Cavs get Porter or Len. Or move Waiters and get Mclemore. Waiters another Syracuse disappointment.

Hahaha.. sounds like the Cavs want Porter and not Noel. I guess it makes sense as they've already got Varejao there...

if noel drops, the jazz should trade up to 3... maybe not for noel but, if Porter and McLemore are off the board 1-2, im verrrrry happy with the depth in the top 15, 3-15

It's a pity he can't shoot...

But Archie is not very smart... he could have easily played himself into the Westbrook/Bledsoe type role with UK last year. Calipari wanted him to do it. The PG spot was wide open with that Harlow dude ...

I guess the guy really had to "want it"... he just didn't.

Some stuff from Chad Ford:
Really think the Jazz will pass on a point guard at 14?
Don't think the Jazz are convinced there's a starting PG there for them at 14. If there isn't, they take the best available player. Remember, the Jazz like PGs that can shoot the ball -- Michael Carter-Williams, Dennis Schroeder don't really qualify. Shane Larkin might be the best fit if they really want a PG, but 14 might be a little high.

Wish the Jazz would start liking PGs who could run a pick and roll, pass the ball effectively, and show average dribbling skills.

I can't even begin to tell you how bad of a take that is.. really bad. Not your fault, it's just not at all what happened and doesn't properly describe Archie.
UK fans wanted him gone for making too many dumb plays.. but they LOVED his work ethic, his motor, that he never took a play off, that he was pushing himself to be the best he could be.. it just wasn't translating to the court.

No disputing what you've said. All I meant was, if you're not a good shooter - then transform yourself into a slasher type PG. You can hide your deficiency that way. I don't remember Westbrook being able to shoot neither coming out of College.

He did. He was UK's leading scorer and it was from slashing to the basket.

Funny, at the beginning of the season last year I was like HOLY ****! The dude was unstoppable and hit everything.. seriously. It's like he couldn't miss the toughest shots.. but that all changed when the shots stopped falling. Defenders started backing way off, etc.

i think hes a great fit here in utah. tell him to forget how to shoot and work with hornacek, Burks is clearly better and has a few years under his belt to show him the ropes too.

BUT can u please riddle me this PKM, this recent drop down from the teens all the way to 30 by DX, its about him measurinng 6'3"?
i read these #'s and believe them, i dont have much time to double check players heights so i always presumed archie was 6'5" since he plays big. that caught me off guard then i see he dropped again, or am i jumping to conclusions?

It's not the measurements at all. Just his shot and shot mechanics.
