I like Gordon.
I'm beginning to warm up to the prospect of Vonleh. He's a talent, that's for sure. And he would add some nice length and offensive potential to our team.
I really have no clue who we actually want.

Who are "we"? The Jazz? It's pretty clear who they want - they want the 5th best player in the draft (unless they can trade up).

Thanks captain obvious
Can I play this game too? You know, I think the Jazz might draft some players in 8 days or trade the picks. Either way, we're going to do something this month...
Ironically it was you who made the original 'obvious' statement.
Shut up. Penicillin is ur friend.

That is the question...
Assuming that all of the tier 2 players we have discussed have the potential to become an all-star (Gordon, Randall, Vonleh, Smart, Exum).
Assuming that we don't pull off a trade up or down.
Assuming that any of the players will impact at least one of our current young core.
Which of these 5 is the best player available?

I have quite a bit of anticipation for this years draft. With KOC it was kind of depressing knowing that it was a wait and see who fell into the slot. It was too predictable.
Dennis Lindsey was like a magician last year. Improving his draft position and getting the players he targeted without giving up very much. Makes me wonder what he is capable of this year. Makes me worry that he set a high expectation last year that may not be repeatable this year.
Because of the Lindsey factor I think I am going to skip the ESA draft party this year and watch at home with the Jazz radio guys on and the computer at hand.

Vonleh is heading to Philadelphia to work out for the 76er's. Interesting!
Could they be considering trading back? Doesn't make sense otherwise...unless they think they can also move up from #10 by trading Thaddeus Young.

I do think he's worth #3 pick.

Just listened to Chad Ford with Locke, Ford said Vonleh is the only other guy he would put in "Tier 1".

The question is who is the 5th best player?
Usually, by this time, we have some idea. Usually we know who the jazz are really interested in. Right now I can see them making a number of different choices.
I suggest going with the prospect who has the biggest hands
