Don't worry, I still would rather have Burke.

PKM, aka Tiny Hands................
That's what I'm really hoping. But the NCAA is abuzz about Burke and it's easy to get hung up on MCW's upside. We'll see, I guess. But hopefully the Jazz clear some wood, win at a slower rate(sucks to say), and put themselves in a position to get a much-needed piece to really move forward with.
Either way, I'm still all-in on Withey with the lesser of the two picks.
Playing well is priority #1 and nothing outside of that is really even close. If you're hoping someone else ****s up, then you don't deserve the break.
Otto Porter would be my choice if we can't get a PG.
Sign Scotty Hopson #powercircle
I like Burke, MCW, and Smart probably in that order but honestly they're all pretty good in some way. Wouldn't mind any of them, if we have a chance.
Take Oladipo in the late teens and its all gravy from there ....
Since the jazz are going to be drafting late (17 & 24 today)
here is an article about drafting players ready to contribute with late 1st round picks. I think that KOL ought to read it. Will one of you guys make sure he gets it?

June 27- NBA Draft; July 7-12 Orlando Summer League; July 11- FA signing period begins; Oct 11- Preseaon game in Boise
MCW had a solid game with 8 assists and 3 steals against Notre Dame. He looks mid-late lottery to me.
Short list at #14: CJ McCollum, Steven Adams, Dennis Schroeder, Giannis Adetokunbo
Short list at #21: Glen Rice Jr., Archie Goodwin, Nate Wolters, Erick Green
2nd round: Tim Hardaway Jr., Adonis Thomas, James Southerland
Ronnie Brewer + Wesley Matthews = a very, very good player.

Oladipo was a player UK wanted. He was seen as a glue guy that would push teammates to be better. Obviously he has transcended from that into a more complete player himself. I REALLY like him, but I would be looking at him around 20 and not much higher.
