Why I'm disappointed with the draft...and a possible way to fix it

Why? As a backup plan we have Cotton, I don't think Cotton is a downgrade from Burke.

I'm just saying Burke isn't necessarily expendable as a result of drafting Hanlan. I'm not sure Hanlan is even a point guard in the NBA. If anything, the guy who may make Trey expendable is already on the roster in Cotton.
 
Interesting comparison between Hanlan and Cotton. Very similar numbers playing in the same conference. Both played huge minutes and were big scorers.

Hanlan's advantage is that he's a lot bigger at 6'5" to Cotton's 6'1". I believe that gives him a fairly significant upper hand with Snyder simply due to the flexibility it gives the Jazz, as the league is trending toward versatility and it obviously matters to Quin.

Yeah, that might be the most interesting of the training camp battles, because I'm not sure I see us going into the season with Exum, Cotton, and Hanlan as our PG's.
 
I think Cotton plays bigger than 6'1".

For some reason I can't put my finger on, that was my favorite version on YouTube. . .
 
And we still need a legit 3/4 behind Hayward, unless the plan is to use a combo of Burks, Hood, and Hayward at the 2/3, which I guess would be fine, barring injury. *knock on wood*

We also have ingles and lilsap who have shown that they can be solid backups.
5 solid wings is enough imo

Cotton is not even 6-0, probably closer to 5-10. Looked it up -- measured 5-11.25 without shoes.
 
If the Jazz are in the market for a defensive 3/4, Al Farouq Aminu is an obvious choice. His skills at the 3 are undoubtedly more proven than last year. High character, high effort player - anyone who watched the Rockets vs Mavs series saw that Aminu is worth several million more than what he was being paid. He doesn't turn 25 til September, probably looking for a Trevor Booker type of deal.
