What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

I would want 'another' pick..

/depending

Give up;
Burks for a top 20
Hayward for a top 8
Favors or Kanter for a top 5
Garret for a top 3

jazz will draft their version of the fab 5

own pick = jabari Parker
gsw pick = Aaron Harrison (dreaming that Harrison slides and gsw falls)
favors traded for Joel embiid
Hayward traded for Aaron Gordon
burks traded for Gary Harris

Harrison
Harris
Parker
kanter
embiid

Burke
Gordon
Gobert

Harrison can get back up minutes with Burke playing the 2
Gordon can get the minutes at the 3 and the 4
Gobert is a great replacement for embiid
 
Aaron Gordon still looks like more of an energy player to me--a skilled one, a la Shawn Marion. But I'm not that high on him yet.
 
As intriguing as these high picks are, I'm not as eager as everyone else seems to be in trading away the Jazz current players to begin another complete rebuild. Getting a bunch of rookies is going to ensure at least a couple of years of development for each player IMO, except maybe the top one. I think the Jazz have a solid foundation already and should be more focused on finding that elite wing player, and a one or two other nice pieces to round out the team. I'm really not interested in the Jazz being this putrid for a couple more seasons.

This got me thinking. How would you guys rank the following players at the PG position?

- Aaron Harrison
- Kasey Hill
- Trey Burke

I don't know who Kasey Hill is, but Burke is way better than Harrison at this point. Harrison might be better a few years down the road, but I don't think he will ever be better in the halfcourt

Obviously, I like me some Trey Burke!

I agree with this unless we have more than 8 wins by new years. I don't want a full rebuild either but if we have to trade one of the core in order to secure a top pick that's what we should do. Would you trade Favors for Jabari and another pick? I would.

I like Trey Burke too, but if after this year he's not as good as advertised, isn't it comforting to know that we'll have the likes of Aaron Harrison and Kasey Hill that we can grab with the GSW pick!!!

No one, and I mean NO ONE would trade Jabari for Favors.

LOL... name me 1 team that would do that trade with us.

Maybe, unless they aren't as good as advertised.

Did you read the whole post?

Hows about a team that has no shot at him anyway. If we had to trade away favors to secure last place it would be effectively(though not literally) trading Favors for Jabari or Wiggins or Randle or Exum plus whatever they were willing to give us in that trade.

hehey, I see what you're saying now. If you go back and read your post, you'll see why it was easy to misunderstand.
