Following potential 2012 draftees

Another cool thing said by K-G yesterday. There were some shirts made that said MKG MVP. When asked by some reporters what it was like to be getting all the love, he said the love is great from the UK fans, then he was specifically asked about being called this team's MVP.
He said, "I don't think about anything like that, I don't like all the talk about who the leading scorer is, rebounder, all that ... I wish we could go back to the simpler days when there were only two titles handed out, winner and loser. I just wanna be the winner."

Mike moser finally cracked the list on DX. After not being noticed and never being mentioned they are saying 22nd in the 1st round. With a weak schedule the rest of the way, I think he really starts raising his stock.
Good for him. Kid deserves it.

May as well concentrate on the top 5. Jazz will be lucky to win 10 games this season.
... and I think it's fair to just plan to draft straight up BPA.
This is kind of a sudden reaction, but I think now it is even more clear we need Barnes or Miller. Gilchrist is cute and stuff with his can do attitude, and high effort defense, but we need some offense.
K-G = "Cute can-do attitude" (juvenile take, by the way)
Miller = Mentally soft, plays one game and takes off the next ..
Barnes = Pretty one-dimensional
At this point, I'd take Barnes, K-G, Miller .. order.

Actually, tonight showed me that we need defense almost more than offense. Which one of our wings played good defense? None. We need more defense and a better attitude. K-G fills both needs.
Our defense was actually really good. The only problem was that our offense was so atrocious, it led to offensive oppurtunites for the Lakers because we never made shots to get our defense set-up. Can you really expect a young Jazz team to put down the defensive clamps for an entire game? I was impressed we did it for a half when our offense wasn't giving their defense any support.

Word. I'm counting on this game to restore me from my basketball depression.
Last night was the emotional high of seeing Drew Brees break the record in person and destroy my most hated team (The Falcons) then partying in the French Quarter. Today was the emotional low of fooling myself we would actually come out prepared and at least make it a game. Hopfully tomorrow my Bulldogs pull out the upset and the Jazz beat the Thuggets.

I like what I see on nbadraft.net right now. They have us picking MKG, but at 12. It looks like our own pick could be higher than the GS pick, however. Hopefully, last night was not a glimpse into what is yet to come.

I may have already said this, but my ideal draft would be Drummond and MKG.

Barnes is a spot up shooter who benefits greatly from having the best PG in college bball right now. Yes, he is a great shooter, but he still can't create his own shot. I would take K-G over him every single time.
