Following potential 2012 draftees

I would think Miller is the target if it's a SF in that range as well. Only guy left at that point with elite upside, IMO.

White has pretty major upside, too, IMO.

I am not trying to get into this anymore since the Tankers pick may not land with us. If justice is served and Utah gets the pick then I will be in here looking thru posts and asking questions of people like PKM, Spycam1, Weezur and Catchall.

Do not want to get mad at what the Jazz are missing out on.

Ugh. What I'm hearing is that he is what the Jazz are peddling and there are no takers.

Really? An expiring 20/10 PF who helped a rebuilding team make the playoffs with his clutch scoring has no takers?

Edit: I think Al had a better year overall than Pau Gasol, and he's several years younger.

So does Terrence Jones. There's also that French guy Fournier who looks like the SF equivalent of Rudy Fernandez, and there's Moe Harkless.

Don't really know anything about Fournier.

I'm hoping for either Miller or White. I also think there's a good chance one of them is our target, so hopefully this actually works out.

Terrence Jones at SF has crazy upside. He might even have a standing reach around the 9 ft. range.

Just what I was told. I'm not making the decisions, fortunately.. though that would be a blast for a while. I do, at least, know how to say, 'sit your *** on the bench until you're ready to play D!!!'

I'm heading out to dinner and drinks in a few. Hoping for some info .. good news, preferrably. One of the guys that will be there is a Nike exec and he usually has some good stuff.

Thanks for posting, it's fun to get some info to speculate on.

A pick #14 – 16 could also be used as part of another trade. Especially if we were to purchase it for cash considerations.
#15 plus one of our expiring contracts, one of our bigs, Burks…how high do you think that could get us? Anyone think we’re targeting someone in the 6-8 range?

Buy a pick from Memphis. They are notoriously cheap.

I'll post quick stuff here and there. I'll goback and read/answer later. This is something that was just said. For now, I've heard we've talked to HOU, Cavs, Grizz, and one other that we haven't heard the name yet. Also was told we're asking about Jones, Jeff Taylor, and DMiller was brought up again.

Apparently HOU is still looking like the most likely option. This guy said the Cavs approached the Jazz with their lottery pick and one of their 2nd's for Favors and other consideration. Said Jazz said hell no.
