Here is my starting lineup for next season: PG: Devin Harris/#1 overall pick (Kyrie Irving) SG: Gordon Hayward (duh) SF: Paul Millsap PF: Derrick Favors C: Al Jefferson I simply don't know how we could draft a big right now. In my opinion, drafting another big player is a huge mistake...

to finish with a 40-42 record, which is one game better than the Jazz. This means that our second lottery pick will probably be #12 overall. Depending if the Kings can beat the Lakers, the New Jersey pick will either have the 6th or 5th best chance at winning the lottery.

We need to draft a top-flight Point Guard with our New Jersey pick. In my opinion, we have found four out of our five starters (SG: Hayward; SF: Millsap, PF: Favors; C: Jefferson). We just need to find our starting point guard and we are golden. We now have the type of team that can compete with...

You guys are funny.

I actually would be fine if the Jazz took Jimmer with their 2nd lottery pick if they get a player like Derrick Williams with the NJ pick. He would be Raja Bell's replacement off the bench.

Sorry. I messed up. Fixed now.

I would be just fine with this draft. #2: Derrick Williams #12: Jimmer Fredette

You don't know that. He has never been given the opportunity. It's not like he wouldn't have defense behind him or anything (Jefferson and Favors).

I've been saying that for a while now. I want this depth chart: PG: Devin Harris, Earl Watson, Ronnie Price SG: C.J. Miles, Lottery Pick (sorry Raja, you're gone after this season), Ronnie Price SF: Paul Millsap, Gordon Hayward, Jeremy Evans PF: Derrick Favors, Andrei Kirilenko (re-signed to...

We'll never know until he is given the opportunity to do so full-time. Was Matt "Fry Sauce" Harpring quick enough to guard Small Forwards? It couldn't be much worse than Paul getting eaten alive inside time and time again by PF's like Dirk Nowitzki, Pau Gasol, Kevin Garnett, LaMarcus Aldridge...

IMO, we should start Millsap (at SF) and Favors (at PF). I would also move Andrei to the bench as the back up PF. Going by that logic I would go with this depth chart: PG: Devin Harris, Earl Watson, Ronnie Price SG: C.J. Miles, Raja Bell, Ronnie Price SF: Paul Millsap, Gordon Hayward, Jeremy...

Yep, he's right. Also of note, most of the top picks in the draft lately have been made by teams that did NOT finish with the worst record in the league. Remember, just because the team that finishes with the worst record in the league mathematically has the best chance of winning the lottery...

We just traded our franchise point guard for a quality starting point guard and a future superstar PF PLUS 2 lottery picks and 3 million dollars in cash. This trade might be the one that finally puts us over the top as an NBA Championship contender. Also, our summer league team this year is...

The great thing is that we now have two Power Forwards that can also play Center. This is how we will eventually beat the Lakers in the playoffs. Jefferson matches up well against Gasol and Favors matches up well against Bynum. We no longer are at a size and length disadvantage. Personally, I...

I agree. Bell is completely worthless at this point. Stick his butt at the end of the bench. I would start Hayward. It should help his development. Gordon actually does have a pretty good outside shot and he plays decent defense. Give all of Bell's minutes to Jeremy Evans (who didn't play...

I feel that this deficiency will be fixed through the draft. The Jazz's only real position of need now is at shooting guard. With the Nets' pick (likely top 5 or so) and next year's lottery pick, we are likely to acquire said high-scoring wing through the draft. We are set. GO JAZZ!!!

The same thing can be said about Pau Gasol, Amare Stoudamire, Kevin Garnett, and others. I really think that if Millsap's future is with the Jazz, he will become our starting Small Forward with Favors and Jefferson at the PF/C positions. Especially if we resign AK. I would expect for Andrei to...

If Paul were moved to SF full time, I think that eventually he would stop getting burned by the type of wing players you just mentioned. Also, with Favors having unbelievable defensive potential, one would think that Millsap would have help behind him if he were to get burned.

I know that some of you will balk at this, but I think that it is. Some have said that he is not quick enough to play at the 3. I personally think that he is. He has also developed an above average outside shooting ability that could become his calling card with time. With Paul only being 6'8"...

If this is true, I am one happy camper right now. If we get Miller (former Runnin' Utes star/NBA veteran) plus Wesley Matthews back, I really couldn't ask for much more.
