It's this time of year, I decided to do my big board, too. I think it'd be interesting to see what people think mid-December vs sometime closer to the draft and how our perception of the guys in the draft will change. So for the people who've been following some of the prospects I challenge you to post your own big 10 boards specifically in mind with the needs and system of the Jazz and what we want to achieve. Here's mine:
1. Towns
2. Okafor
3. Mudiay
---> those 3, I think, are the players we should draft without consideration for our needs simply on the "best player available" basis(I'm putting Towns first on basis of potential and needs). I think those are players we cannot afford to miss on even if we already have good players or projects at those positions.
4. Porzingis --> need for stretch 4 and potential
5. Stanley Johnson -> need for perimeter defender
6. Justise Winslow -> need for perimeter defender
---> I was higher on Stanley Johnson before I got to watch him in games in which he was consistently getting beat off the dribble. Winslow is getting much closer to him on my list than previously...
7. Mario Hezonja
8. Chris McCoulough
9. D'Angello Russell
10. Kevon Looney
