What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Seriously, the more I watch Embiid the more I want him on the Jazz. He is now number 3 on my list. I am ready to trade Kanter + Burks + 2016 pick for the chance to draft him. I just love the kid.
 
I didn't know they introduced quarters in the NCAA!

And it's gonna be a fun night with everyone hating UK!

Looks like Saric had another good game. 19pts 13 reb and 5 assists. If he improved his 3 point shot I think teams drafting around 6 would seriously consider him, but as is probably around 9-11 will be his landing spot.

He didn't improve his long range shooting! I don't think he deserves any top10 mentions. Consistency is a big issue right now.
 
Jerami Grant deserves another mention as a candidate for the GS pick. He is having a really nice year (27 PER). Looks to be a legit 6'9" with elite reach. Limited offensive game but would probably be going top 8 if he had one.

Watched him a little bit, but I'm not sold his athleticism translates. I like his defense, but we see with MKG how little impact wings have in the NBA that can't even hit a corner three spot up with none within 30 feet.
 
Embiid may not be as dominant as Hakeem (at least offensively), but he seems able to do the things Patrick Ewing did. I think he's a lock to be an All Star center.

Burke + Hayward + 3/D player + Favors/Kanter + Embiid = championship contender.

Wiggins, Parker or Embiid added to the current roster would make the Jazz contenders.

imagine

Burke, Hayward, Parker, favors, embiid

or

Burke, wiggns, Hayward, favors, embiid


trade burks, kanter and gsw pick for another top pick

Realistically, I don't think anyone is going to give up a top-5 or top-6 pick in this draft, unless they're getting back a 1st-team All NBA player.

My thought has been 3-way trade Miami-Cleveland-Utah. We pickup Embiid from Cleveland. Lebron goes home. Utah gives up ???? to make it happen?
