If the Jazz select Brandon Knight........

[MDAV28]

Ummmm...

17 points, 42 % shooting, 4 assists and 3 turnovers.

those were his college stats. That doesn't exactly scream #3 pick and future PG of the Utah Jazz to me.

But whatever, I'm just talking out of my ***.

16.6 points, 46.1%, 6.5 assists, 4.0 turnovers. Name that player? I'll give you a hint, B Knight replaced him this year.

Or try this one. 14.9 points, 47.7%, 4.7 assists, 2.7 turnovers. Hint: MVP.

So in other words, B Knight isn't nearly as good as John Wall (next Gilbert Arenas)?

Thanks for making my argument against the drafting Knight for me!

 

[MDAV28]

In no way am I saying he is as good a prospect as Wall but you really think those numbers are that far off? I was mislead to think that your argument was based on the number of turnovers, cause the other numbers don't seem all that bad to me. You could argue that Wall has better players to dump it off to as well but idc about that.

Look, I admit I am 4th generation UK fan and a convert to Jazz after living here the past 6 years ... but I feel I can be honest in my assessment.
UK has won more NCAA games than any team in cbb, yet Knight (among all feshman, all-time) amassed the following season accolades;
Points - #1
3pt attempts - #1
3pt made - #1
Assists - #2 (to Wall)
Rebounds - #12

Pretty impressive, imo. Great kid. Smart kid. Winner.

Knight might be a good NBA player... Someday..

I like him at 12... NOT at 3.

Lets stay BIG at 3. Biyombo or Kanter. This is backed up also by the dominance that bigs have had in this year's playoffs (along with all the others). Biyombo could be the Tyson Chandler, Ibaka, Noah, etc that we need. Kanter might be the best player in this year's draft.

This confirms it for me. Knight is the guy.

Now there are some legit stats. Knight is the deal i watched at least 10 uk games and his progression from start to end was amazing. His final stats dont begin to tell the story.

That is why we shouldn't draft Knight. It is a joke. Everyone wants him because of the recent Rose hype. Same coach.
When Knight isn't half the athlete Rose is. He is a horrible passer he has horrible shot selection. And we want take a chance on him why!?

What Rose hype? Knight isn't similar to Rose! Who has compared the two?

 

[Harambe]

Then what in the hell do we do with Harris? How easy would it be to move him? What type of player could we get back?

In my opinion... move him to SG. He played combo when he was in Dallas, so it wouldn't be all that big of a stretch, and with the historic love of playing two PG's, this works out perfectly. Then we can move Hayward to the 3, and any combination of healthy memo, sap, favors, jefferson, high draft pick to play 4/5.

I'm excited this season because Corbin seems to stick with the young talent when they're struggling, instead of sticking with the vets.

Ever dated a girl for years and then you break up with her and you feel kinda weird being alone again? So you start noticing other girls but none of them measure up to your old girlfriend. But you continue to hate being alone so eventually you stop being so picky and you see a girl and she's ok. She does some things that convince you to think "hey, she's not so bad. She's got potential." But you know she isn't right for you. And if you waste time kidding yourself about her, you won't be available when Ms. Right comes along.

Her name is Brandon Knight. I'm saving myself for someone better.

DO NOT want to give up next years pick unless we get to #1 ... which isn't happening. Next years class is L-O-A-D-E-D, loaded.

Oof.

This is the most asinine thing i have ever read. Knight is a stud. I am sure you have not seen any games other than the tourney

Didn't you just accuse KKK of the same? The more things change...
