I hate the feeling that Burke is not going to be there for use

A good three or four seasons on the bench in utah, then he will be ready for use.
I think the bigger concern is, "will we be there for him?"

I dig it. It's got passion to it.
If Willie Cauley-Stein were available with our 2nd pick, I'd be ecstatic. No way he's not better than Jason Thompson, given his quickness.

WCS wouldn't even be there for our first pick if he declared.
If that's the case, then I'd hope for a Burke +Adetokunbo/Saric draft.
Cauley-Stein's draft projection ranges from 10 - 21. Quite a range.

I agree, 100%! OKC would draft WCS at #10 if he declared in my opinion.

Adetokunbo is oozing with potential and could be a guy to stash in Europe for a year or two.
Because he's one of the most interesting and promising talents in the draft if he's in.

Giannis Adetokunbo currently is in the first-round (28th) on DraftExpress 2013 Mock Draft and it was updated this morning.
Check out this footage for a 17 or 18 year-old international player. He's basically like a high school senior.

Other than the fact he has no ball handling ability and can't shoot.
He can shoot. He just can't create his own shot. Plus, to be a manimal you just have to be fierce and have a relentless motor like Faried.
His 3pt% are flukey.
You don't know that.
But sure, 46% from 3 and 76% from the line is definitely a brick layer. Those shots have been going in by dumb luck.
Not dumb luck, just extremely selective shot selection. If you watch his games, he misses most of his 3pt that are even slightly contested. He has only made 2 three pointers in 3 games all season. He has never made 3 or more in single game.
I understand that he isn't a guy who bases his game off shooting, or ever will, but I just see him as overrated by most right now. He is no where near McLemore, Porter, Smart, or Shabazz's level.
Stupid question, I know: but does anyone else think it looks like he's palming the ball almost every time he dribbles -- even more than most others who constantly get away with it?
