What's new

Following potential 2012 draftees

It was on the old board, but I came here to let you guys know that the Jazz were making serious inquiries into Cousins and seemed to be looking to try to make a deal to nab him. Truth.

May be when his contract's up you can persuade him to come sign with us as a free agent?

Cousins & Favors front court would be unlike any pairing we've ever seen in the NBA since God-knows-when!!!!!!

Demarcus is a good friend of mine and he's a really cool dude. He was my favorite player on the team his freshman year at UK. Would love to have him on the Jazz. Incidentally, most everyone around him loves the guy .. he really does get an unfair rap as a person. On the court, however, he's a whiny bitch that needs to learn to just shut up and ball.

I don't think he likes Harris that much.
 
Not exactly a ringing endorsement. I would love to see a Favors/Cousins line up.

it would be intriguing. However at the moment I don't se him as a guy that plays winning basketball because of immaturity. And wonder how he'd get along with Favors. I didn't see him play a lot just against the jazz, and noticed him getting baited into shooting long jumpers way out of his range. I even recall him shooting a three with plenty of time on the clock.

He is not perfect, but you are not taking into account who he played with.

Evans, Thornton, Thomas even Jimmer are ball hogs/chukers. Cousins wants the ball. He is a scorer. When he finally got the ball he wanted to score. Who can blame him?

He would love Corbin because he would get the ball in the low post and get to go to work. The Jazz would actually run plays for Cousins.
 
And small ball only works if those smalls are athletic up front.

By up front do you mean the frontcourt? Because Jesus, considering Rod Higgins and Chris Mullin athletic is a bit of a joke.


Richmond
Hardaway
Šarūnas Marčiulionis
Mullin
Rod Higgins

Who are the "athletic frontcourt" players?

What Small-ball relies on (and keep in mind that my remark was mostly a joke) is a volume of great three point shooters. Not athletic bigs.
 
Houston just traded Budinger to the wolves for the 18th pick, so now they have the 14th, 16th, and 18th pick. Is this a move toward making a play at D. Howard.
