What's new

Following potential 2013 draftees

plumlee is ready now but besides being athletic what else does he bring to the table? if zeller dropped he is the most well rounded of all of them. not in love with Len but if he is there would be very interesting. scouts say he has the best game of all of them.
 
if bazz is going to go around 10 I would trade burk and swap picks to move up and get him. in that range he is a steal. imagine him and Hayward playing on the wings.
 
The league is trending towards spacing being extremely important. Can you really afford to play two guys who can't score outside of the paint, and who aren't even great scorers within the paint, at the same time?

Also, Whithey getting over-powered in the NBA is a concern.

Haha.


Wut


Olynyk weighs 3 more pounds than Whithey, and Whithey plays a lot tougher.


Again, picking Whithey isn't to start next to Favors. We have to bolster our big rotation. I dont want Sap or Al back. I don't think Whithey would kill your spacing either. He isn't a terrible shooter, and he can get better.

I would rather have bad spacing than lazy bigs anyways. We have seen already how that plays out.



I guess its just a difference in philosophy. I put defense up there pretty high. I don't care if I can space the floor really good if I can't defend the paint. It seems really pointless. Which is why I was never a fan of Memo being our starting center.

Whithey has motor questions.

He took 14 jumpers all year, he has no jumper.

He ranks dead last in offensive rebounding rate of all centers in Draft Express's database. Offensive rebounding is often a product of hustle and effort.

I would like to have Whithey. I like him, but there are players I'm more interested in at 21. I'm not really interested in any bigs in this draft after Austin left. There are a lot of good ones, but none I really see being a fit for Utah.
 
Do you think he is going to be that bad? I think he has potential to be a rotation player at the very least.

Well yeah, he has a shot of being a rotation player. He isn't going to be Corey Maggette though, which is what the question was. I just don't think he has a chance at being that efficient of a scorer.
 
Will people please stop suggesting trading Burks for lesser players? Not only that, but people want to throw in picks.???? Huh?


Newflash... Burks is good and has a chance to be really good.

The Jazz have just held him back.
