Following potential 2015 draftees

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I think Johnson is likely to be available at #10.

At the moment, the "consensus" is that he's behind the top 4 + Winslow, Hezonja, WCS, Porzingis, and Turner (pending medical clearance).

I'm still fine with Oubre, though I think he may only be a nominal upgrade over Hood (defensively). I think the way Hood is playing, the Jazz might pick a big instead.

I also have no problem if the Jazz want to draft a PG like Cameron Payne in a trade-down scenario. I think Burke's days are numbered.

Adding 7 to the draft in 3.. 2..

For the most part, Mario's passing looks really good in this video. He seems like a smart player.

I think he's got the potential to be better than any wing currently on our roster. Great size, athletic ability, 3 point shooting, BBIQ, defensive potential, and alpha attitude.

It's like Johnson & Winslow switched slots.

I think we'll draft Turner. I think we're set at SG-SF with Hood, Burks, Ingles & Hayward. If Tomic comes over we need a backup PF (Booker is awesome but he's a tough tweener). I like Turner as he plays defense and can stretch the floor. I like his ceiling.

Also, this is one of the worst PG drafts I've ever seen. The only PG I like as a value pick is Kris Dunn and he's supposed to go at the end of the 1st round.

Turner isn't a PF... He is slow laterally but provides some rim protection. His shooting also went in the tank in the middle to end of the season. He's a pretty big project... I doubt he'd help us at all next year even in limited action.

It's official...


Surprised Booker is entering? PKM said he might not considering falling draft stock...

Yeah - he just turned 19. He's a solid shooter with good interior footwork who plays very solid defense. Also, many draft sites are considering him a PF more than a C.

Haha.. ok, you called it as always.

Tokoto declaring for the draft too:

If he falls to the second round I'd take a chance on him.

How does he not fall to the 2nd? He's not very good.

Really? Mudiay, Russell, Grant, etc. There are some great ones in this draft.
