Now that the Kings are projected to take Fredette at 10...

[JazzBasketball]

Who's projecting the Kings to take Jimmer at 10? I haven't seen anything about this other than those here that hope they do. Last I heard the Kings were torn on Jimmer vs. Walker.

The Kings are "almost certain" to select BYU PG Jimmer Fredette with the No. 10 pick, according to Newsday's Alan Hahn.
SI's Sam Amick also says that rival teams are now expecting the Kings to take Fredette. By trading away Beno Udrih and moving back a few spots, the Kings have set themselves up for Jimmermania. Fredette will immediately compete for plenty of point guard minutes, although we're projecting a big starting lineup that features Tyreke Evans at the "one" for now.

In other news, Atlanta trying to trade Smith to Minnesota to draft Kanter at #2 to have a Horford/Kanter Frontcourt.

Would allow us to draft Derrick Williams

The negative to Jimmer: All the Jazz fans that will show up to the games wearing BYU Jimmer gear. The positive: We will all be able to easily identify and avoid the DBags. Sounds like this might not be an issue to worry about.

Sacramento, Charlotte, and Milwaukee making a trade is like three retards sharing pizza Lunchables and then shoving them up their own butts.

The best career move for Jimmer if Sacramento does take him is to get in some type of Bobby Hurley accident so he can get out of that purgatory and inevitably start broadcasting BYU hoops.

Jimmer would be a nice bench player.

If at all possible, you don't draft a bench player in the lottery.

I think Jimmer will be a fine PG in this league.

Jazz may regret passing him up.

I'm hearing rumors that Sacto isn't done. They are looking to trade the #10 pick and filler with SA for Parker and Jefferson?!? If that's the case they have their PG & a SF.

Just filed Mock 7.2 to my editors. And yes, we have Jimmer going to the Kings at 10. Should be up shortly. Probably a 7.3 before 7:30

Kings acquisitions were NOT to flip them into a deal with the Spurs, I am told.

For JimmerJazz fans what would you be willing to give up to swap 12 for 10, to ensure we get Jimmer?

Brian T. Smith: Fredette to Kings at 10 looks good, sounds great. Not a done deal, though.

Honestly, I've been on Jimmer's junk for a few weeks now but if we can get Walker at 12, I'm over it.

Minus the "junk", I agree with this. I'd prefer Jimmer over Kemba, but if we nab him at #12, I'd be pretty damn happy.

This trade guarantees that the Jazz will take Kanter... I believe Kemba was almost as high on Utahrs board as Knight... great draft if this happens.

Brian T. Smith: Haven't heard Kanter's slipped. But he's also not been informed he's going to Utah. Likely because Jazz are still exploring trade options.
