Jazz actively trying to move down from #3

I am pretty sure that no one outside the Jazz organization knows what KOC is going to do unless KOC wants them to know. I highly doubt this rumor is true. I would seriously have to consider the Curry rumor but I would want a little more than Curry if we are giving up the third pick.

I agree with the first part of this statement. Nobody (outside the Jazz front office) knows what KOC's plan is. Is he probably listening to deals that would have the Jazz trading down in the draft? Yes. He'd be an idiot not to listen to what people are willing to offer, but does that mean he's actively trying to trade out of #3? Who knows? I think it's funny that people even try to speculate as to what KOC is going to do. It's just like when the trade deadline was approaching and every "expert", beat writer, heck even other GMs all had their ears to the ground trying to see who was going to do what, and even then KOC still silently pulled off a franchise, (heck league) altering trade right under everyone's noses.
 
My thoughts

-Jazz are having a big meeting after the guys get back from Europe. Greg Miller said it (see ABC4 interview) will be him, Randy Rigby, Bob Hyde, Mother, KOC. He didn't say Coach Corbin so I wonder if he will be involved. Greg said that KOC will present options and group will decide. The assistant trainer that Feldman talks to won't be at the meeting.

-Mark Jackson, new GS coach, may want to keep Curry and ship out Ellis. I wouldn't touch Ellis. Espn suggested Ellis for Iggy.

-Trading down is a risky propostion. You have to guess at what other teams after your #3 pick will do. It works if you don't care who you end up with. I like the possibility of drafting Knater #3 for Washignton and getting #6, 18, 34. Shelvin Mack is the PG the jazz will draft.

I'd love to get Curry but I just don't see it happening. Sounds like Ellis is going to be traded for AI. So I don't really see them giving up Curry for Knight or Kanter, When they can take Jimmer at 11 and replace some of the scoring void left from Ellis.

I like the idea of that. But I keep thinking about Utah trading the 6th pick for the 3rd plus 2 other picks to Portland and how well it turned out for Utah in drafting Dwill and How bad it turned out for Portland.

Who would Utah draft at Number 6? Could they still get Knight? Just depends on Toronto, would they take Walker over Knight? But it would be awesome to see the Jazz end up with Knight at 6, Burk or Thompson at 12, and Singleton at 17.
 
And everyone gets mad at me for bashing this moron. He is a complete waste of space. In a draft that has three top players he is going to move the third pick for some other teams garbage and then draft Knight. It is funny that in a weak draft we potentially trying to get a ton of players. This coming draft is going to show you why KOC is a horrible GM. Sorry, I'm not drinking the gotta have Knight KoolAid.
 
stephen curry? hell no , i would rather knight
it would be the stupidest idea to trade our pick down. There isnt any legitimate player under first 3 anyway. If we are gonna make a trade, we better use harris or jefferson to move our 12th pick up and get a better second player
