Following potential 2015 draftees

Satnam Singh Bhamara climbs the DX mock to 51.. I think he's an interesting option for the Jazz at 54. Singh isn't as lumbering as you'd expect for 7'2", 290lbs, he's no Sim Buhlar... looks like hes got some touch on his shot.

He's on the fast track to the d-league, and will probably look bad in summer league. I dont doubt that he could end up serviceable in a few years though.

Aiming to add a playmaker, Cavs looking to package Brendan Haywood's contract & their first round pick

Thought this was interesting. . .

Another asset the Cavs could use in a deal this summer are the rights to Russian center Sasha Kaun. The 30-year-old Kaun, who played at Kansas, was drafted in the second round in 2008. He played the last seven seasons for CSKA Moscow but is now a free agent and wants to come to the NBA. He averaged 9.9 points and 4.5 rebounds in 30 Euroleague games this season and projects as a backup in the NBA.

Don't know anything about him, but I bet the Jazz and Spurs have a pretty good idea if he can play or not.

He seems like a nice kid too. Someone might draft him and send him to the D-League for awhile.

I'd do that too if Wood is there. The Cavs pick at 24 isn't as late as I thought.

I'd do it for a number of players actually. I'd do it for Delon Wright, too. I don't know if Burke would be enough though. They aren't just selling the pick. They are selling 10.5 million in cap space. Maybe he is but I kinda think they are shopping for someone a little more experienced.

I think Rakeem Christmas, Jordan Mickey or Jarrell Martin are better picks than Christian Wood or Chris McCullough.

Thaz cuz yer dum
 
Montrezl Harrell would be another good pick at 24, imo. I'd also look at Cliff Alexander.

I haven't thought much about the late first round.
 
Ok, draft night.

#12: Myles Turner

Then use our two second round picks to move up (if necessary) to draft Anthony Brown.

Roster

Exum/Burke/cotton
Burks/Brown/milsap
Hayward/Hood/ingles
Favors/Booker/
Gobert/Turner

Pretty darn solid starting line up and back ups. A lot of different options too. Pretty much don't add FA and grow the team.
 
Simple math says that Booker, Turner, Johnson or Oubre will be there for us at 12. If we really care about which one we should get, we should trade up to 9.

I would. I don't care much for Burke anymore. Even if we took Chris McCullough with the late first-round pick.

If Chris McCullough did land in Utah, when he's ready; I think most around here would quickly become a fan because he's a ball-hawk, versatile and athletic. The coaches would rave about his potential IMO. If the Jazz really want to pride themselves on player development McCullough is a project with considerable upside. He could've been a lottery pick next year, but declared because his GF's pregnant.

He's phenomenally athletic for a 6'9" player who can guard the rim and possesses recovery speed blocking shots out to the 3pt line. he shows good ability switching onto smaller defenders, which is a rarity, and seperates him from the Walter Sharpe's and Tyrus Thomas types in my eyes. A developed McCullough with what the Jazz already have in place could really tip the scales in future frontcourt matchups.

I don't care enough to waste an asset on it. Now if it was to trade up for Hezonja/Porzingis/Russell I'd lose assets within reason in order to get those...

If Kaminsky isn't a great offensive player, he's probably a bust.

I'm a fan of Frank and I actually agree with this.

His offense will be his bread and butter and he better be as good on that end as I think he will be or yes he will be a bust

This.
 
Hows about trying to swap 12 for 13 whilst finagling Bogdan Bogdanovic from Pheonix for lesser assets??? (Who wont come to the NBA for another 2 seasons til his rookie scale is up)

Dude shot 39% from 3 this year including;
