What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

The only certainty is that Denver will not be picking up the phone if we call. . .

That's true too. Denver or Sacramento, or anyone for that matter, might not want to help us. We might be able to deal with Brooklyn or Miami if they get above us in the draft order though, as those teams might not care about our rise in the ranks.

Brooklyn's pick will be swapped with Atlanta's so... yah... Atlanta will be picking in the lottery. They have the chance to be champions AND get the first pick in the draft.

Also, Miami's pick goes to PHI if it isn't top 10.
 
So....now that the Jazz have dropped to 11th, that leaves us looking at:

Towns-gone
Okafor-gone
Russell-gone
Mudiay-gone
Hezonja-gone
WCS-gone
Porzi-gone
Johnson-gone
Oubre-probably gone
Turner-probably gone

Winslow, Booker, Looney, Kaminsky and Portis

I might go with Looney or Portis at that point. Chad Ford thinks Looney will be gone and we'll take Winslow.

I doubt Portis goes in lottery. He rose quietly but he still doesn't have the upside of a lottery pick. I like him though. Good passer, shooter, defensive game. Could be a perfect fit for Hawks.
 
Well, we could always replace Joe Ingles with Devin Booker. It's really not a bad fall-back position. I look at the impact that Jason Terry had with the Mavs championship team, and I start feeling more comfortable with it.

I think Porzingis will drop several spots. Winslow and Booker may not be there when the Jazz pick, as they'll probably be workout wonders.
 
Well I'm on the Oubre wagon at the moment, so I'd be happy with that. I think Oubre is going to wow people in workouts too though.

Watching Oubre highlights, I think his style of game compares well to Tayshaun Prince. More perimeter oriented, looong. A lot to like in Oubre, just wish he was more consistent. Would be happy with the pick.

I think he has the most potential with the players around our pick.
