Following potential 2013 draftees

If the Jazz do get into the top 3 I think that they should trade out and see if they can pick up something that could be in the lottery next year even if it a 10-14 pick.

I hear ya.. but I wouldn't trade Noel or 'Bazz for a late lottery next year.
 
Have you draft guys already talked about the Greek Freak?

Yes, a 6-10 point guard, a Greek freak of Nigerian heritage who could end up being a first-round draft pick after putting on quite a show ( 33 points, 18 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals )in the Greek national junior tournament attended by Bryan Colangelo of the Toronto Raptors and Masai Ujiri of the Denver Nuggets.

he has a 7-3 wingspan.

Oklahoma City’s Sam Presti and Houston’s Daryl Morey, among others, also have been to Athens to scout Antetokoumpo

He is intriguing.

As a side note, just because someone went to see a player doesn't mean that they are sold on drafting them.
 
OG: Check out the video I just put in my private forum (thread title is "Class").

Also, OT.. check out this pic of Wiggins. Dude is a ridiculous athlete.

Wouldn't mind a draft and stash, and let him develop for two or three years. If he develops we could have a scary lineup

Burks
Hayward
Greek freak
Kanter
Favors

With Hayward Burks and this break dude all being able to handle the ball do we really need a true pg? This would be a matchup nightmare of a lineup for other teams.

Sure, I'm with you on that, but I am interested to hear that the GM's for these teams went to see him not just the teams Euro Scout. I think that says something.

As for the player....he kind of reminds me of the Biyombo story. Biyombo shot up the draft board and is a below average player so far.

I hadn't thought of Biyombo but I have had my own concerns about him being a bust as well.

The draft is always a gamble, and it's a rule that the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Had Biyombo played in college or was much less raw, he would've went 4th or maybe even earlier. Adetokundo (or whatever) would be top-3 in this draft (given his age, size, and perceived skill-set) if he wasn't a project with as many questions as facts surrounding him.

Maybe he never makes it. But if he does, that's a hell of a get, even if you have to wait.
