Following potential 2015 draftees

Other than being nearly 10 years older, what do you guys see Justise Winslow bringing to the table that Millsap doesn't already? They have similar height, both are commited physical defenders and iffy shooters/offensive weapons, Millsap is dirt cheap at $1m+ for the next 3 years?


This is another reason why I think if we're drafting in the 10-14 range we might be trading that pick....

Is this a serious question?
 
I pray that ford knows what he is talking about, just played the lotto machine a lot and the jazz either got hezonja or Johnson except once we got Russell when we got the 3rd pick.

Enjoy it while you can, it's going to change quickly and harshly. We have creampuffs coming up all though March.
 
I am formally requesting Dalamon do his exorcism magic and get us a top 3 pick. We are playing hard and winning unlike the tankers... karma should be on our side.

If we land outside the top 8 I hope we move up... we have the assets to do it I believe but it would be pricey. Add one more blue chip talent in the draft, sign a decent wing FA, get some growth from our guys and we are in the playoffs next year with potential to be a contender in a couple years.

Booker at 10 or 12 is a pretty good pick up. Oubre or Looney too... but are we so sure thats where we draft?

Yeah only a few games will separate 8 from 12. If we have an injury to one of the big 3 then we will be in the 7/8 range, but we are playing really good. Our schedule is cupcake city. Unless the last two games were fool's gold.

I think it's anywhere between 10 and 14. Phoenix is deteriorating fast, Anthony Davis is out injured for NO and with our easy schedule we could overtake both of them and get to 14.

.... Dal weaved his magic once and we got Burke (like we wanted). Unfortunately he hasn't turned out to be the saviour we once hoped he could become.

He also reincarnated recently... Let him work his magic.
 
Regarding Winslow vs. Millsap: Winslow is a dramatically better athlete with better ball skills and explosion/elevation going to the rim. Probably a better passer too.

Regarding who's there at 10 - 12: I like Winslow, Oubre, Booker. We need an athlete on the wing who defends, shoots from range and fills the lane. I bet the Jazz secretly like Oubre, but we have to ask ourselves how much an upgrade he is over Hood.

FWIW, I think that Trey Lyles can replace what Kanter did for us more or less, and he brings some polish, versatility and IQ that Enes didn't have. I still think he's a sleeper pick. I know he's playing SF with Kentucky, but I think he could be close to an Al Horford as a pro.

If Cauley-Stein is there, I could see us taking him to fill out the front court. WCS can defend out on the floor and would be an awesome addition to what we already have.

I could see us getting Kaminsky, as the Jazz have been interested in Olynyk and Cody Zeller in the past.
