Following potential 2012 draftees

Not a big fan of Machado. I hope KOC is working the phones to either move up in the second round or get a first round pick.
 
I know that many people wanted to make the playoffs but I just looked at draftexpress. They have Portland getting Sullinger, Marshall and in the second round they have them picking Kevin Murphy (my sleeper pick) and Kyle O'Quinn. No one never knows how players translate to the NBA but I think that is a nice haul for one draft. The Blazers need to get bodies in camp due to their injuries history but I think missing the playoffs for them might turnout ok. Especially if Murphy is as good as advertised.

Cleveland (per DX) They are going to pick Beal, Lamb and Miller. I like each of those players. Seems like a lot of back court players but next to Irving I can't name one of their SG/SF.
 
The Jazz have to figure out what they're doing with Harris and Jefferson. That's a lot of salary on the books. It would be cool to have a pick in this draft, but the Jazz need to move players in trades regardless.

I think saying need is a bit strong. They could just go the FA route (which I don't think is great) and wait for Harris and Jefferson to expire and sign players they actually want in 2013.

I'm fine doing that with Harris, but I don't think I can take another season of Favors coming off the bench. Al has to go.

I think Favors and Al are going to start next year. That was what KOC and Corbin wanted to do this year but Favors wasn't quite ready.

Still, it's about more than just Favors' development--it's about Kanter's, too. I don't see how Kanter can be expected to develop if he's given 13mpg two years in a row.
