Following potential 2013 draftees

I don't particularly like NBAdraft.net rankings, but I thought I would share with everyone what they have for the Jazz right now.

With the #8 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, the Utah Jazz select Otto Porter of Georgetown (6'8" to 6'9" depending where you look and 205 lbs SF)

Not the best video. Please add others if you can find them.
 
With the #18 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, the Utah Jazz select CJ Leslie of NC State (6'9" 200 lbs SF/PF)

A personal favorite of mine, just ask PKM (yes, we know, he has not had the right coach or the right system)

Actually, looks like you don't need to ask PKM. :)

Hell yes. I don't claim to be a good talent evaluator, but every time I've seen this dude he has stood out to me. I'm surprised he didn't come out this year. Where would he have gone if he did, draft expert guys?
 
With the #48 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, the Utah Jazz select Christian Watford from Indiana University (6'8" 229 lbs SF/PF)

Here is a good video of him

I fully expect PKM to neg rep me for this one.
 
Here is a highlight video of Christian Watford:

It is very hard a highlight video of this guy that does not include the buzzer beater.

PKM and I have talked about him a little bit. He is playing in a system and under a coach that doesn't know how to use him. He is very skilled (imo) and he also seems to play with some sort of a chip on his shoulder. What I mean by that is anytime he plays against a better team or against a player that is highly regarded he doesn't back down and certainly gets a lot of the spotlight his way. I would love this kid to play on the Jazz. He doesn't have the best outside shot but as you can see he is athletic and knows how t get to the rim and make things happen for his team. He is currently playing PF for NC State.

Probly the only games I've seen of him were in the ACC and NCAA tournaments. He was awesome.
 
If we go with those very same picks but go off of draftexpress.com and their current player ranking the Jazz daft would look something like this:

#8 Adonis Thomas (Alex Poythress went at #7)
#18 Joshua Smith (Yuck!)
#48 Sergey Karasev (Who?)

Video's will be posted soon.

So you saw him when he stepped up his game. Yes, he was awesome. I wouldn't be ashamed to say that he looked like the best player on the floor most of the time.
