What's new

2011 draft.....

Why exactly would we take Derrick Williams? Do we really need another undersized PF? We're already phasing out Millsap. Favors and Jefferson are the future. Why waste a pick on another Millsap?

I think Irving is going to be a player.

If he falls to 6 though would be the BPA, and other teams that covet him may offer you their lower pick + a good player in return. Denver for instance needs a PF to replace Martin, do they offer Affalo in a s&t + their pick for Williams? (I probably wouldn't do that trade just using as a quick example)
 
Williams for the umpteenth time will not play power forward in the NBA. Jesus. He's a small forward.

It's hard to say that a guy that really never has played as a SF will now become one. However, saying he's Paul Millsap just because he's probably undersized for a 4 is ****ing rich.
 
We should draft BPA with the Nets pick.

With the other pick we should go old school and target the absolute best Under 20 prospect in Europe. Draft and Stash. No idea who that is, but I'll deliriously ecstatic on draft day when Jay Bilas says, "Wow, the Jazz could have had Kemba Walker! Don't even know who this kid they took is but we're hearing they have no phones in the country where he lives so we won't even be able to hear from him."
 
I dont know if it's just me, but from what I've seen Derrick Williams at best case is a smaller Lamar Odom, and he also reminds me a bit of Boris Diaw. I'm not all that impressed. Maybe my opinion will change the more I see him. I'll admit I haven't seen enough to have an educated opinion..
 
The problem with Terrence Jones is he has poor shooting mechanics. He is a tough guy and a very good slasher and defender but his outside shooting and FT shooting are not good. He would have to completely revamp his shooting stroke if he wants to become a good outside shooter.

On the other hand, if T. Jones could shoot like Derrick Williams he would be hands down the number one pick.
