Following potential 2013 draftees

C.J. McCollum seems like the most realistic and good choice for the Jazz. If somehow he is gone by the Jazz first pick, then I have to think they will have to look at Nate Wolters with the second pick.

Adetokunbo isn't like Biyombo. Adetokunbo has ready sklls. Biyombo was basically just a shotblocker.

From what I see on his highlights, he's not ready for the NBA. He looks like he's trying to be Durant, but doesn't have the shooting or the explosion, maybe in time but if he comes over to soon NBA will destroy him.

He can stay in Europe for a year or two, it's not like we need to be good next year.

Exactly. Which is why he is perfect. The contract he signed for his future Euroleague team allows him to opt out at the end of each season to join his NBA team. No buyout or anything. Keep him in Europe for 2 years, then bring him over.
 
Saric isn't ready either. He is getting owned in the Adriatic League, which is a mid-level European league.

Good point, but at his age, one or two years won't cut it, I'm thinking four years three at the least. However my assumptions are just that, what the hell do I know.

Next years draft is going to be much better than this draft, especially the top-five. Shabazz Muhammad is going to be the number one pick next year unless Nerlens Noel does some spectacular things like Anthony Davis did. Muhammad plays exactly like James Harden and we all know Harden would be starting for every NBA team exept the few with all-star shooting guard i.e. Kobe, Wade, etc. Cody Zeller and James McAdoo are the other top players and that leaves only more spot in the top-five for a surprise someone else next year like Andre Roberson who was Burks teammate at Colorado, he is a great small forward or Alex Poythress who is going to Kentucky and is a combo forward.

This draft class is a little weak on point guards, Marshall, Lillard, and Teague were the only good ones in this draft. 2013 will be full of point guards in the first round 5-7 I am predicting. On the Jazz's standpoint it is in our best interests is the Golden State pick next year instead of this year so this could be a blessing disguise. The draft class for point guards next year includes guys like. CJ McCollum, BJ Young, Lorenzo Brown, Ryan Harrow, Myck Kabongo, Isaiah Caanan, Ian Miller, and Deonte Burton who if all these guys have a good year they could all potentially be taken in the first round. It is also a great small forward class as well with guys I mentioned earlier, James McAdoo, Andre Roberson and even Adonis Thomas, there were repots that the Jazz wanted a small forward this year so we could get a look at those guys as well.

CJ McCollum is one guy that I would really like to see the Jazz take a hard look at next year. Granted he plays for Lehigh, but not to mention they upset Duke this year as a No. 15 seed. Has great size at 6'3 but needs to gain some weight he is only 180 lbs. McCollum decided to stay for his senior year which we don't see very often. Projected to go in the mid-teens in next years draft right now so with a good year he could be going in the late-lottery. The Warriors could have a good team next year like I said if they are healthy and we will get a pick in the 12-22 area right where McCollum is projected. We also have our first-round pick next year, but I think we are going to be pretty good so I think the Jazz are looking at two picks in the mid-teens to early-twenties next year. Unless the Warriors play bad like they usually do even with all of their talent in the starting-five and the Jazz could have a bad year, but it is doubtful honestly. McCollum was the best guard on the floor when they played Duke and he racked up 25 points and 6 assists in that game.
________________________________________________________________________
Mo Williams is our point guard for the next year or two, but it would be a great idea to grab a point guard in the 2013 draft and let him grow and learn behind Williams. The Jazz could also get a shooting guard or a small forward, even though we have Burks and Hayward just in case as a back-up or if they turn out better. I say they go with a point guard because we can always get a extra shooting guard or a small forward with the MLE this year and next year. If we potentially get rid of Big Al or Millsap it would not be a bad idea to get a extra big. If we get a top-5 pick in next years draft I say we target McAdoo for sure or if we get lucky the no brainer would be Muhammed or Noel. A sleeper is Cody Zeller better than his older brother, but he does have t-rex arms, but the potential is definitely there.

I can't wait I think this college season is going to be a great one, next years draft is oozing with talent at almost every position, but like I said 2013 has more depth and talent at the point guard position than 2012.

This was my first ever post in this thread. I added dividers to it because when I first posted it, it was way too much for one paragraph. To my defense, I thought Burke was going to declare, and though MCW was a tweener and wasn't sold that he was a point guard. Ian Miller, Deonte Burton, and especially Ryan Harrow were extremely disappointing this year in college hoops, all in all I think it was a decent first post. I was so so so wrong about McAdoo, but I was right on about McCollum. I think it is safe to say I was one the first people to say I wanted McCollum considering this post was on page 18 and we are now on page 658.

Yes Yes Yes!!

I can no longer hold my excitement of being in the lotto this year. If we got into the playoffs playing well I might be OK with it. But the way we've been playing, being in the lotto is the better outcome.
