Following potential 2015 draftees

Problem is they might have trouble getting workouts for Hezonja, Porzingis, and Johnson. Drafting without a workout means they can't really be sure who "their guy" is

Johnson should work out for the Jazz. He can't afford to blow them off.

The Euros might do group workouts for multiple teams or hold workouts in Europe that the Jazz could get access to.

Hayward might be a fair candidate to make the All Star game in the Eastern Conf.

I'm basing this off he fact I think he'll have a better year then last and think the Jazz will win a lot more then last year in the first half of the year.

I think Kaminsky will be a better defender than Kanter.

I'd be depressed if he wasn't. Kanter is one of the worst defenders I've ever seen on an NBA level.

Not all of defense is based on size and strength. Having BBIQ and being dedicated/committed to improving on that end can go a long way. I think Frank has the IQ and commitment level... I'm not sure Kanter does.

Frank is faster laterally than Kanter, but will get bullied a bit in the post I think.

That's why I asked. I thought I must be missing something, but since you're actually kinda lukewarm on him I'm just cement my own opinion. Still not on the bandwagon.

Well, sheesh. I don't see how I could possibly learn anything new. 2.5 more weeks of waiting. I love our FO - total faith in them.

Ya I like oubre cause he has a high ceiling (size, athleticism, measurables, shooting) but he definitely has some red flags and bust potential.

I think of Frank just the opposite way

Exum.

Booker looked really good, I think he might not be there when we draft. Looney is interesting, Kaminsky is solid, Turner is potential.

Yeah he definitely looks more athletic than I gave him credit for. He was dunking those balls pretty easily.

 

[framer]

With Booker and Turner rising, that is going to push some people down. Probably Stanley, which I could live with. . .

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

All of these guys look good in their draft workout videos. They are edited videos designed to make them look good.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Exum.

at the same time we didn't work out Burke. That was a mistake. He was projected to go top 5. The teams that did work him out passed on him.

Makes sense, plus I don't buy booker being that athletic. He didn't play very athletic

Except for the unedited Bobby Portis video with the awful 3 point shooting. Kinda refreshing really.
