I agree. Kirilenko needs to be gone. We probably won't be able to afford him (depending upon the new cba, whenever it happens) and we have young players (like Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors) that should get increased playing time in his stead. I, personally, believe that this will be our...

Let's see, of those four teams, which won the championship: DALLAS. They have a pretty good front line (Nowitzki: 9th overall pick; Tyson Chandler: 2nd overall pick; Brendan Haywood: 20th overall pick). Anybody could win if they had two superstars (LeBron James and Dwayne Wade) and an all-star...

Um, let me think. NO to trading Jefferson when we have an aging Mehmet Okur on the roster who has a large, expiring contract. Okur is the one who will be traded at the deadline, NOT Jefferson. Kanter basically will replace Okur's production. Memo looks like the eventual "odd man out". Also, if...

That team would run away with the championship. It would not even be close.

two players that both potentially could have been the #1 picks in Kanter and Favors? I say yes. Had Kanter been eligible to play this season, I really think that he would have been the #1 pick in this year's draft. Also, had Favors stayed one more season at Georgia Tech, he would have been the...

we would have a dynamite team this year: Guards: Alec Burks and Gordon Hayward Forwards: Jeremy Evans and Derrick Favors Centers: Enes Kanter

Dwayne Wade isn't the best three point shooter, either. Neither was Michael Jordan. Just because you are a shooting guard doesn't mean you have to be a great outside shooter. And what are we all really complaining about? WE ALREADY HAVE GORDON HAYWARD! HE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE AN UNBELIEVABLE...

I would think that they took Alec Burks instead of Leonard or Singleton because the Jazz think that Millsap is their future at the SF spot. IMO, this draft solidifies Millsap as the starter at SF this upcoming season. If he doesn't work out, they can always try to trade him. Here is my depth...

Wow. A Gay joke. That's hilarious. I know I'm rolling on the ground right now. I personally know several homosexual men and I think that they are upstanding citizens and people. But sure, keep making fun of them.

Except Kanter isn't slow. He is actually pretty quick and athletic. And what does skin color have to do with anything? Didn't Dallas just win the NBA Championship with a tall, athletic, white foreigner as their best player or am I on drugs?

I would do that trade in a heartbeat. Paul Millsap and the #12 for Linas Kleiza and the #5 pick seems like a pretty even trade to me. The Jazz would then draft whomever is left between Williams and Kanter (hopefully Williams) @ #3 and Brandon Knight @ #5. We then go with this depth chart: PG...

Let's say that the Cavs do take Irving @ #1. Minnesota, who really is in dire need of a center to place next to Kevin Love, decides to draft Kanter @ #2. This would leave the Jazz with a choice between Williams and Knight. I would guess that we take Williams @ #3. Now, here comes the twist: If...

I would not trade Paul Millsap unless we get the #1 pick back (#3 pick and Paul Millsap for the #1 pick). However, I would be interested in trading Devin Harris and the #12 pick if it meant that we could draft Jimmer before Sacramento.

The more I think about it, the more I think that Jimmer could be the pick at #3. He will probably be of the board by time the Jazz draft at #12. I also don't think that Derrick Williams or Kyrie Irving are going to drop.Fredette would be nearly the ideal player to place next to Gordon Hayward in...

I, for once, am actually going to agree with this poster. This is one of the perceived weakest drafts in a while. The perceived #1 pick (Kyrie Irving) only played 17 games in college and Duke was better when he was not in the game. Derrick Williams will probably be off the board @ #3. Compare...

And another thought from me: if Jimmer was African-American, would he be considered among the best players available in this draft? Are white guys discriminated against by NBA scouts? I mean, it seems to me that most Caucasian players are consistently undervalued by NBA scouts, whether from the...

Here's a question: what happens if Jimmer dominates against Knight and Walker in the workout? Do you guys think that this would move him up the Jazz's draft board? If they think that Fredette is going to be a better player that both Knight and Walker, would they consider taking him at #3 overall...

That's right. They should trade Beasley, who they just barely traded for last year. Makes a whole lot of sense to me. If they think Kanter is worthy of the #2 pick, they will take him. If not, who knows?

Well, I wouldn't say that. He did draft Gordon Hayward (huge plus). And he basically traded Carlos Boozer for Al Jefferson (fantastic). And he did trade Deron Williams for Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, and two possible lottery (one top 3) draft picks (could be absolutely astounding at the end of...

I agree. That is why I want Derrick Williams so badly in the draft. He is EXACTLY what we need at Small Forward to complement Favors (PF) and Jefferson (C). Read this article: https://aol.sportingnews.com/nba/story/2011-06-01/derrick-williams-insists-i-am-a-small-forward. Williams would almost...
