Following potential 2015 draftees

Stanley Johnson now #9 on DX. Wow that is a HUGE drop from #5 just a couple of weeks ago?


Imagine having him in our lineup.... can anyone score over these guys? They will consistently hold teams to under 80 points on any given night.

I think the most interesting storyline is going to be: How much does Atlanta value assets towards the end of the season, and how strong are Brooklyn, Charlotte, Indiana and Boston going for the #8 seed.
Atlanta has an incentive to make Brooklyn lose as much as possible due to the Joe Johnson pick swap rights and there's still 2 matches between the teams.
Other than that ATL plays against CHarlotte and Indiana once each(possible nights where starters are rested)
Atlanta can't really catch Warriors for overall homecourt (5 losses behind), clinched their conference, but are only 5 losses in front of Houston with 9 matches to go.

Nope. Average Jazz game score - 28 to 16. But Jazz win Chip!
 
Poeltl playing his way into the top 10? Interesting. Basically everyone I want on the Jazz is moving up and everyone I don't want is moving down. Not good.
 
Does not look like anybody mentioned it with the NCAA tournament going on, but Hezonja played Porzingis over the weekend. Sure plenty of scouts were there. Looks like Hezonja is still in the doghouse and barely played. Porzingis got good burn and had a nice game against one of the best teams in the world outside of the NBA. Still believe Porzingis will go top 6. We are just forgetting about him with the tournament going on.
 
Here's the Barcelona vs Sevilla game from this weekend:

mkg was a great team mate that made players better just being on the team. he creates team unity.

like at UK he got an early morning shoot around organized.

And Winslow isn't a great teammate? He doesn't make people around him better? Look at how much he helps Okafor defensively in the post. He's all over the court on defense.

****, listen to what his U-18 coaches have to say about him! He's always been viewed as the glue guy who does what the team needs him to do to win. He's closer to Kawhi Leonard than MKG, IMO!

I must say that i do not like Duke but have been impressed with Winslow lately. I would take him over Johnson and Oubre in a second.

dude I am not saying Winslow is bad. I like him I am just saying don't dismiss mkg so badly because he can't shoot.

I love Hayward but he is not a leader. he doesn't pull the team together.

From what I've heard about Winslow, he's being described the exact same way - his teammates love him and love playing with him, he does all the dirty work on that Duke team, he fills the stat sheet and is unselfish and somewhat of a gym rat, too.

His name is Justise... Guys with that kind of first name have to be high character.

People are comparing him to Kwahi and Iggy... Pretty spot on honestly. MKG has a motor that runs stupid hot, but he is always going to have issues on offense.

That's what I'm tryin to say man! At least you get it!
 
The following quote I think applies due to Kaminsky and Dekker being potential draftees of the Jazz. This is from a NCAA coach.

"Wisconsin wins. Kentucky hasn't played anyone like them. They are so much more athletic than Kentucky will think they are. They will go one-on-one and score, and Kentucky will be surprised. They are very comfortable in a game in the 50s or 70s. They will score inside and out at a higher percentage than other teams have against them this year."

I wonder why he thinks this? :)
 
Watched first 8 min. of this Barca game, Porzingis looking like a legit top #10 pick. He's shooting it. He's blocked a shot. He's getting alley hoop dunk, he's driving & drawing foul, also scoring one on one on the low post.


Would be interested to see what the Jazz thinks about Porzingis vs Kaminsky.
