Rate our draft!

I don't get the Tyrone and Paige picks but adding Hill and Bolomboy is legit. I'd give it a B or B-.
 
I'd say A-

This draft sucked *** and we got a starter out of it.

Agree. Also believe we got a player that will make the team in Bolomboy. Kinda perplexed why the Jazz decided half of the roster needed to be point guards. But I fully trust Lindsey knows what he's doing. I believe we will add a significant piece before training camp. OKC won the night without having a pick.
 
My biggest complaint was that we couldn't do what the Warriors did to get McCaw. Loved him. Otherwise, the quality of this draft was poor. I'm not too bent out of shape that we, for the most part, stayed out of it. And hey, we turned a late lottery pick into (and this is at the very minimum) a top 15 PG. I can live with that.

It's a waste because we could have just signed a similar combo guard in free agency without giving up anything. Mario Chalmers for instance.

This might be sort of true if there was no limit to the number of players you could have on your team.

Chalmers was just one example. The key factor here is, is George Hill THAT much better than Chalmers (or anyone else available in free agency) that you give up a lottery pick for him? No chance.

Since you can only play 5 players at a time, players who are only a little bit better are a lot more valuable. If they allowed us to play Chalmers and whoever we could have gotten at 12 plus four other starters (for a total of 6 guys) at the same time, you would be right.

Yes, George Hill is way ahead of Chalmers. Late lottery picks were jack this year. Players who were projected to go in the 2nd round or late 1st ended up getting taken with late lottery picks this year.
 
Did we just learn the value of Trey Burke? I'm assuming the Jazz reached out and tried to trade him for a pick and no one took.

[MENTION=4696]SCS[/MENTION]- what free agent point guards are you talking about?

I have a feeling trading into the late first round probably got extremely hard with all the late lottery/mid first projected picks falling because teams where reaching for players.
