Following potential 2014 draftees

nice to see Archie Goodwin finish the season with a bang

McLemore scored 31 too

as crazy as it sounds i'm almost as interested to see what the 2013 class is going to do next year as the rookies, there's so many question marks

Gorgui Deng was getting alot of hype recently and Gobert dominated him last night, ya gotta love that.
 
All the best players are coming out at the same time, which hasnt recently been the case, and the timing could not be better. Worst case scenario we end up with a borderline all star. Cant really complain about that considering its questionable if we currently have one of those on our roster.
 
And no player is valuable enough to allow Lindsey to move up. The top-3 picks are untouchable as each COULD be franchise players. You don't trade away a franchise player for a lesser pick and a player who is merely a complementary piece. Whichever teams land in the 1-3 slots would be CRAZY to trade away Embiid, Parker or Wiggins.

I agree. Not saying I'd give up a top 3 pick. But weird things happen. Maybe someone top 3 falls in love with Exum and thinks they can land him at 4 while also fleecing Utah for a young big, a second 1st this year and our unprotected 1st next season. You never know.
 
Lebron or Durant.
Last I checked, Utah didn't have the rights to either. My response was meant for bigmike and others who think Lindsey COULD actually do "whatever it takes" to acquire a top-3 pick in this draft. Utah either gets lucky in the lottery, or they draft a player like Randle, Gordon, etc.

You should stick to online GM'n.
 
Draft Exum and Burke or Burks has to be traded immediately. Exum is a prima donna; he fancies himself a star and won't accept coming off the bench. I hope the Jazz don't draft him. You'd jump out the window if the pick were Randle?

Exactly how did you come to the conclusion that Exum is a primm donna?
 
I spoke to a very well respected scout about an hour ago. He told me the league isn't as high on Randle as the mock drafts indicate. He said he's more likely to go around 10/11, in his opinion. Also thinks Young is being over-valued by the mocks. Thinks he's more likely to go early 20's.

I also spoke with the same person that gave me the scoop on Jabari (not just that he'd declare, but why the timeline had changed). Anyway, he said to look for the Harrison twins to announce on this coming Tuesday or Wednesday that they are returning to UK.

I'm not that surprised. It just confirms what many of us have been saying for some time. Randle's ceiling simply isn't that high.

Also, what we've already been discussing.. his lack of defensive ability and/or instincts, as well as they're concerned about his overall feel for the game, bbiq.
Obviously they love his rebounding and strength, which is why he's a lottery pick.

I've been leaning towards Gordon for a while, but now I really might put Smart ahead of Randle, too. I also think Vonleh deserves major consideration over Randle.

But hopefully we jump into the top 3 and don't even have to worry about this ****.
