Following potential 2015 draftees

Locke did a pretty good breakdown of the market for Kanter. There really isn't much of a market for him. There will be a lot of big guy free agents... he'll be pretty far down the list. He'd be smart to kick the can down the road one year and take the QO. When the new deal kicks in he'll get better offers just because of the rising cap and the amount of teams that will have money.

I could see Milwaukee, Boston, Indiana, or the Lakers going after him... doubt he would be the number one target of any of those teams.
 
Anybody know much about RJ Hunter? Ford has him in the lottery on his draft machine thing. Compares him to Klay Thompson. I would take that.

Locke probably reading our forum again to get ideas for his show.

Dang, D'angelo Russell is 6'5" and only 176 lbs.

I think that weight is outdated. He looks bigger than that now. Regardless, he's 19 - he'll fill out. He already uses his size well, can post up smaller guards, etc.

Best player in the draft.

Agreed. He's like a 6'5" Damian Lillard.

I asked him in person once if he reads Jazzfanz and he acted like he didn't even know what it was. I didn't really believe him, though. Everyone knows bout dat Jazzfanz.
 
This Looney guy might be better than we think. He's long, he's really mobile and he has good passing and scoring instincts.

I know this is high school, but you get the idea...

If not Russell I would be really happy with either Johnson or Super Mario. I hope they don't get hyped that much, we could really use one of them.

About Hezonja:
The thing I liked in that Madrid game was that he wasn't a spot up shooter only. He surprisingly(maybe just for me) had a real nice off the ball game. Ran a nice curl where he used a floater even though he could go all the way and he used some off screens really well on one position he almost looked like Curry(not to compare them or anything). His shot is smooth even his misses looked good. A little playmaking. Always a good thing to be able to run a PnR in the NBA.
You could as well see the potential on D but I wasn't thrilled w/ his stance and how he defended in the corner. Can't loose the ball. A simple 1-5 PnR, a back door cut from the wing, that's an easy layup and there is no chance for weakside help.
You could definitly see that he cares. Was talking to his teammates and showed some emotions. I could see him work w/ Gordon just fine especially w/ the international revolution that is going on in SLC.

Have not watched him much but he seems to be an undersized skinny PF. If he could develop into a SF I think he would be good but he seems a little to slow of a shooter and not good enough handle and I am not sure that will change.

How many Skinny PF have converted to SF... They all end up like Jeff green, Marvin Williams, and Thad Young.

All I keep hearing is Looney can do so much more and that the coach is limiting him... If he can do so much more and it helps the team win why would the coach limit him? That team isn't very good either so I'm not so sure why his coach wouldn't just set him loose. I don't think he'd be a guy I'd want on the jazz.
