Including Stockton and Malone. We can also point to MULTIPLE top 5 picks over the years. And a lot of those are busts! They are chips for trade. Jazz are NOT a free agent destination. But we absolutely need to tank to try to get lucky one more time in the draft.
