Wish his assist # was better. I really like him, he's very efficient and having played the offense is a nice bonus.
 
From what I've been told, Jackson crumbled against good competition and Knight led his team to a Final Four as a freshman. Jackson also has no left hand to speak of.

But yeah, I don't know. Jackson on paper looks to have juggernaut potential. I started a thread a while ago that was basically all conjecture, but the base point was that three PGs projected late in the 1st/early in the 2nd (Charles Jenkins, Reggie Jackson, and Darius Morris) look about as good to me as any of Knight/Walker/Jimmer (but not Irving), and that the Jazz should try to get a late pick and start trying to find their PG of the future (since Harris is 28 and some other things). Low risk and potentially high reward.

So you want Kanter and Jackson?

Derrick Williams or Kanter and Jackson

Dream would be to trade Millsap for a pick to get Biyombo and also trade up to get Williams and also draft Reggie Jackson.

That is a pipe dream for all that to happen. But Reggie Jackson is who I want at PG for us. at the 12th pick or trading down to get him.

Ya that is my whole point. I am more passionate about NOT drafting a PG with the 3rd pick than I am about drafting Reggie Jackson in general. I just think the PG's are so overrated in this league and in this draft. Even Irving hasn't played enough in my opinion. I think he is the best for sure just a lot of question marks for a player in the top 3.
 
Reggie Jackson is one of my sleepers in this draft. He is good value were he is being projected. I think there are a few guys in the 20s that can turn out to be good players. Jenkins (20-40s) and Malcom Lee (25-35) are two sleepers.

I think the Jazz need to go big at #3. I am not that big of a fan taking Knight at 3.

trade a proven 17 and 9 guy for an undersized Biyombo who could be 26, has no offensive game and has the highest bust potential out of anyone in the draft. You would make a great GM
 
I don't know that PGs in general are overrated but we know that a ball dominating scorer did not fit in the flex.

If Corbin is going to run the flex a lot I would rather go in a different direction.

Biyombo is not 26. At the oldest he may be 21-22. Supposedly some doctor did a test on his wrist that suggest he is actually 18.

Agree with this. Love the Sap, but he doesn't quite fit our needs as a big man to start for us.
We need more defense, and rebounding. That is exactly what Bismack will bring to the table.

Big Al and Bismack together? I think it works. It's a little undersized, but they complement each other better on paper than Sap with Al.

Don't know much about Reggie, but you are making me interested in finding out more. He's got a few other fans here too.

Nonetheless, it makes zero sense to trade Millsap for an unproven Biyombo. We would be playing 4 vs 5 on offensive. He is only 6 9 which would be extremely undersized to play the 5

Do more research. Biyombo has doctors proving he is under the age of 19. The bones in his wrists have not even connected yet. They have doctors proving it. And teams are not even worried about that anymore.
Actually there is way more risk with other players in this draft than Biyombo. People like to label him high risk because he is from africa and the history of those players. Rather than actually studying the player himself. Every team knows he will be a defensive force. That is the only reason why teams are going to draft him. They are not worried about his offensive game. Ben Wallace had no offensive game at all. So your logic makes no sense. Teams are just wondering how high of a draft pick is he worth for only providing defense.

Also 6'8 PF's are easy to come by. You act like Millsap is some rare player that its hard to find players who can average 17 and 9 when given the minutes
If Brandon Bass was on the Jazz he would average the same amount of points and rebounds. Its not hard to score in the Jazz offense when your the PF. Everything revolves around them scoring. You put Millsap on any other team where we wouldn't be setting him up he wouldn't even average 15 points. He would be a Udonis Haslem(prime) type player.
I can name like 10 undersized PF's who can easily provide that.

Size matters in this league. Get rid of the midgets. I was a homer of Millsap for years. But every contending team has legit size at the 4 and 5.

He has a 7'7 wing span. You don't catch with your head or block with your head or rebound. He is strong. Ben Wallace embarrassed Shaq for years during his Laker time. I am not worried about his height when he is aggressive and long and strong. undersized scoring PF's are in every single draft every year. You can always get someone like Millsap. You can't get someone with Biyombo's length, strength and athleticism and defensive force very often. Its the rare things that win championships not holding on to just talent in general. People need roles on a team. Not just talent and stats.
 
Saying that you can get a player like Sap every draft is an insult to Millsap. He is a special player who has proven he can score and rebound. He is like Jason Terry or Ginobili, only at the PF spot. He would be best with 25-30 mpg where he can go all out and beast. There aren't many players who can do what Sap does. He has soft touch, good hands, rebounds well, and can shoot well.

Less than informed. Bismack's standing reach is = Dwight Howard. Jazz need a defensive force at the C.

I know its an insult but if you gave,
Brandon Bass
Carl Landry (Already proven)
David Lee
Tyler Hansbrough
Jason Maxiell
Ed Davis

Playing 34 minutes a night in the Jazz offense. They all would average 15-18 points per game and 7 rebounds like Millsap did. He is a hard worker and I like Millsap but he is not going to win us a championship. Most offenses in the league never run it through the big guys. They don't normally set them up to score so often. That is why Boozer scored more here in Utah than he did with Cleveland and the Bulls. The Jazz offense makes average PF's look better than they would be on a different team.

I don't know why you threw David Lee in there. Doesn't he have a max contract? But yeah, Millsap is better than all of those guys, maybe better than Lee.
