Jazz Pre-Draft Camps and Workouts

Damn it. I really, really hope the Jazz move up. If they draft Davis or Monroe with the 9 I'm going to puke my pants. I've dogged Monroe plenty here but he's twice the prospect (or more) than Davis is.

AGREED! I don't like Monroe either. And Davis is even worse. If we draft a big guy they need to have Center length at the PF position. In terms of wing span. Sanders is too skinny though. He length is good though. We need to think championship and I am tired of all of these undersized PF's. Don't draft them. Boozer and Millsap are probably the best 2 undersized PF's and look where it has gotten us against the elite teams in the playoffs? i am sorry but if a guy is 6-8 or 6-9. Dont draft him! unless his wingspan is 7-5 or something. We should be building a championship team. NOT regular season team.
 
Looks like the jazz are starting thier summer leauge tryouts tommorow. Saturday's workout will be 10 players in two sessions. Jared Quayle is returning for a second look, Paul George, Elijah Milsap, Dominique Jones, Marquis Gilstrap, Jeremy Evans, some French Guy & some others.

They do have the 55 pick, you know.
 
I am not a big fan of Monroe or Davis. Granted I only saw each player play a handful of times but what I saw didn't excite me. Both of these guys are very stiff, mechanical while having very obvious holes in their game. I would rather the Jazz trade down and pick the best SF and then pick a center later in the first round than have Monroe or Davis. I could be wrong but I think both of these guys are going to solid average pros.
 
Lil' Millsap wouldn't be a bad 2nd round pick IMO. He appear to possess the same toughness his brother does, is a tremendous rebounder for a wing, and seems like he could have a Wesley Matthews type impact (probably not as big of one, but you know what I mean) on a team full of other good players like the Jazz. I'm not sure how good of a shooter he is though...does he have NBA 3 point range? Probably not right now, but can he develop it? Can he knock down open 20 foot jumpers like Brew used to get all the time?
 
Then again, it would probably be likely that Lil' Sap would accept an invite to Jazz camp if he goes undrafted, which is probable.
