Following potential 2014 draftees

I think Exum has a lot to prove, but I could see Favors going 4th or 5th depending on how Andrew Harrison does.

I mention it, because a fall-back position for the Jazz would be to trade Favors and a pick to move up into the top 6 for Parker or one of the Harrisons. Gobert will probably provide good rim protection and pick-and-roll defense when he bulks up. The combination of Kanter on offense and Gobert on defense might make Favors moderately expendable, if need be. Adding an elite wing gives us better floor balance.

I think this coming season should really tell us how good Favors can be as a defender. If he can consistently be our defensive pivot, and give us scoring here and there, I think he's not worth trading for anyone not named Wiggins.
 
Comparing Wiggins to Tmac is a joke. Wiggins is on his own level in terms of strength, feel and explosion. He shows potential to do things that literally no one has done before. He could be the Dr. J of our time, maybe better.

Parker is also better than Paul Pierce. I'm not sure who to compare him to yet, but he's so well rounded that he could be like a more up-to-date version of Alex English.

I think Randle is like Chris Webber with some modern enhancements--an athlete who can do things that PFs normally can't do out on the floor. Webber was a break-through for the PF position at his time. Mentally, Webber just wasn't tough enough though.

I would trade Favors for Randle right now.

I would trade Favors for that Towns kid right now.

i hate tmac and all but the guy averaged 30 ppg in the league at one point

i would say tmac comp is pretty high praise

im all for hyping players, but lets not overblow wiggins especially before he has proven a single thing even at the college level
 
What kind of players will be available around 20ish (likely Golden State)? We could use a quality back up big man.

Maybe Mitch McGary, Isaiah Austin, Willie Cauley-Stein, Alex Poythress--although they could go in the teens. I think the Warriors pick should be in the late teens this year, actually.
 
After watching 2 min of footage I feel 100% confident in saying that we need to darft Exum.

Where is he gonna play this year?

I dunno.. I have a good feeling about Aaron Harrison.. he has DWade/Eric Gordon type potential... if we can get him with our GSW pick that would be a home run.

He COULD join a college team mid-season this year.
His dad went to UNC but the rumor is Dante likes Indiana.

Dante has said he doesn't want to join a team mid-season.
Dante has said he DOES want to spend a year playing college bb.
Most people I've spoken to feel he's going to stay put through next year and enter the draft as he's projected top 7 as it is.

Dont forget about Saric, but I think there is a good chance he will end up in the lottery. Played very well in the U19 tournament.

Why half way through the season? Because thats when Aussie HS finishes?
