Friday, May 24 It took the porcupine millions of years to evolution to develop its quills. It takes Birdman 20 minutes in front of a mirror.
Check out the @Chad Ford report on Michael Carter Williams today. If teams believe he can shoot he never gets to #14 in the draft

Thursday, May 23 Per reports from @Bill Oram Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors both returning to Team USA minicamp in Las Vegas July 22-25.
Enes Kanter played 1000 mins and per 36 minutes averaged 17 pts and 10 rebs puts him in nice company fb.me/2l6lLSErJ
Just for the record if I had voted Kobe was my 3rd team all-nba G - Paul, Parker on 1st Westbrook, Harden on 2nd then Kobe - all in West.

Just finished a terrific podcast with @Chad Ford - Draft lovers you will really like this - great thoughts on point guards
All-NBA centers, in descending order: Duncan, Gasol, Dwight. One voter put Big Al on the first team.
Jazz C Al Jefferson got more All-NBA votes (20) than Deron Williams (6). Much tougher to find room for good guards than centers, though.
Jazz play on July 7, 9, 10, 11 and 12 at the Orlando Pro Summer League. As was previously rumored, it will be a tournament format this year.
All-NBA first team: LeBron, Durant, The Big Fundamental, Kobe and Li'l Coach Killer (CP3, not D-Will).
All-NBA voting was just released. Surprisingly, Jazz C Al Jefferson got one first-place vote and would be on the fifth team if that existed.

TIP OFF - weareutahjazz.com/lockedonjazz/?… - Where do the Jazz find a point guard and looking at Vogel's choice to have Hibbert on the bench
Got to love diehard Jazz fans, several of whom asked if I counted Jordan's push-off on Bryon Russell in his playoff foul total.
Michael Jordan committed 541 fouls in 7,474 minutes in the playoffs in his career. That's one every 13.8 minutes.
In his career, LeBron has committed 293 fouls in 5,396 minutes in the playoffs. That's one every 18.4 minutes, if my calculator is correct.
LeBron 15 fouls in 355 minutes vs. 9 playoff games vs. Milwaukee, Chicago. Five fouls in 47 minutes tonight vs. Indy.
Hindsight, I know. But why would Indy allow LeBron to get the ball on the inbounds pass? Surround him. He didn't even have to work for it.

Quick note to Jazz fans - Roy Hibbert entered the league at 22 years old, is now 26 - Favors is currently 21 and Kanter turned 21 yesterday

Wednesday, May 22 Key play of the night with 4:10 left in the 4th Q - LeBron hits the 3 off the Cole pass from the Hibbert block of Wade drive. Needed all 3
I wonder if somebody came straight down and landed on Birdman's head whether they would be impaled on his spiked Mohawk.
Juggalos lining up outside the Complex. @tribmarty has a great idea for a personal essay: "A Neil Diamond fan undercover at an ICP concert"
Quick, someone alert @Benjamin Hochman: Voodoo Doughnut is opening a location in Denver. oregonlive.com/dining/index.s…
A few followers last night called it, but @sbnation reads Randy Rigby's lips after landing No. 14 last night. bit.ly/14OYyll
Or, if confusion isn't your thing, tune in to 1280. That's where you'll hear me with @ScottyG1280. Sorry 'bout that.
Following April surgery, #Jazz C Enes Kanter will miss #summerleague, may not be cleared until August. bit.ly/Ze2Wf8 @sltrib #NBA
I'd like to be the guy who introduces ex-Redskins/Raiders QB Jay Schroeder to future #Jazz PG Dennis Schroeder. #pronunciation
... and, of course, add Marvin Williams to the previous tweet. Williams, Williams, Carter, Carter-Williams. #potentialconfusion
The idea of Micheal Carter-Williams is intriguing only if the Jazz keep Mo Williams and acquire Vince Carter thru free agency. #jerseysales
Saw a mock on NBAdraft.net that has the #Jazz taking 3 PGs. Carter-Williams at No. 14, Larkin at No. 21 and Kabongo in 2nd. #hmmmm

New at @Jonathan Givony mock draft draftexpress.com/nba-mock-draft… has the Jazz taking Dennis Schoerder PG from Germany at 14 and Tony Mitchell at 21
Lindsey brought up this interesting fact: "We were evaluating players older than Gordon." Hayward turned 23 years old in March.
GM Dennis Lindsey on Chicago combine: "As you can imagine, there were a few guards that are aware we don't have anybody under contract."
Jazz GM Dennis Lindsey says draft has good athleticism, and "it’s our job to go find some guys who could help contribute to our club.”
Dennis Lindsey: "We had done all of our work up to this point with 14 in mind and if we moved up we're playing with the house's money."
Best players picked No. 14? Peja, Drexler, Majerle, Tim Hardaway. Best all-time 14er? Yinka Dare, I say.
Is there an extensive process one must go through in order to become a "draft expert" or do you just, you know, hang out a shingle?
Cleveland lottery kid has now stuck it to Utah, Minnesota, Orlando and Washington in the last three years.
Cleveland wins the lottery. Orlando, with a 25 percent chance at No. 1 pick, will pick second.
"Oh baby, this NBA draft lottery is so exciting my head might explode!" -- Nobody. #Draftlotto
From Jazz perspective - after #14 lottery went as well as you could hope no Western team got top 3 - Portland, Minnesota stayed in spots
The Jazz had a radio station percent chance (98.2) of landing the No. 14 pick. No surprises. #Draftlotto
Utah did not defy its long-shot odds in the 2013 NBA Draft Lottery. Jazz will have picks Nos. 14, 21 and 46 in the June 27 draft.
So far, judging by the expressions on the stand, I'd say there's a good chance someone starts crying or pees his pants. #Draftlotto
Among lottery representatives, the kid from Cleveland looks like Donnie Nelson ... or vice versa.
I haven't been this excited about ping-pong balls since Russia’s Maxim Shmyrev beat Nigeria’s Sule Olaleyewon for the world championship.
NBA Draft Lottery simplified for Utah: If Jazz aren't announced at No. 14, they've won one of the top three spots. #captainobvious
I liked the lottery better when David Stern reached into a jar and pulled out the altered envelope.
In case you wondered what Jazz writers @Jim Burton @Bill Oram and I look like now. (From back cover of Jazz draft guide.) http://t.co/Hv6tfGf6bP
For a team with a 98.2 percent chance of picking 14th, the lottery is a non-event. Now, imagine if the Jazz had sent Enes Kanter.
Michael Jordan announces Bobcats are now the Hornets. In a related development, Jordan announces Kemba Walker is now Isiah Thomas.
Since 1986, the Jazz have picked better than 14th in the draft only four times (D-Will, Hayward, Kanter, Burks).
Jazz have had 18 draft picks since 2005. At the end of last season, 11 were playing in the NBA.
