Is this Parkers first yr returning from ACL surgery? Jabari has more of shot to make an tangible affect on his team the next 2 years than the others listed.


Yes, he hasn't even played 82 total NBA games yet. He's still developing but he's shown he can play in the league. drafting outside the top 5 vs a 20 year old guy who can actually play?

Reminds me of Paul Millsap, who didn't even develop a long range game until his 8th year in the league (and 3 years at Tech). Parker at least flashed distance and can shoot - don't think he's as much of a 1 way forward as described above


Milwaukee would laugh at pretty much anything we offered them for Parker anyway (bc why take a pick when ya got a 20 yo future all star

At this point I'm like screw it let's try hitting it ourselves.

I'd love to somehow get that Toronto pick that was discussed in that other thread.

Milwaukee wouldn't trade him, but I also think he is a poor fit. We don't have 8 years for him to develop an outside shot. Also not sure what metric you are looking at to say he's not a 1 way player. Bucks are much worse on defense with him in the game. Coach K pulled him in college. He's not quick enough to guard 3's on the perimeter and he doesn't give much effort vs 4's. He will be a player in this league because he can score, but he is a poor fit to build around with Davis. He will get better, but I think he will always be a below average defender and never a good 3 pt shooter. If we didn't already have a franchise PF, then mortgaging to get Jabari makes more sense.

I also think Dumars might be aiding with the draft (not as gm, but consultant) so perhaps we can actually find a player ourselves.
