Playoff Contender?

I am still of the opinion that the Jazz could have had a chance at the playoffs last year if they could have been at least somewhat healthy. Look at all the games missed and different starting lineups due to injuries last year. I don't think Ty had one game as a head coach were he had his whole roster. So adding a couple of good pieces IMO makes us a playoff contender for sure.

When we were projected to draft Kanter/Knight I believed we where a fringe playoff team, someone competing for a distant shot at a 7-8 seed. Now that we are in position to draft Williams does that potentially make us a legitimate playoff contender fighting for a 4-8 seed? Talks have also been Kemba Walker might possibly fall to 12, which would give us a ridiculously strong (on paper) bench.

Harris- Walker(or Jimmer)
Hayward - Miles
Williams - Millsap - Evans
Millsap - Favors - Evans
Jefferson - Okur - Fess

Even though this would be a relatively inexperienced bunch, players like Walker and Williams give us mentally strong leaders who I think will both be ROY candidates. Our defense would most likely be a weakness, but our offense would be very potent.

williams will no way make us a playoff contender. He doesnt have that much potential. He is at best a good complementary piece

Disagree, him and Kemba are the most NBA ready players and would easily give the most impact to an NBA team right away. If you add them together, we could easily be a playoff team. Let's not forget Jefferson and Millsap are solid, Miles can provide anywhere from 5-40 off the bench, and Harris was a former all-star.
 
I woul be happier with Kemba at 12 than I would be with Williams at 3, and I'd be pants on the ground ecstatic with Williams at 3. Can you imagine the motivation dropping to 12 would give Kemba. He would come into the NBA with the biggest chip on his shoulder.

Didnt think of that but I think it is true.

And Hayward can rain 3's
 
Try as I might, I just can't see Walker falling to #12. But if the Jazz somehow come out of this draft with Williams and Walker we would be an instant playoff team in my opinion. And I would treat myself to a steak dinner tomorrow night.

Jimmer and Walker are both available at 12. Who do you pick?
