Will people please stop suggesting trading Burks for lesser players? Not only that, but people want to throw in picks.???? Huh?


Newflash... Burks is good and has a chance to be really good.

The Jazz have just held him back.

Yeah, just like Jimmer in Sacramento.





sorry, I had to.
 
I'm with Hack - on both the Burks love and the Withey love. Although I wanna know more about Steven Adams. He's only 19 so not as polished as Withey but could his ceiling be higher? High enough to compensate for spending a couple years developing him? ...might be better to go with Withey. I dunno.

I don't see any reason to take on a project big. We either need to sign a solid backup vet, or draft an upperclassmen who is ready to contribute.
 
Wolters seems like a guy the Jazz would have been stoked to grab with a late 1st rounder during the Stockton or Dwill eras to be a backup. As a starter, I'm just not sold.
 
Ok - here's the new Schroeder's interview & practice footage:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=895hxrNZH4I

I like how he said he:

- first and foremost likes to play defense
- wants to be a leader
- likes giving out assists
- speaks English with his teammates (less adjustment to Jazz)

I really can't see him as a chucker (some people have compared him to Jennings?)

I also like how he said he's very close to his family. That's important to me. He loves his family, very likely he'll also love his teammates.

Also like how he said he plays soccer (Steve Nash?).

One of my close friends has played soccer with Steve Nash, it was during the NBA lockout. I have a video on it on facebook.

Also if we don't draft this guy at 14 I will be disapointed

Looks about right. Maybe as much as anyone, though, his draft position will depend on the result of NBA/team workouts.

Steven Adams will need another year or two. But will be a good player in the league. I'm ok with a project big in this draft. We can find a rental for a few years as he develops. You take a shoot on talent like his at 21.
