Following potential 2013 draftees

[The Midnight]

Another topic I brought up once was the idea of trading Kanter for Andrew Harrison.

Hmmm..

Seeing the game tonight, I mean we DOMINATED with Favors & Kanter. And that's how the Jazz FO likes the team to play. Inside Out.

I'd probably get neg'd by PKM for this, but if we have studs like Favors & Kanter dominating down low, and we're always gonna dump the ball down to them each possession - is it necessary to have Harrison? Of course he'd be good to have, but I'd rather have:

Favors, Kanter, Burke > Favors & Harrison

moot point. jazz are going to tank next year and draft Harrison then it will be Harrison, Burke, Hayward, favors, kanter with McCullum, foye, poythress and splitter off the bench.

This is what I posted before we drafted Kanter:

Again - my main argument is you don't pass on a guy just because he's not there (yet) defensively. We already have Favors for that.

Look at the Finals - game 4 - Dallas had Chandler - but it was Nowitzki who put his team on his back flu and all and hit the game winning shot.

That's the kind of player we're looking at here, a big who's skilled enough to put the ball on the floor, shoot it, draw fouls.

And as for drafting Knight - over the past 10 years - how many PG do you see dominating the final? This year's cast: Wade's a SG, LeBron - SF, Bosh - PF, Nowitzki - PF, Terry - SG. I haven't seen a true PG dominating in the Finals since - let's see - 2004 with Billups.

And for those thinking Kanter didn't go HARD in High School - have a look at the video below and compared it to Givony's "I won't show the whole game, but instead only edit in bits that support my argument" video:

Sure. The idea of having two dominant big men is too difficult to match up with. Especially in today's NBA.

I'd buy season tickets to go see that team for the next 10 years.

You mean Burks...or?

Maybe this makes me petty, stupid, and/or crazy, but I think I've seen enough of Shabazz with that woeful lowlight of his sulking off the court after a teammate nailed a game-winner. Premature as hell for me to call it, but the kid may be busted. He has a long way to go upstairs.

this is what I am thinking.

nickkk do you not see Shabazz or Andrew Harrison as players who can put the team on their backs?

I'd take a less talented team-first guy who wants to improve (i.e., Hayward), over a me-first guy like Shabazz any day of the week.

you guys are totally wacked, how is kanter gonna take over, while we tank?.... such loosely-connected logic.

tank for andrew harrison. thats a top 2 player. our draft pick will be in the 20's, delusional..

There's always Kasey Hill....

what eludes me is direct responses to my logic. wheres that?

Bro.. there are so many moving parts though.. how do you know he's a lock at #2? How do you know there won't be other PG prospects?

How about if we lucked out in the lottery and landed top 3?

 

[NUMBERICA]

your going to single out 1 high tension moment for a 19 y/o and base your prediction moving forward on it. that's naive

I don't see why he'd turn the corner, though. He's obviously had turds in his ear for most of his life and it's worked or he just is a turd. Beyond that, what's going to make him learn, the millions of dollars that are going to come flying at him in less than a year regardless of his performance? And if he's even a productive junk-baller that gets his next contract?

If he turns the corner, I don't see how anything less than a Gerald Green experience gets him there. But of course I'm speculating. We'll see.

not to mention next year is loaded. Harrison will be on a loaded team. other players will be the stars on their teams rosters, injuries will play a part. who knows what next year is going to look like.
