Kyle Anderson an option for the Jazz?

Kyle anderson would have been a top 5 pick in 1995. in 2014...no.

KA can create his own shot. Did it versus teh best defender in college, Aaron Gordon.

KA is so slow, but an interesting player of course.

He's really hard to project. Either what he does in college will work out and he will be awesome, or you'll be left wondering why you just drafted Boris Diaw with the number 8 pick.

And this is precisely why he shouldn't even be in the conversation as a top 10 pick. Top 10 is deserving of more wow athleticism, or more of a sure thing, KA is/has neither.

David Lee
Millsap
Boozer
tony Parker
Rajon Rondo
Zach randolph
Mehmet okur
Mo Williams (remember him as a Cav)
Jameer Nelsen
Danny Granger
Marc Gasol
Roy Hibbert
Deandre Jordan
Omar Asik
Nikola Pekovic
Serge Ibaka
And more...

Were all drafted late first round, or second rounders, not because scouts didn't think they had NBA talent, but because they all had some flaw to their game that didn't merit a higher draft status. They needed to prove themselves at the NBA level.

KA is slow. Way too slow for us. We are already the 4th slowest NBA team in league, and that is ine of the big reasons we suck. We are young, with athletic players, mainly our wings, who need a much faster pace.

Is KA a PG? Could he really gaurd any Speedy NBA PG? I know he has the length, but what about the speed? Is he a SF? I know he has the look, but he is yet again incredibly slow. Who is he going to gaurd succesfully?

Point is. There isn't enough for any sane GM to consider him in this years lottery. Mid first round is appropriate.

 

[Hantlers]

Just because he has a lot of assists does not make him a PG.

He's a point-forward, he's never going to be guarding a PG, so I don't see why that's part of the discussion at all. He'll be guarding SF's, and possibly smaller PF's…that's pretty much it.

We already have a bunch of safe players on the team, solid if unspectacular young players. This pick should be a reach, even if it busts. The sad thing is that some of the worst mistakes by this team in the draft have been reaches like that, so it is a nervous proposition.

Good post

Boris Diaw averaged 19-6-5 during the Suns near run to the finals

KA is like a longer, more talented Diaw.

nope

as Deron Williams might say, "KA is kinda skinny fat."

He has a lot of work to do on his body.

If you look at him from last year, he has already made some major improvements.
