What's new

Greg Miller: We need to get bigger and we need to improve our shooting

You have no idea what you are talking about. You only know.....THE KANTER. Btw...interested to know how you became a fan of the jazz.

i know very well what im talking about, im following the draft boards whole year. I like knight a lot, but i wished to get him at 12 in ncaa tourney and it seemed likely, then i thought, well he isnt bad, we can pick him at 6. And now, he rose to 3? Well he is good but not that good. Its ok if we pick him with a trade and using 12 th pick but not at 3 plz. I wouldnt compare him to either Irving and Kanter.

When i started watching nba intensively, it was the year memo was allstar and utah went to conference finals. So , you gotta thank to turkish players to include me inside the jazz community. Anyway we say, The Team is chosen once. So i am not gonna leave my team even if memo gone or whatever else happens. Just i am frustrated to see always a playoff team, staying in the same point for many years. Its better to be like cleveland, at least they have hope to get a great draft pick and be contender again. We r getting very lucky picks in the last 2 yrs, new york pick was came outta nowhere, and this pick was a real gift of God. Last year they made a good choice and i hope this year too they will use the pick well, getting best player available . Because its very likely that we wont have a 3rd pick again in the next couple centuries
 
Not too long ago, Knight was not in top 10. After all of the important players withdrawn he rose to 3. Its not about worthy or talent stuff, its bullsh....

Yes I agree. I remember Chad Ford had Knight floating between 7 - 10 at one point with top 6 being: Irving, Williams, Kanter, Vesely, Jonas and Kemba in no particular order.

It wasn't until Jazz got the 3rd pick when virtually every mock drafts started having Knights being the 3rd pick.

its becuz knight they think knight is good fit for us and it is true, the best fit in the draft for utah is either irving or knight. But the question is whether to take the best guy available or best fit?

Since we are in a rebuilding process, its better to pick the best guy available, so we can set the skeleton of the team on hayward favors and lets say kanter. And its not difficult to find complementing pieces once u have a good core. Jefferson and harris cant be part of a core who can be contender.
Otherwise, if we get knight, we will have 2 young core players, plus Jefferson, knight, decent additional players but not enough.

It is like, we have already kobe and bynum, instead of getting Gasol, we prefer to get a decent pg and keep our decent big man. It doesnt make sense for me

Most people have Knight ranked ahead of Kanter.
 
This is what's great about having the 3rd pick .. High likelihood at getting a great player, regardless.

I've been tracking the mock drafts for a while now, and that only happened after the Jazz got the #3 pick. That is, they have Knight ranked higher because they think the Jazz will likely pick him, not necessarily because they think he should be ranked ahead of Kanter.

On the other hand you had almost all mock drafts at one time (before draft order was determined) with us picking Fredette. So why dont more think that we could pick Kanter (trade Millsap or Jefferson for a wing) and then take our golden boy Fredette?

Thank you!!!
 
Lit'cherlly ell oh ell'd!! You have MAYBE only seen YouTube clips of these kids and now they are "your guys"?

-Austin Rivers isnt a PG, period.

-Kabongo has Stevie Franchise written all over him

-Teague; "ehhhh"

-Marshall.............

But you keep hope for the future, ok. Tell us all about the 2013 crop of guys you've


never seen play either, in a few months.

I never gave my opinions of these players, I just listed their names.

You are the one with the specific opinions on these players.

How dumb can you be?

I'm guessing because the mock draft people simply don't think we'll want Jimmer as much any more if we go with a PG with our first pick.
 
I think you can get bigger and longer in more positions than just center. Picking Kanter doesn't necessarily make us any longer, however, Williams at 3 as a 3 does make us longer.
