OK Jazzfanz... time for a new big board. Post yours, too... Lets make it 12 deep since it looks like it's possible we finish at the 12 spot...

Here's mine:
1. Okafor
2. Russell
3. Towns
4. Mudiay
5. Johnson
6. Hezonja
7. Winslow
8. Porzingis
9. Looney
10. Oubre
11. Booker
12. WCS(he's so low only because we already have Gobert, who has a similar skillset)

The first 4 is very muddy for me and by draftday it's very possible it's going to change. Same goes for last 3.

OK here's mine for the Jazz:

1. Russell
2. Okafor
3. Towns
4. Mudiay
5. Hezonja (we need another offensive weapon)
6. Winslow (character & fit)
7. Johnson (if he falls this low, grab him)
8. WCS
9. Porzingis
10. Looney
11. Turner
12. Booker/Oubre

(I'd be happy with 1-10, but really pissed if we got to 11-12, just not sold on the Turner/Oubre/Booker trio).

I actually have come to like a lot of those prospects and I don't think I'd be too disappointed with drafting any of them. Our coaching staff has done great developing our young players so far, so I trust them that they can work with talent and make them improve...
 
1 Russell
2 Towns
3 Mudiay
4 Okafor
5 Johnson
6 hezonja
7 porsingis
8 WCS
9 booker
10 Oubre
11 Winslow
12 kaminsky if we don't bring tomic
13 looney

Of course, I'm just not really going to be too stoked about any of those 3 as each of them seem to have a big question mark (unlike the top #10).

Turner - commentators have voiced concerns about how he runs & his long term physicality?

Oubre - not sure about his character

Booker - don't see a lot of upside (yet)

Porz is featured this week on DX.

The range of emotions the DX scouting reports give you.

1st half: **** yeah, get this guy he is a beast

2nd half: Jesus Christ this guy is a weenie who sucks at basketball.


After watching Mirotic dominate the last week I really want to like Porz. Offensively this dude seems like a potential monster, but his weaknesses make him seem like a weak version of Kanter.

Defensively seems like we might get there, what we need more now is some more offensive weapons. If one of Favors or Gobert is going to be on the floor at any 1 time, and Porzingis is coming off the bench as the 3rd big, then I'm fine with him.


If you want to build a wall then take WCS (and he's a safer pick too), but if you want a bit more flexibility in your roster then Porzingis does give you that.
 
1. Russell
2. Towns
3. Okafor
4. Mudiay
5. Johnson
6. Winslow
7. Kaminsky
8. Booker
9. WCS
10. Grant
11. Anderson
12. Looney
13. Oubre

Don't know enough about the Euros to rank them.
 
Not a fan of Hunter. Putting up really bad stats in a sub-par conference. He is super skinny and is just an average athlete. Doesn't do anything better than Hood IMO and doesn't have much potential.

nm, his shooting percentages are ghastly. Maybe he can be good in a situational role.

I haven't watched him extensively, but from what I've heard, his shot % are misleading. I've heard he's a natural shooter and when I look at it - his shot is beautiful, but his % are low probably because of the role on the team and because he's asked to create more than he's currently capable of(kind of like Hayward's last year). With all that said, I haven't watched enough to give an opinion about his overall prospects and potential.

i like the fact that Stan is already trying to take over games and be the man as a true freshamn. He's got a killer instinct and is an all around bad ***.

Yeah, but it's a two-edged sword. Sometimes I think it results in him getting tunnel vision.

I'm not super worried about it (especially under Quin), but the FO will definitely need to evaluate whether his alpha dog mentality will result in him being able to take over games when needed, or if it'll just make him a selfish player. I personally think he has the passing skills to fit our system, and Snyder would be able to bring out those abilities and keep his shot selection in check.

Whoever we draft, we can feel safer knowing that we have a great development coach.
 
Going to leave the Euros out of mine as well, I'd expect them to be mid-late lottery picks though.

Not taking fit with Jazz into consideration this time:

1. Towns
2. Mudiay
3. Okafor
4. Russell
5. Johnson
6. Oubre
7. Kaminsky
8. Winslow
9. WCS
10. Turner
11. Booker
12. Looney
 
For the Jazz...

1 - Towns
2 - Okafor
3 - Russell
4 - Mudiay
5 - Hezonja
6 - Porzingis
7 - Oubre
8 - Winslow
9 - WCS
10 - Looney
11 - Johnson
12 - Booker

When I look at him I think ... I could probably take him off the dribble. I'm with you don't get him at all.
 
I see Oubre as the highest risk reward of this years wing crop. He could have these attitude things you hear about, but I think talent wise he's the best of the bunch. I trust the front office to screen him well, and if he comes across as a solid guy I think he'd be great for us.

I agree with you. Reminds me of CJ Miles in that way.
