I actually think Kanter won't realize his potential because his BBIQ is not high enough. Or it's Corbin making him look really bad.
 
I suspect Hayward's future with the team is entirely dependent on what kind of offer Boston or another team throws his way rather than on anything related to the draft.

It's somewhat clear that if Hayward gets a max offer the Jazz are not particularly inclined to match.
Agree with this If price is too high then its Hayward, otherwise if I can pick two it will be Kanter -corbin just doesn't know how to use him. Watch this space if we trade Kanter we'll get beat up each time we play him and his new team.
 
The Jazz have cap space and time on their side. I think they should. . .

A.) Get through the trade deadline and hopefully make some moves to add assets from Marvin, Jefferson and/or Rush.
B.) Finish out the season featuring the Core5 and then hire a new coach (hopefully someone who will run more and use the altitude to their advantage.)
C.) See exactly where they land in the lottery and then pick the best players available with every selection.
D.) Hit free agency and see exactly what Hayward actually gets offered on the open market. . . then choose to match/not match or facilitate a sign & trade to pick up more assets.
E.) Use their left-over cap space to pull off another deal like last year with Golden State to help a team make the room under the cap that they need to play in free agency for 2014.
F.) Move on from any of JLIII, Jefferson, Biedrins and Rush if they're still on the team.
G.) Look at bringing back Marvin depending on what the cost will be. If contract offers are comparable, he might choose to either stay or come back (if he's traded by the deadline.)
H.) Spend another season evaluating the Core5 guys (plus Gobert) together along with the new draft picks added to the mix AND THEN really decide which five players are the best fit for the future. Build around those guys and try to trade the guys who don't fit.

I just don't think that they have enough information yet to make those types of decisions with success.
