With the 47th Pick, Kevin Murphy

Gotta love people upset with this pick... At 47, who exactly are ya gonna get?

It's like... People were expecting Lebron or Dwade at 47....

If this kid makes the team and survives the NBA for more than a year then this kid will have been a success.

Really folks, at 47, who were you really expecting? Who should we have taken?

it just wouldn't be draft time if we didn't have a million posters bitching away.

We're not bitching about Kevin per se.

I think there is a certain emotional cross-over from the fact that we could have done better to get in where the action is...

So what's the answer folks?

What should KOC have done?

What if no one wanted Millsap, Jefferson, or Harris? Those are realistically our only tradeable assets right now. Maybe no one was willing to give up a first rounder for any of those players. I know the only one I'd consider would be Millsap.

And I don't think the frustration is about what KOC should have done. I've read at least 5 posts on the first page complaining about this wasted pick. Huh? As if there was someone who we missed at 47? Taking a chance on a scorer at 47 isn't bad at all. There just isn't much at #47.

This is Negotiation 102: "Hey LA and Dallas, we can get picks for this TPE. We're already talking to teams who want to dump their garbage on us for picks. So if you're not giving us picks we like, we're done here."

I hope KOC is creating a bidding war...even if there isn't really one. Both LA and Dallas want this deal to happen, so either could step forward with additional value. Problem is the TPE expires in December. Players generally don't get traded then; last year was an odd situation. Really, the TPE needs to be used before training camp and likely in the next couple of weeks when free agency and player movement is at a peak. My fear is that like so many times before, Greg and KOC will opt for cash savings and just let the TPE expire. Then KOC will tell us at the trade deadline that he shopped Jefferson and Harris, but there was nothing out there that would have made the team better. In the end, Jazz may let all 3 big assets go unused.
 
If this guy turns out to be Mo Almond he'll easily be our 2nd best SG and 3rd best wing. I'd take Mo over CJ, Raja, and Josh Howard. I would also like to add that this guy seems a lot more athletic than Mo. I seem to remember Mo struggling to get open or create in the NBA due to his lack of athleticism. This guy looks like he can at least run and jump...

I think people are forgetting how pathetic Raja was last year and how useless chucker Howard was. Raja was seriously worse than John Starks and Calbert Cheney. And those guys sucked. Howard was basically Big Al but a SF version... He did nothing but chuck... And...

CJ was CJ. Drunk most of the time but once in a while would hit a 3...

Burks and Hayward should get heavy minutes this next year... I think this more athletic version of Mo Almond has a good chance of making the team. If he can hit a 3 once in a while that will put him above Raja and Josh. If he can create a lil, stay sober sometimes, and tie his shoe, he'll be a step ahead of CJ.
