What's new

2011 draft.....

DraftExpress: Utah fans, start learning how to pronounce the name Donatas Motiejunas. Hearing the Jazz really really like him at #6.

If they have #6, the guy is skinny but he's a player.

Uggh, I don't like him at six at all. True, he easily has one of the highest ceiling of any player in the draft, but I think he will probably slide to #12. But I'm not really worried about it. It's just a pre-workout, pre-combine, pre-lottery selection "rumor".
 
I'm guessing KOC is getting a boner watching Dirk in this playoffs (as am I) and drooling over the prospect of getting the next Dirk. As I said though, a very early rumor I dont put much stock in.

Maby in a normal draft, but in a weak draft such as this I doubt he slides very far. I'm not saying we should draft him, but he does fit in well for this team in that he would create space for Al and Favors, being as Memo looks to be on the decline.

I hope not. Dirk is one-of-a-kind for a reason. And while I HATED the Hayward pick, I figured if he could get through the breakers he'd be okay since he's a smart - but almost more importantly - GRITTY player willing to do what it took to win. And he was consistent. Motiejunas is the absolute definition of soft-serve Euro crap. For a team that's been searching for a real interior presence since Malone and has a serious problem rebounding and holding down the interior, this is the stupidest move they could make. Especially since they already have 3 bigs for the rotation. What?
 
I would applaud KOC for the balls. It's a huge risk/reward type pick. If he pans out and becomes an all-star, he would be an awesome fit along side Favors in the long term.

And if he never even comes over or crumbles and never makes a contribution are we supposed to applaud KOC's "balls" for totally wasting a top-10 pick?
