3 Hamilton
4 the Jimmer

Sullinger: Good prospect but another undersized PF would be horrible for the Jazz, we already have a peaked version of him called Paul Millsap.

Is there a team that needs a PF like this?

Valanciunas: Suffers from "euroitis", which afflicts most 7 footers over there and despite his length and talent, will not be ready for several years due to his light weight.

Draft Express lists him going 2nd on their mock - they're quite high on him. But yeah, I think he's gonna fall. Hopefully he stays in the top 5.

Perry Jones: A true physical specimen but very raw, risky pick.

This is the kind of player that usually gets picked pretty early. Probably by the kings.

Despite playing in a "Jazz offense" I'm not really interested in Hamilton.

I think Hamilton is staying at Texas

I want Smith or knight with the second pick, although I'm still hoping we make the post season

Knight might be gone if he keeps playing the way he did against WV. Granted if he plays the way he did against Princeton might still be there.

This draft seems to be heavy with tweeners. 6-7 to 6-8 guys who aren't NBA pf but aren't NBA sf either. Although Patterson sure showed the Jazz how an undersized pf can play ball.

I wonder where Favours and Hayward would be projected in this draft had they stayed in school one more year? Would Favours be projected ahead of Singler as the #1? Would Hayward still be a top 10? Would he be a top 6?

I am assuming you meant Irving or the world has collapsed. Yeah, i think Favors would be 1 or 2. Hayward would depend on how much he improved from his Sophomore year, but if there was a big jump I think he would be in top 7 as well.

Just to clarify - do you think Knight might be gone before the number 6 pick or the 12th pick?

Evil British twin?

Well played.

I know Barnes is mainly a 3, but I wonder if he could develop into a big 2. His outside shot has really improved lately. He is a playmaker and has a decent touch. I just don't know if he could effectively guard a 2.
