I want Rondae Hollis Jefferson

[Handlogten's Heros]

I'd draft him for the shimmy he does before shooting free throws... It makes everyone happy.

I'd say if we can't move up in the draft and Johnson or Kaminsky aren't there I'd be willing to trade down and pick him up later along with other assets. I think at worst he's an Iman Shumpert type. If he learns to shoot he'll be really freaking good... Just like every poster has said.

That would be interesting, trading down to the late teens, grabbing RHJ and getting another asset.

This team needs shooting though and that's not what he brings to the table.

I don't like drafting for need... It leads to mistakes and by time the player is a useable player the team needs may be different. I agree with drafting for projected long-term needs though. But I agree he's not a shooter and it might create issues.

I think I like him better than most people like him... to the point that I wouldn't even be upset if we draft him at 12.

Utah needs shooting though. With Exum and Gobert playing significant minutes, I just can't see us targeting a player who can't shoot.

Do whatever you have to do to get a top prospect in the lottery, then look to burn 2nd round picks and buy a later 1st if he falls far enough. Make a play for a potential star early on, and grab the defensive specialist later if you're so inclined. Then hope he becomes Gobert 2.0 and teams stop selling you picks.
