What's new

Following 2016 potential draftees

The Murray thing could be a smokescreen of sorts. Last year, Perrin said that the most impressive workout was Kelly Oubre. However, the Jazz obviously liked Trey Lyles more. So perhaps need made a difference in the final decision.

I hope that's the case. I just don't like him much. I've tried to buy into the hype but I just can't.

I hope Kork is the pick if they stay at 12.
 
I agree. What's the difference between DMurray and Tony Wroten?
For one thing Wroten shot 16% from 3 and 58% from the FT line. Murray isn't a great shooter, but Wroten was as bad as they come.

Arguments like this aren't useful. I could say "what's the difference between Korkmaz and Caspi?" as easily as "what's the difference between Korkmaz and Klay?"

Comparisons like this are just oversimplification.

One thing regarding Dejounte that hasn't been brought up is that his measurements aren't even up to date. He was measured at 6'5 with a 6'10 wingspan in 2014; I'd say it's more than likely that he's grown since then.

Got it. You have a great hypothesis and I can even see why you got to that point but it is still speculation.

Thanks for sharing. I value the input.

Not sure why you don't like Murray. You didn't like Burke because he was small and unathletic. That is something you can't teach, so made sense. Murray has elite length and good athleticism at PG, and the the things he struggles with can be taught through repetition. So yeah, he has bust potential if he can't shoot, but according to Perrin he is farther along in that department than we think.

All fair points. If the Jazz draft him then I hope I'm wrong.

I just don't seem to like him at all.
