Following potential 2015 draftees

That time we picked just before the Pacers we got Hayward and they got Paul George.


May be we can do the same thing to them this time around... lol
 
White Chocolate's 2015 NBA Draft Big Board

11. Kelly Oubre

Oubre has the potential to be a pretty good 3 and D player. He is a good rebounder for his size and has shown the ability to shoot the ball. He shot 36% from three on almost 100 attempts and averaged over a steal a game in 21 minutes. Has good size to be a small forward, is pretty athletic, and is a good defender as well.

12. Trey Lyles

At 6'10, Lyles has legit size to be a power forward in the league. He averaged 8.7 PPG and 5.2 RPG in 23 minutes a game on a loaded Kentucky team. Only 19 years old, he has a lot of potential. He made four threes this year so the potential is there, he does have a nice mid-range shot, and he shot 74% from the free-throw line.

13. Bobby Portis

The SEC player of the year, very impressive, but most of Kentucky's players played around 22-23 minutes a game where as Portis played 30. Never the less he is 6'11, averaged 17.5 PPG and 8.9 RPG and did go 14-30 from three. He also shot 74% from the line, averaged 1.4 BPG, and was 1st in the SEC in offensive rebounds.

14. Myles Turner

In only 22.2 minutes a game, Turner averaged 2.6 BPG, good enough to lead the Big 12. He also lead the Big 12 in defensive rating with a 86.3 rating. Shot 84% from the free-throw line and also made 17 threes this year. Has legit size to be a center at 6'11-7'0, has a nice touch on his jumper, is a good defender, and the potential is there.

15. Kris Dunn

With the combine and workouts, Dunn will rise up draft boards. Behind Russell and Mudiay he is the next best point guard available. He was 3rd in the nation in assists with 7.5 per game and averaged 2.7 steals a game on top of all of that he scored 15.6 PPG. Turnovers are a problem, but he is athletic, can score the ball, and can improve on them.

16. Kevon Looney

Looney played a lot as a freshman with just under 31 minutes a game, he is 6'9, but he also is really thin. He did average 11.6 PPG and 9.2 RPG, also shot 22-53 from three good enough for 42%. He has a lot of potential because he has shown the ability to shoot the ball at his size and he does a little bit of everything.

17. Jakob Poeltl

Poeltl's stock soared because of the tournament, but he is a legit 7'0 and has nice touch around the rim. He shot 68% from the field and grabbed almost 7 rebounds a game in a little over 23 minutes. He did shoot 44% from the free-throw line, but he rebounds and finishes around the basket with a high percentage.

18. Devin Booker

Booker might be the best shooter in the entire draft. He shot 41% from three with over 140 attempts and averaged 10 points a game in a little over 21 minutes a game. He has good for a shooting guard at 6'6, we know he is a pure shooter, but can he do more than that is the question and we will find out.

19. Sam Dekker

Along with Poeltl, Dekker helped his stock mightily in the tournament. He is a streaky shooter and does a little bit of everything. More of a polished player, but he is a junior and needs to work on his ball-handling. He is a guy who can come in right away and give quality minutes, but his potential is not nearly as high as these other players.

20. Tyus Jones

Is he just another Burke or Napier? He also benefited from a nice tournament, but he did average 11.8 PPG and 5.6 APG with almost two steals a game in 34 minutes. At 6'1 he isn't the ideal size for a point guard, but he can score the ball and distribute it as well. A team in the mid-teens could fall in love with him.

I had the hardest time deciding where to put Looney and Poeltl because I have seen both in the 10-14 range. My big board will change in the coming weeks, but if we don't move up these are the players we will most likely be looking at. There is always the possibility of someone in the top-10 falling of course. A lot of these guys are interchangeable, there are some players with a lot of potential and some players who can come in and contribute right away.

The truth is....
Dekker can be a No.11 or No.12pick
And why not Frank Kaminsky？
I think it's a good choose us
if Tomic don't want join the Jazz

With Larry Bird picking, that's a good possibility, a fellow skilled big man who can shoot 3's.


I think Larry will see a lot of himself in Kaminsky.

I guarantee you that there is zero overlap between what you think about and what Larry thinks about.
 
Will the Jazz really draft another PG though?

Some of this depends on what happens with Tomic & Pleiss.
 
This thread is gonna suck hard between now and June. Hottttrasssh is gonna start channelling his inner GM, teleport himself into the souls of other GMs, then return to jazzfanz to report his findings. PKMom is gonna text his kids out there, make sure we all know that he knows their secrets, then tell us secrets will be revealed on Saturday. That guy really has the scoop, so bring your shovel. A-Train played high school basketball so he has unimpeachable access to the heart of the game. Beware. Spycam will make sense... why is he avalanched in ****? A throng of alts will run through here selling the dumbest distractions. Stitches will tl;dr. Vermin will probably try to come in here and clean up, but quickly realize there's no point.

Have a nice summer braughs.
