Hoopsworld Rumor: Brandon Knight at #3?

If we do get Knight, I would love to try to move up from 12 to 8 or 9 to get Biyombo. Don't get me wrong. I'd be content with Burks or Singleton at 12. But Biyombo seems to possess the length, athleticism and most of all leadership and mindset we sorely need. I'd love to see that rub off on Favors and have a Garnett/Perkins-like frontcourt in the two young men with Knight and Hayward starting on the wings for the next 10 years.

Biyombo leadership? Where did you pull that from?

nice. I bet we could find a suitor pretty easily. Someone who has an eye on Marcus Morris or Klay Thompson or the like. We probably wouldn't have to give up too much. A future late first round pick maybe? <sarcasm font>CJ miles?</sarcasm font>
 
I think CJ Miles would get you a last first round, especially in this draft. I would not trade him for a late 1st round though.
 
Hayward, Knight, CJ Miles and Okur are all great shooters.

AK, Harris, Burks and even Millsap are all decent shooters.

I think we have a good amount of shooters of the floor.

Millsap is a much better shooter than Miles. Do you believe in facts?

hey utahjazz107, this is where you say you never said Miles was better at making 3's you only said shooting 3's.


In all seriousness though, sappy only shot 23 all season. Not a lot to go off of. But then again, that miami game should be evidence enough.

Shot-selection is as much a part of a shooter's acumen as anything is, and Millsap has been nailing that 15-20 footer for a couple of years now with consistency. Miles hasn't done ANYTHING consistently (well) in 6 years.
