This. I also don't understand why take Knight when we have Harris whos the same size/position and for all we know same type of player. Does anyone really think Knight is going to be better then Harris? Knight is going to be a above average pg, same as Harris.

It's not about Knight being better then Harris today, It's about Knight being better tomorrow. Knight is 18or19 yrs old and got a ton better by the end of the year and he's just going to continue getting better! Ty and his staff could work wonders with Knight.

And Who wouldn't love to watch Knight, Hayward, Favors for the next 15 years and hope they turn into the next Stockton, Horny, Malone Jazz Team? Also if the 12th pick (Singleton or JV if he falls that far) turns out to be a decent role player Utah could seriously become the Jazz team from 1996-1998 that was always in the mix for the Title!

You guys are more psychic than me. It seems like a lot of the Knight love is based on a future I just can't see.

I should have specified in my opinion Knight will be a above average point guard just like Harris for his ceiling.

Wow...

Now people are comparing Knight to Stockton.

Do the Knight homers have any bounds?

Put down the kool-aid people!

Doesn't matter who we draft. Most fans will have this reaction.

Im just glad Im a fan and don't have to have the weight of this week on my shoulders. Good Luck KOC!!!! And whatever he does I'll always be a Jazzfanz and in all honesty I see the Jazz drafting Kanter just to turn around and trade him.

I could see a few different options
Cavs- Manny Harris/Knight for Okur/Kanter
Toronto-Millsap for Knight, Toronto might bite?
Washington-Kanter/Bell for Blatche/Walker

And Bentley don't you want something to look forward to? My hope that Utah drafts well and this team turns into a yearly contender...I hate watching the Jazz lose!

Thriller- No PG will ever be as good as Stockton...I was stating a line up of Knight, Hayward, Singleton, Favors, Jefferson is going to be one exciting line up in 2 or 3 years!

Thank you for the claification.

I'm really not high on Jefferson. He never boxes out, refuses to pass once he gets the ball, and needs a lot of shots to score. He hasn't proven that he can be a good player and win at the same time.

Knight and Singleton haven't played 1 single NBA game yet.

Both Favors and Hayward need to improve a lot.

I think there's a reason why this team is in the lottery this year. And it isn't because they were good.

If you want to be excited that's great. I'll hold off for a bit. This team has a long way to go and an unproven coach to match

Totally. Aside from the stress of getting it right, he has to deal with many pissed off fans - regardless of his choice. I believe ultimately he knows best.

Yes, of course I want something to look forward to. That's why I also want them to draft well. Unfortunately, the definition of "well" varies greatly from fan to fan.

Go Jazz.

KOC has some pressure to pick Jimmer. I would love to see the Jazz draft room be on camera if Sactown takes JImmer at 7 because KOC might actually exhale so long that he can be heard in Provo. If he is still there at 12 you will be able to feel the tension through the TV screen.

I would think that KOC has earned some credibility points with the most fans with how well Hayward played down the stretch. Will KOC remind the fans about their reaction last year? Will the Jazz fans remember how stupid they looked when they booed Hayward or will the Jimmermania be so great that Jazz fans will raise up their pitch forks and torches and throw stuff at KOC if JImmer is passed over? Thursday certainly will be interesting.

 

[BENTLEY]

I gotta say I don't understand people being so down on Fredette. Is it just too obvious?
"He won't be able to do that in the NBA." Well, at least he won't be required to.

Like Steve Alford and Indiana fans?
