Jazz actually trying to move up?

[Gyp Rosetti]

If you get #4, you take Wesley Johnson and don't look back. With Cousins, you'll have constant complaining that Sloan's too hard and that there's nothing to do in Utah. He's talented, but I can envision a Luther Wright-like fall from grace.

Johnson is a Utah kind of guy and IMO will end up being the best player from this draft.

This.

I don't know that Johnson will be the best player of this draft, but I will say that on the Jazz I can guarantee at least one All-Star game on his rookie contract. He's also what I'd consider to be one of only three sure-things in this draft as far as star-potential is concerned (the other two being Wall and Turner, Favors' lack of production/impact scares me, Cousins has insane boom/bust potential, and everyone else has significant question marks, IMO).

The Jazz aren't getting a first round pick, let alone a top 5, for an unproven European taken in the second round, who may or may not even ever play in the NBA. But I must say this was a nice fantasy.

Tomic will play in the NBA, he is quickly becoming one of the best Euro players in the top Euro league. He will make the transition eventually.
