Following potential 2013 draftees

I think people are getting too caught up on the draft when they start suggesting the Jazz would trade Favors for Len. Why would the Jazz hire the Mailman to coach him and then trade him? Favors has shown that he works hard and wants to improve. Now that AJ and Millsap are out of the way he is finally going to get his chance.

I like Len but he hasn't proven anything and I would be cautious due to his foot injury.

Guys... 10 potential draftees were invited to the green room:

https://espn.go.com/nba/draft2013/story/_/id/9413629/2013-nba-draft-10-players-invited-green-room-sources-say

The NBA has issued 10 preliminary invitations to its "green room" for Thursday night's draft, according to multiple sources.

Those invited are: Nerlens Noel (Kentucky); Victor Oladipo (Indiana); Otto Porter (Georgetown); Alex Len (Maryland); Anthony Bennett (UNLV); Ben McLemore (Kansas); Trey Burke (Michigan); Michael Carter-Williams (Syracuse); C.J. McCollum (Lehigh) and Cody Zeller (Indiana).

The top prospects in the draft usually receive the invites to the green room, where the players, their families and agent sit on draft night. When their names are called, they leave the room and go up on stage to shake commissioner David Stern's hand.

NBA general managers are polled to determine which players are likely to be drafted in the lottery.

In the past, the NBA has expanded the list of green room invites as the draft date nears. Typically, the NBA has invited 13-to-15 players.

This year, the league has told a number of agents it may add a few names to the list as the draft approaches.

Several others players, including Georgia's Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Pittsburgh's Steven Adams, UCLA's Shabazz Muhammad, Russia's Sergey Karasev, Gonzaga's Kelly Olynyk and Greece's Giannis Antetokounmpo, could be extended invites.

Ten invites and none of them are Shabazz?

People who think Giannis is too skinny need to realize that he's the same height and just two pounds lighter than Otto Porter. Porter is 18 months older.

I mean, Giannis is actually too skinny, but he can add bulk and is basically starting with Otto Porter's frame.
 
New Strategy:

1) draft a big at 14 (Noguiera, Dieng or Zeller) ... okay, I might be open to taking Shabazz.

2) draft Goodwin at 21

3) get a shooter like Southerland or a back-up PG like Nemanja or Canaan

4) get a PG through free agency


Shabazz + Goodwin > McCollum
