Its Kanter, D-Will2.0, and Knight in no particular order

It looks like Kanter, D-Will2.0 and Knight will be "The One." And now I know why all the analyst say this is one of the weakest drafts in NBA history. Not one of these top guys doesn't have warts. Kanter is not a true center and wants to play PF, D-Will2.0 is still carrying baby-fat, and knight is a shoot first point guard that doesn't fit the traditional Utah Jazz model.

Saying all that we can use any one of them. Since winning the lottery, I have tried to read everything possible and watch all the videos on each of these players and although they may not be Wade, Kobe, etc. they will each help make the Jazz better. I'm really pumped to be a Jazz fan. It seems everyone has a favorite and I love that people are trying to convince others that their guy should be "The One." Me personally, I have decided to just be happy we have the 3rd pick.

It is entirely possible Kyrie Irving is our choice as well, as many have stated. It is not too hard to see how that happens. It happens if:
1. Cleveland takes Derrick Williams as #1
2. Kahn decides he doesn't need another PG, as Rubio is the future for them there. At least that is what he hopes. So they take Kanter.
3. Jazz have their pick of Irving or Knight.

Irving has to be in the discussion. Don't forget about him. I think he will be there at 3.
 
If Irving is there...

Then the Jazz put together a package around Devin Harris for Nic Batum, trade up from 12 to pick Biyombo, and call it a day.
 
Irving measured about 6'3 in shoes, that blew away everyone's expectations. He is #1 and there will be no doubt about it.

Have you read any of Cleveland's message boards. They need a point guard and Irving is their guy. No way Irving drops to 3. But one can dream.

Now THAT is a pipe-dream. Of the approximately one-bajillion trades that were rumored to be shot down by the Blazers because they wouldn't include Batum makes you think Devin Harris will get it done? I don't know how you feel about Matthews, but he seems like a more likely target since the Blazers still have a glut of SGs and most of their money tied-up in the position.

But yeah, if we're working in terms of pipe-dreams, I'm into it.

So, just to double check, you think there is a 0% chance that Cleveland takes Derrick Williams? I don't buy it.
 
It would be extremely hard to do a deal with Portland, who have shown the drive to go out of their way to **** with us.

Not only is Irving the best prospect, but when you are rebuilding you start with PG and center. I know Lebron turned them around without either, but he is a once in a decade player.

Cleveland needs everything. And they are not set at the SF/PF, as you can see from their depth chart below. PG is not their only need.

Here is their Depth Chart, according to ESPN:
PG:Ramon Sessions Baron Davis
SG:Anthony Parker Daniel Gibson Manny Harris
SF: Alonzo Gee, Christian Eyenga, Joey Graham
PF: J.J. Hickson, Samardo Samuels, Luke Harangody, Antawn Jamison
C: Ryan Hollins Semih Erden Anderson Varejao

They could use Williams and Irving. They will take the best player available. I personally think that is Williams. I don't think that's a dream. Is Irving that much better than Williams?

Jazz pick 3rd so they'll get one of these guys, or Kanter. I'd be happy with anyone except for Knight. Not a Jazz PG.
