What's new

Following potential 2013 draftees

BYU well have a hard time getting in because of the conference they play in (usally only take 1-2 teams from the WCC). Utah if they can build on the way the played at the end of the season could make a run at it though.
 
Olynyk is affecting almost every play. Ideal high-post big. Can pass, can defend out on the floor, can shoot or drive with big strides, runs the floor, etc. adequate rebounder, good foul shooter.
 
I like McCollum for the Jazz more than Carter-Williams. I don't think there is much MCW can do as a playmaker that McCollum can't do.
 
DraftExpress may have Burke at #10 but that doesn't mean somebody picking at #10 will pick Burke. Guys, there are only 2 teams in the lottery picking before us that don't already have a future/legit PG: Orlando and Dallas (3 teams if you count Detroit, but they already have Knight and also tied up to Stuckey, not to mention they can re-sign Calderon). Moreover, Dallas can re-sign Collison who has been playing pretty solid of late.

- So there's Orlando, Detroit, and Dallas before us.

- Orlando is sitting 2nd at the moment, and I think they'd rather go with Noel, Bazz or McLemore

- Detroit is sitting at #6 - Burke would definitely be a stretch there. They may pick Smart here though if he drops.

- Dallas is sitting at #13, but as Cy keeps reminding us, they need help everywhere, and Collison seems OK for now.

#10, #11, #12 are Philly, OKC and Portland. All of which already have legit PG talent.

In conclusion even though Burke is currently ranked #10, it's likely he'll fall further as teams picking there already have young PG talents.
 
I see the Suns, Hornets, Pistons, Kings, Thunder and Mavs as possible teams that could take a PG before the Jazz pick

Um, please read the top of the page for the 2013 draft on draftexpress. It clearly indicates that ream needs have NOT been taken into account yet.
