Following potential 2013 draftees

[A-Train (old)]

With the scoring drought that the young guys seem to have night after night I have to wonder if the Jazz will draft a score first PG type.

If the Jazz want a pass-first point guard the answer is MCW and if the Jazz want a scoring point guard the answer is Burke.

I know Penny Hardaway, and Alec Burks, sir, is no Penny Hardaway.

I'm going to make a bold prediction here. If the Jazz have the choice between picking Trey Burke and CJ McCollum, I predict they would choose McCollum. The reasoning is that McCollum is bigger, finishes better around the rim, has enough size and feel to play PG at the next level (like DWill did at Illinois), and also because McCollum is older and more developed (a senior). McCollum is older than Burks, Favors and Kanter, and there should be less of a learning/development curve. He should be able to fit right in. Plus he's a really good shooter all over the floor.

The score-first PG could also be McCollum.

I don't think poorly of Trey Burke but I'm extremely high on CJ McCollum. I'd much prefer him to Burke at PG for our team, primarily for the reasons you outlined above. I think he can really play, really score and really shoot.

Kemba Walker/Ty Lawson.

Trey Burke is a Huge steal outside of the top 10,if this is the case. i dont see this though, honestly.

4 year outlook. i like to be positive with multi year predictions, and im a critical grader on what i see now, and 1 year outlook. thats where im at.

The score-first PG could also be McCollum.

I agree.

I will also make a bold prediction, Otto Porter will be the #1 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I still think Marcus Smart is the best PG for the Jazz in this draft, but I'm putting McCollum ahead of Burke. Offensively, McCollum was already playing at an NBA level. I also think he'd be in the Top 10 if he didn't get injured. I think that makes his stock a 'buy' at the end of the lottery.

while were into making bold predictions, i think the jazz go against the grain and trade their 2014 pick into this years draft, to pick MCW, Isaiah Austin or Poythress, and package up again to score another. ideally Poy and Austin.

under this scenario id fully endorse unleashing Kanter and Favors full force, it also allows us to try and grab Millsap instead of Al, either way we dont need either and can S+T them both, under this scenario.. while were speaking in fantasy lets say we signed Chris Paul.

CP3- Burks - Hayward - Favors - Kanter

Burks - Foye - Poythress - Austin/Austin

Tinsley - Murphy - DMC - Marvin - FA 4/5

we can play a small lineup with either Austin Kanter or Favors at 5 and poythress(marvin, DMC) at 4.

Yes, that was bold. I don't think that happens.
