Shane Larkin is the next D.J. Augustin, that is the conclusion I have come to.

i really liked Augustin that draft, his athleticism did not translate as i foresaw, in texas he was getting to the rack and finishing doing all sorts of acrobatic layups.

these players are almost exactly the same size, great comparison imo. the 2 biggest differences in their measurements are Augustins arms are considerably longer 5 inches more wingspan and 5inches in standing reach. but larkin has him smoked on explosion, which really is what peaks my interests, 44inch vert is considerably better than Augustins 35"

Larkin had much more of an impact though, do not discount this over #'s

exactly what i said.

i suggusted we trade for Augustin around the deadline, i really think if we did that move, the jazz would have finished closer to 10 games over .500 and made the playoffs

I have to applaud you. You made me like Larkin even less.

Plumlee, please.

I'm not crazy about Mitchell and don't know Lucas from dick.

Lucas is TREMENDOUS, nbadraft.net has him 12th on their big board. he can really run, but might have Ron Artest character concerns, he may have pulled out of the last few drafts to try and shed some of the bad things scouts said about him. (laxidasical, lazy, cocky, young)

Massive wingspan, massive, atleast 7'6 and he can run and jump, and he can jump quick, very able-bodied. id say hes quite the project, but is the type of player you might want to get on a 4 year deal

'BeBe' averaged about 10rebs and 3blocks per 36 last year in 14mpg, also shot 66% FT's and 66%FG's

out of that list of 3, if we are equiping ourselves for next years playoffs, i have a hard time taking one of my favorite projects, tony mitchell over Plumlee, whos got very little bust potential imo

Which one has very little bust potential?? Mitchell or Plumlee?
 
If we're going to get another first round pick in our current range, I'd like to pick up Olynyk. I think he's the ideal 3rd big and can carry the offense with our bench unit if need be.
 
if we were to trade for another 2nd and take

Shabazz @14
Plumlee@21
Jaiteh@40
Siva@46

id be really, really excited for next season. we have a yooung team thats ready to impose their will (i hope), Bring over Tomic also

Send Al and Millsap packing, try to get assets back for them. the jazz have so many riches we can wait for the deadline to do something serious, if a championship in 2013 is the goal, that-is. they might still be in asset acquisition mode
