2011 draft.....

[Zerol]

Biyombo might turn out to be a player, as might Jonas, Enes, and Donutholeus, but drafting any of them with the New Jersey pick would be one of the worst PR moves they could possibly make. A foreign player and Jimmer as the two lottery picks would possibly make me ask for a refund on my tickets.

Agree - the Jazz needs to go for more of a sure thing with the 5th or 6th pick. I say Knight if no Barnes.

Why do people like Knight over Walker?

Size is the main reason... potential too since Knight is a couple of years younger. Personally I think Knight's upside is Westbrook and Walker's is Jameer Nelson. I can be dead wrong though.

I think some of us are worried he will be Aaron Brooks pt. II.

So you hate foreigners and mormons?

Are we so sure that Knight is a sure thing? Dont get me wrong I think he will be a solid player, but pretty much anyone will be a little bit of a gamble at this point. As we know there have been #1 picks who have not panned out.

Absolutely.

No point guards with the first lottery pick, unless it's Irving - and even then I'm not sure about it.

Knight is not a home run at a position you don't need a home run. So why waste such a high pick on him?

I'd sooner take one of the Euros.

I think Knight is more of a sure thing than Biyombo at this point. He did well throughout the season and was clutch for Kentucky in the tournament. He can do what Hornacek did for us - starting at the 2 guard position and back up PG when Harris is out.

 

[Sneakers]

Kemba vs Knight... The new Paul vs Williams??

 

[NCJazz]

Absolutely.

Makes sense. Foreigners have funny names and Mormon cant shoot the J.
