Jazz Select Olivier Hanlan

I'm intrigued by this guy... wonder if he is d league bound or if they will use him at the 2 some. We have so many point guard projects.

Well, the poster is "GoFriars" so definitely a fanatical. I think the Jazz really like Cotton. I don't see him as more than a 3rd PG, though. But you never know. He plays uptempo and can get the team into their offense. A starter? Definitely not. Backup? I think that's his ceiling. 3rd PG? Definitely!

Matthew Delavedova just started in the NBA Finals. Albeit, was a back up originally. I am obviously biased as I went to school w/ Bryce but laugh all you want - he is the best PG on your team right now BY A LONG SHOT. Cotton is twice the player of Delavedova. Its a shame that most of you instantly discrediting him is because of his height. Its June so its all talk but i beg you to remember this post when Cotton is starting for the Jazz (or another NBA team.)
 
I like Cotton, but if he starts for the Jazz at any point next season, something has gone horribly wrong...

Im not even saying this as a blind fan, but he is going to make you look like such an idiot. Hope he gets traded/signed through FA than smokes you guys. As a Knicks fan (i know, hold the laughter) I would love to see him in NY.

GET OUT! We dont want you call us idiots!!!!
 
Gofriars, no need to argue your point. Summer league is coming up. If he tears it up in summer league, come back and tell us he should be the Jazz starting PG - not that summer league means anything, but at least you will have something to point to. If he is mediocre, sucks or gets outplayed by Exum and Hanlan (or scrubs from other SL teams), you have no argument.

Hes not going to, so Im not too worried. I find it slightly humorous how he teared it up in the 5 games he got substantial minutes in last year and everyone has there excuses "no one was trying", "meaningless games", etc. Unfortunately, I probably wont be able to watch summer league games but I will be sure to come back once the season starts and we see this whole forum touting how they knew Cotton could be this good all along. :|

He's a little limited just by being so small, but I thought towards the end of last year he was playing well. There are certain things he will never be able to do, but I like him better than Burke, honestly. At least when he starts chucking they seem to go in.

"He's a little limited just by being so small"

Tell that to 75% of the PG's in the NBA? You're right CP3 has no right to start, I mean look at how small he is! Also, I feel like I am beating a dead horse here but I have watched Cotton for 4-5 years, and while you have not seen nearly as much as I you have seen the play of the year for the Jazz when he threw down an alley pop over two 7 ft'ers, correct? The kids is not only the most athletic player on the court but he's got hops. His only weakness is defense, but the Jazz from the small sample size I saw played really good help defense when he was beat/ or on a mis-match

Here's an idea, how about the Jazz trade Cotton for Porzingas.
