Following potential 2013 draftees

do you think Kanter and Favors will be able to help gobert if he gets pushed around?

if the answer to that is yes, i dont see how we cant go after a player like Gobert or Noguiera

Adams also fits but he wont need any help being pushed around

I probably like Kanter with both of those guys more so than Favors. Kanter, particularly with Bebe.. Kanter can hold guys away from the rim knowing Bebe can help.
Kanter can be free to freelance a bit on offense having some rebounding below..

I guess I just said I like Kanter over Favors.. hahha.
 
if im enes kanter im screaming at someone to get Noguiera or Gobert

or a player like James Ennis or Tony Mitchell, because Kanter establishes great position these guys can take advantage of the lanes, and Gobert can keep the ball alive, Kanter and Favors can go get it..

i really hope the jazz try to dominate the boards, the foundation is there..

how about

Gobert@14
Giannis@21
Southerland@46

Sign Brandon Jennings and tell him we want alley oops and ball movement, and catch and shoot, let him drive at the end of the game if its needed...

this plan is awesome and we have a TREMENDOUS team if Giannis is getting time at SF and Gobert at C

Blocks? Steals? wed have tons, and Dunks, plus

Giannis Kanter Gobert and Favors on the boards...

play Gordon at SG, Jazz are a matchup nightmare

teams in the west wont trade with us, obviously

also whats the average age of the team... 22, 23, 24??
 
It saddens me you are pro schro. Do you guys not see the major weaknesses and red flags in his game. There's a reason no one had heard of him till a month or two ago.

No one besides NBA scouts, that is. Could it be that being 18 and playing in Germany possibly has anything to do with that? Of course not. No one that people learned existed over the course of a few months ever did anything.

I bet most don't like it. I'm not among them. I like it. (Though I doubt Giannis is still on board at 21.
 
im not going to elaborate too much, but Giannis is no Al Farooq Aminu

i cant see why in the world youd waste a 4 year rookie contract on that kid when Aminus on the market at 23 years old


to me

Aminu was clearly a top 10 pick

Kahwi Leonard was a borderline lotto guy

Giannis is an early 20's guy in my book
 
well then ill tell you why

Basketball IQ

theres a massive gap

Giannis is Raw even vs Aminu during the draft, now at 23 its ever more apparent
also

Timing, Aminu's is proven and Giannis has a chance but its not the same

also the thing that justifies Aminu as a top 10 guy is Rebounding, Passing and his Dribbling Ability is quite nifty, especially when you see him start the fastbreak off a Dreb

Giannis will be a slasher and im not sure what else, who knows though he could very easily grow to 7'

Perry Jones was a way better prospect than Giannis also..
 
It's rare to find a 6'9" player with the ability to handle the ball, pass, drive, shoot and defend. This type of player can put enormous pressure on the defense. Giannis is a well-rounded player with some significant upside if he can gain some strength and explosiveness. In this particular draft he stands out.

Next year, there are several big athletes who are multi-dimensional players, but I think Giannis will always be able to fit in as a big wing. Giannis is a guy teams can initiate through. The talent is pretty obvious.
 
i bet favors(or aminu) blocks the **** outa giannis if we play em... i could even see Hayward getting giannis bad in transition, hes not used to NBA players

doesnt finish strong

and you vouch for his jumpshot? i cant tell if thats gonna be any good, honestly.
 
2013 draft Giannis at SF and a 3rd Big (Gobert, Adams, Withey, Plum,...)

2014 draft a PG.

Or draft a PG this year and hope for Parker @ SF in 2014.

?

Parker would be huge. There's not many PG's in next year's draft, either.
Somebody will probably dog cuss me for saying this for 100th time since 2010.. but a PG needs to be gotten in FA.
