Following potential 2014 draftees

[Park Bites]

That was a strange statement. I prefer Parker, btw.

I was just saying with all this randle talk will be meaningless because the jazz are drafting Parker. he will be better at playing the 3/4 position.

Gotcha.. mine was a hypothetical in the event Parker was gone.

Randle is an average to slightly above average (at best) as a SF. He is above average to possibly elite as a PF. Huge mismatch at PF. I hate the idea of putting him at the SF slot.

Agree. If Randle was ok coming off the bench for a few years, Kanter, favors, Randle would be a lethal rotation and all three could still get 30+ mins, with a little Gobert thrown in when foul trouble or injuries occur. Randle would only play at SF if he insists on starting or if the Jazz have to counter with a big 3.

Only problem I have with any of that is I don't worry about player's demands. Whomever is the better player gets the most minutes, period. Age shouldn't matter, at all. Only caveat is if the FO is trying to showcase for a trade or something.

Thought the plan was for the Jazz to draft Aaron Harrison with the Utah pick and then Andrew with the GS one. We'd then have those two for life.

Whoever had that idea... it's pretty solid. (though Andrew with our's and Aaron with GSW... but I knew what you meant)

Oops, faux pas on my part. But they're twins so I can get away with mixing them up.
