Biyombo = biggest bust potential of the draft. Having said that, if he falls to us at #12 and KOC pulls the trigger, I think it would be a big mistake not to bring in Kevin Bacon as his personal trainer.
 
hmmmmmmmm offensive fire power or Defensive shot blocker. Jimmer is more polished and you pretty much know what you are going to get with him. Smack you have no Idea other than he is going to go all out to be in a guys face. At this point in the draft (depending on the first pick) I go for a home run and take Smack and hope he develops
 
This is like having the championship game take place in the second round. To me if we're just going on potential to be an NBA impact player the choice is clearly Bismak, but I get that the BYU fans will support Jimmer in force. If we draft Kanter, though, Bismak is still BPA and we should take him. Obviously a trade would need to happen at that point. I'm not saying we should trade the guy we draft 12th, but just to simplify the equation, if you think we would get as much value trading Jimmer as Boyombo you're crazy.
 
The present vote with Jimmer in the lead makes me very happy that KOC makes these decisions rather than the fans. That said, I believe the Jazz will end up drafting Jimmer because he'll be close enough in value to the others that are available at that point. Under those circumstances, marketing considerations, the likelihood that he would be happy to spend his career in Salt Lake and his ability to fill an obvious need will seal the deal.
 
? It's hard to pass on Bismack but I want more info on him before having to decide. I'm smitten with him but I'm also liking Fredette an awful lot. If Jazz can get Kanter @ 3.... I still want Bismack. AND I want Jimmer.
