Following potential 2015 draftees

I just think that unless he starts knocking down jumpshots Lyles will bust in a spectacular fashion.

I think in a few years he's near automatic from mid-range, honestly. If they take him at 12, the Jazz probably feel that way. He shoots it easy.

I think Looney is a really good pick. He can really shoot with a nice, quick release out to 3-pt range. He rebounds with great length and timing. He'll get better as he gets stronger. He can defend out on the perimeter and can defend most 4s. He has some PG skills. He does everything the Jazz would want a PF to do. He's really young and played with injuries all year for a gummed up UCLA team that had lousy spacing. I think he's a really legit pick.

He's not explosive, but he can get above the rim if he has space to wind up.

Jazz might take Lyles at 12...










for the Knicks.

To don't have strongly negative opinions about most players in the Jazz's range, but Trey Lyles is ****ing garbage. A talented sleepwalking dope who has no particular strength and will fold. I'm hoping that Locke's weird homer boner is some kind of smokescreen or he might be the worst talent evaluator with a voice that I can think of.

explain this? Seems like a good guy never heard anything as far as on off court troubles. Seems smart and down to earth. Just curious where this negativity for Lyles comes from?

My question with Lyles actually is toughness. In playoff basketball when things get more fierce, is Lyles going to step it up. I can see that toughness in Portis.

I'm firmly on the Oubre-Turner-Johnson bandwagon! If we get any of them I'd be happy!

Don't know how someone wouldn't want Oubre on the Jazz. His handle is clean, dribbles the ball low, shoots it well. His wingspan is crazy long and he's interchangeable with all the wing's they have now.

I like him better than Johnson and Winslow. Just think he's prototypical and his defensive length and instincts fit right in. You look at the impact that guys like Matt Barnes, Trevor Ariza and Andre Iguodala had in the playoffs. You look at Khris Middleton as a possible max contract guy. I like Oubre's tools better than those guys. It's just about work ethic and willingness to fit in.

I've said it before, but the length and quickness of Oubre and Exum on the perimeter combined with the length and quickness we have inside, could make the Jazz a buzzsaw defensively.

Oubre would be great. Keep seeing him mocked 15ish and don't get it.

 

[RandyForRubio]

Seth Davis does this thing where he interviews 4 scouts and 2 GM's and they get to be anonymous. Obviously some of it could be smokescreen, but who knows. This is what they had to say about Oubre:

Kelly Oubre Jr., 6’7” forward, Kansas: “Kelly’s a real enigma in this draft. He’ll probably go right outside the lottery, but he’s still a long ways away from being a contributor at the NBA level. I want to like him, but I don’t trust his shot at all. He can’t guard anybody. Drove Bill Self out of his mind. Very intriguing athlete, but he doesn’t have any game off the dribble. He had a fairly disappointing season at a place where freshmen usually succeed.”

Just curious where this negativity for Lyles comes from?

Probably just comes from the fact he's trash.
