I wouldn't let Biyombo slip past us if we drafted Kanter. But I would lose my mind if we drafted Singleton over Biyombo.
There is a lot of incentive to show up in shape and ready to go. The third pick gets something like $11 million. The question is, who is he really? The high school video is a little bit scary. He looked like a big slow kid with poor defensive fudamentals and effort. He also didn't look very explosive. I know he's a great offensive talent, but if you're the jazz, don't you have to be a little bit worried about Kanter's defense?

If we draft Vessely at 3, I will give up my fan card. The dude cant shoot free throws, can't rebound, is weak. I do like that he improved his 3% and that he dunks everything. He just screams AK to me and I don't want another AK on this team
Not an advocate of drafting him at 3, but he is a SF not a PF so part of the reason his rebound numbers arent to high. True his 3pt numbers not to great and his FT% is crazily low, but certainly think he can improve on that. Also wouldnt it be kool to have the slam dunk champion on the Jazz.
Here is the boxscore. Very good except the FT shooting. Got to be mostly mental for him. Should be fixable.

You can't take the bean out of the pole.
If he for some reason falls to 12 would you snatch him up? To much talent not to for me.
Holy crap.
If Biyombo's there at 12, you crap your pants, draft him, then figure out the mess later.

No you don't. If Memo's back, they fight it out for the 4th and 5th spots. If Memo's out, they're the backups. Regardless, Memo is gone next year. But we're going to have a 5th big this year and I could care less if it's one of them.
Edit: Totally forgot Favors. I'd still draft Biyombo, though. Rather sit Memo if needs be and have those two guys fighting for time next year along with the insurance at the 4/5. We could just forget about the whole frontline for a while.
If we get both Kanter and Biyombo we definitely don't have to make a trade. They are both very young bigs who need time to develop. Neither of them are ready for extended minutes in the NBA imo.

Yeah, I just amended my post. Forgot Favors.
Dont read Ford's tweets today then.
If Vesely could develop a JS he could potentially be a monster.
Having such a low FT% means his mechanics are seriously f***** up or he has the concentration of an 8 year old.

chadfordinsider:
Informal GM poll: Who's the best int'l player in the draft? Vesley 5 votes; Kanter 4 votes; Valanciunas 3 votes. All said it's very close
I'm down.

Vesely vs. Durant would be entertaining as far as watching two huge lanky guys guard each other.
