What's new

Following potential 2013 draftees

Jrue was a stud in his senior year in high school, and he never really played much in college (played SG in the backcourt with Collison I think) so I think Jrue might have been the better college player had he stayed for longer.


Still, if CJ can become a poor man's Jrue with better shooting but worse athleticism, I mean that aint bad for our team roster as presently-constituted.

I was being lazy.. this is a good post.
 
I think PKM is trying to tell us something, like not to get our hopes up. If new age CJ is gone then just draft Giannis then the Bongo and get Adonis in round 2.
 
No he can't.

Wasn't Goodwin just with the best college coach ever? If he is still having IQ problems, there isn't much hope for him IMO. He can still be a good player, but not one I want.


******Warning, this is serious post.******

Look, I hear what you are tyring to say but let's look at a few things.

#1, the kid is still a teenager! I don't know how old you are Cy but I am sure that you were a bit a of a douche when you were that age and I'm sure there were plenty of people that wondered if you would ever get "it". I know people thought the same thing about me.

#2, he only played one year under the best college coach of all time. Yes, I am exaggerating here about Coach Cal but still, the kid only got one year of college ball.

#3, his abilities. He has shown some amazing flashes during that one year of college ball. Yes, he also showed some head scratching moments but his athletic abilities cannot be taught. I think that he is worth a look with the GS pick depending on who is still on the board at that point.

******You will now return to some not serious posts from orangello*****
 
I think my Big Board would go something like this:

1 Noel
2 Smart
3 McLemore
4 Porter
5 Bennett (he's got some bust potential)
6 Shabazz
7 Burke
8 McCollum
9 Adetokunbo
10 Olynyk
11 Norvel Pelle (but he needs to be awesome in workouts)
12 Oladipo
13 Archie Goodwin (I still believe)
14 Saric
15 Carter-Williams
16 Dieng
17 Blah blah Zeller blah
18 Isaiah Austin
19 Karasev
20 Withey
21 McGary or maybe GRIII (not sure)

Hopefully this is not how the draft goes...... basically I don't really want any of those guys that will be available where the jazz pick.
Im with sandy... point guard is all I really want (unless we can get porter or oladipo somehow) burke or McCollum (I kinda want him more than burke) needs to happen.
No to MCW

Now if the jazz could get Teague or Bledsoe then that would work as well.
The draft comes before free agency correct?..... if so, then that's too bad.
 
What does Goodwin bring to the table that Burks doesn't?

Burks is bigger, a better shooter, a better driver, and just overall a better player.

I guess Goodwin may be more explosive, but their margin of difference isn't that much.
