It says it's based on Chad Ford's assessments. Not sure if it's what you want though.
Although Perry Jones isn't showing a lot in the tourney, it seems like he is the prototype small forward we've been clamoring for, with unbelievable athleticism. Would you guys be upset if drafted this guy? We'd have a huge, athletic front line.
Yeah, I would assume his Insider thing is a bit different considering it's limited to only Insider subscribers.
I haven't really seen anything out of Jones that I would call him "unbelievable" athlete. He is athletic considering his height and length, but not enough to be a SF.

I do like PJII so I haven't given up considering him if he falls to the Jazz.
I'd probably grab him before a PG and then grab whichever PG falls to the 2nd lottery pick - either Lillard or Marshall.
Yep. Just like the other Jones.

I dont watch enough college ball to have seen many guys play often so most of my opinions have been formed by what guys in this thread have said (pkm, cyrone torbin, orangello, hantlers, etc) and highlight videos.
I have always wanted MKG the most followed by barnes and quincy miller.
Now that the tournament is going i have got to see some guys play and i still want MKG the most but I dont like Miller at all so far, and i once was totally against getting kendall marshall, but watching him play is amazing. He seems to make the right play almost all the time, such a good leader and I would love to have him on the jazz.
I also like lillard from the highlights i have seen, but i am unsure if he would be able to defend anyone.

I've watched Baylor a handful of times this year. I've been impressed with PJIII's talent, in spite of his docile demeanor. But I've tuned into their games mainly to get a look at Quincy Miller, because of his being a true SF (whereas PJIII may only be a PF). But every time I watch Miller seems invisible. Actually, Acy takes a lot of Miller's minutes (Acy seems to play with more intensity than Miller - but he's not projected in the draft nearly has high as Miller).
But I also notice their backcourt, Jackson and Walton - and I don't like them. They remind of guys I've played with that never pass the ball. And yet I notice PJIII so they must pass the ball at some point. I dunno. Is Miller's problem his teammates, is it his coach, or is it him? Because PJIII and Miller seem similar to me, yet PJIII is the one that appears more impressive.
Anyone care to educate me on this?

Marshall is ridiculous. The way he was scoring in that Creighton game was drool inducing, to be sure. So sad to see him go down with the wrist injury.

Marshall has impressed me as well. He's not a great shooter, but he can certainly score the ball at times. Great passer and seems like a great teammate. I hope we get one pick and it's around 8-10. Would love to add Marshall or Lillard and not add two rookies. I almost feel like we risk becoming TOO young adding 2 18 year olds or 19 year olds.

Not much to educate you hit the nail on the head. Also about miller if you watched him later in the year it is tough to gage him because scouts are saying that the acl injury is still bothering him. That might be the cause of his decline. he is not use to playing so much basketball. I hope he comes out and we take a flier on him.
A lillard miller draft would be amazing.

Miller, Hayward (6th man extraordinaire)

Mmmmmm that looks good
It's looking like we may not even get a pick. 281 pages of speculation over nothing

A little second round talk anyone
Dont forget we could still try to trade into the draft. Jefferson in particular may be used.

It's a good thought, but easier said then done. Maybe Houston would trade their pick for Al? McHale definitely likes him.

That would be my primary target if I am the Jazz. Houston has two picks this year and both look to be top 25.
