[Brown Notes]

Wish his assist # was better. I really like him, he's very efficient and having played the offense is a nice bonus.

So you want Kanter and Jackson?

 

[NUMBERICA]

From what I've been told, Jackson crumbled against good competition and Knight led his team to a Final Four as a freshman. Jackson also has no left hand to speak of.

But yeah, I don't know. Jackson on paper looks to have juggernaut potential. I started a thread a while ago that was basically all conjecture, but the base point was that three PGs projected late in the 1st/early in the 2nd (Charles Jenkins, Reggie Jackson, and Darius Morris) look about as good to me as any of Knight/Walker/Jimmer (but not Irving), and that the Jazz should try to get a late pick and start trying to find their PG of the future (since Harris is 28 and some other things). Low risk and potentially high reward.

Derrick Williams or Kanter and Jackson

Dream would be to trade Millsap for a pick to get Biyombo and also trade up to get Williams and also draft Reggie Jackson.

That is a pipe dream for all that to happen. But Reggie Jackson is who I want at PG for us. at the 12th pick or trading down to get him.

Ya that is my whole point. I am more passionate about NOT drafting a PG with the 3rd pick than I am about drafting Reggie Jackson in general. I just think the PG's are so overrated in this league and in this draft. Even Irving hasn't played enough in my opinion. I think he is the best for sure just a lot of question marks for a player in the top 3.

Reggie Jackson is one of my sleepers in this draft. He is good value were he is being projected. I think there are a few guys in the 20s that can turn out to be good players. Jenkins (20-40s) and Malcom Lee (25-35) are two sleepers.

I think the Jazz need to go big at #3. I am not that big of a fan taking Knight at 3.

trade a proven 17 and 9 guy for an undersized Biyombo who could be 26, has no offensive game and has the highest bust potential out of anyone in the draft. You would make a great GM

 

[Brown Notes]

I don't know that PGs in general are overrated but we know that a ball dominating scorer did not fit in the flex.

If Corbin is going to run the flex a lot I would rather go in a different direction.

Biyombo is not 26. At the oldest he may be 21-22. Supposedly some doctor did a test on his wrist that suggest he is actually 18.

Agree with this. Love the Sap, but he doesn't quite fit our needs as a big man to start for us.
We need more defense, and rebounding. That is exactly what Bismack will bring to the table.

Big Al and Bismack together? I think it works. It's a little undersized, but they complement each other better on paper than Sap with Al.

Don't know much about Reggie, but you are making me interested in finding out more. He's got a few other fans here too.

Nonetheless, it makes zero sense to trade Millsap for an unproven Biyombo. We would be playing 4 vs 5 on offensive. He is only 6 9 which would be extremely undersized to play the 5
