Following potential 2012 draftees

What do you guys think about drafting T Jones, and trading Millsap and Al for Rondo and Bass? Would Boston consider this?

Rotation

Rondo Tinsley
Burks draft pick
Hayward Free agent jones
Bass jones
Favors Kanter
Bass jones
 
We should just give Hood a promise to draft him with our pick. How does having two Haywards on the court sound to you?

I just can't see Boston doing it.
 
If the Jazz are going to draft a tweener then my vote goes to Royce White. He might have some personal issues, but he has as much talent of anyone in this draft that doesn't have a uni-brow.

I don't see PJ3 as a 3 at all.

I like that thought. Just not sure Royce is better than either Jones .. but has more 'it.'
 
Royce White > T.Jones for sure. White is such a unique,position-less player while Jones is kind of your classic face-up 4 man.

Wow, you make it sound really bad. If that is what you are going for, then you did a great job.

It is what it is. White is a really unique player that could be really good if a team uses him right. It's just figuring out how to use him that may be hard. I would like it just to get a front row seat to seeing him developed. It may bust, but it would be exciting.

How are his ball handling skills compared to Millsap?

I'd say Jones is the better ball handler. He really, really looked like a SF coming out of high school. In fact, it wasn't till like half way through his sophomore season that he started to seem more PF than SF to me...he just added so much weight in the off season.

Serious question.. If it's so for sure, why is there not a single mock that has White within 5 spots of Jones? (and I don't necessarily disagree, btw)

I love Royce White, very cool player, no way I take him ahead of TJones or PJ3, though. Not enough ceiling to be worth the risk .. the Jones' just have too much size, skill, and upside to pass on .. for a cool player.

Because White is a risk because of his mental conditions along with him being a unique player. Jones and PJ3 are overrated.

Poor take, imo. Respect the differing opinions, though. I think Royce has an 'it' factor. Does a lot of things very well, but the reality is he lacks size and explosiveness. I chuckled a bit when you made the assertion that he's 'position-less' as a positive factor. Not hating, as I said, I love the kid .. and I have been on record as to my concerns with the Jones'.
 
Anyone think there's a chance Marshall falls to us at 13/14? I feel like Portland and NO will both take one of the PG's (Marshall, Lillard) with their second pick. So if we want a PG from the draft, we may have to take one with our first pick (assuming we get it). Thoughts?
