2011 draft.....

I believe Thornton is a restricted free agent so he cannot be traded until the lockout is over.

Hopefully the ping pongs fall our way this time.

Vessely, Perry Jones or Terrance Jones at 6? For some reason I think these will be the options if the Jazz end up at 6. I'd take Perry Jones because he has the highest potential in the draft and can turn into a star. A 6-11 SF is unreal. The Jazz will have another lottery pick and I say go for it all with this pick

Between Perry Jones, Terrence Jones and Jan Vesely, I think the Jazz go with Vesely at #6.

Like I said, it's between Vesely and Jimmer at #6.

Jan Vesely is a 6'11" SF. Tough aggressive player who scores inside and outside. Really hustles. He's on the slim side at about 225, but he's not soft at all.

Perry Jones is a 6'11" SF too, but he scares me. Lackadaisical. Anthony Randolph clone.

Terrence Jones. Don't think the Jazz would have any interest in him. His questionable character wouldn't fit here.
 
I like Vesely at 6, if Barnes and Kanter are gone.
I'm not necessarily pro-Kanter - his knees cause me concern too. But I definitely am ravenous for more information on the guy before discarding him from my draft board. I mean, in that nike summit game against jared Sullinger Kanter notched 34 points, 12 rebounds in 24 minutes.

Kanter is worth a look. He's only 18 and 6'10". What if he's still growing?

Blake Griffin blew out a knee too. Look at him now. The younger the player, the greater chance of a full recovery.

If the Jazz are convinced they can get Ante Tomic over here to play C, they'll probably look at SF at #6. Jan Vesely or Perry Jones.

Tomic playing C in the NBA? You want to see if Archie Moses can be had for the rookie minimum to play small forward too?
 
Man what I wouldn't give to have the lottery balls for the 12th pick get chosen in the top 3 and have a top 3 and then 7 or 8 talk about rebuilding. Have our own fab 5 coming off the bench. Nab barnes or Williams then fredette and bring over tomic. Fredette, Hayward, barnes or Williams, favors and tomic. Mmmmmmmmmm me likes
 
If the Jazz don't draft a wing with their first lotto pick I would love if they got Kawai Leonard, he may not be a AS but I could see him being a defensive wing that can knock down a J, like Brewer but with a good stroke.
Maybe best case scenario would be Marion or Gerald Wallace type or maybe again lower side Afflalo or Brewer type.

The problem will have all these young players is when they finally figure it out they will want MAX contracts. So the Jazz would essentially become a farm system for all the other teams.
 
Leonard at 6? Yikes.

And I still don't understand the love for Vesely at 6 (or 12). Dude can't guard on the perimeter in Europe, has a suspect J and no post game. What the hell is he going to be able to do in the NBA?

I meant Leonard with the 2nd Lotto pick (11-12'ish)

Sure Ante Tomic can play C in the NBA. He's 7'2" 240 lbs. and a skilled low post scorer. I see a lot of Roy Hibbert in him with a touch of Pau Gasol.

I see a lot more of Fess than Hibbert.

A soft stiff euro who can't even dominate fellow euros.
 
Somehow Rasheed Wallace found Benjamin Button, became young again, only to shorten himself by a few inches.
