And Klay Thompson plays 35.3 mpg, Harrison Barnes 25.6, while Burks is buried on the bench and Favors with just 24.3.

Good point. Thompson and Barnes should be on the bench, this just shows how we're growing the 'right way.'

Yes.

I'm pretty sure it's only top 6 protected from here on out. I could be wrong, but am too lazy to check because it really doesn't matter.

After this year, it's 6..

[UGLI baby]

Y'all sure? I think I'm with Spazz on this one.

I just threw up, and went number 1 and 2 in my pants. Agreeing with Spazz? Eww.

We don't need that pick, and the draftees don't need us to pick them neither. If I am to be selected in the lottery Jazz would be the last team I want to go. I wouldn't like to be on the bench at least for 3 years with just 20 minutes max playing time.

I'll do it.

I think you're wrong as well. I think it is top 6 protected now and turns to second round picks next season.

[PKM]

I usually think I'm wrong when majority says so .. but I am pretty convinced it's top 7 protected in '13, top 6 in '14 ..

According to that article you are right PKM. Top 7 again this year, top 6 next year and if not received in 2014 it becomes a 2nd rounder in 2014 and 2016.

Last time I checked various media outlets, even they couldn't agree:

2013 – top 7 protected (per Draft Express, ESPN.com) or top 6 protected (per RealGM, Sheridan Hoops)

I'm sure it'll be cleared up later in the season.

I'm pretty frustrated with the jazz so I say who cares. Even if the jazz get the 12 and 18 picks in this draft I'm sure they can blow it by
1-drafting a player that duplicates another player on the roster,
2-rating character much higher than basketball skill,
3- letting whoever they draft sit on the bench.

Go Jazz.
