Jazz Pre-Draft Workouts

I also think Montiejunas > Okur.

Greg Monroe seems like a good comparison. Both had questions about their motor coming into the draft. Motiejunas did put on a considerable amount of muscle which says to me that he is willing to put in work to improve.

If KOC goes Knight at #3, then I want Donatas at #12.

If you had to choose between Kanter/Jimmer or Knight/Motiejunas which combo would you take?

Great question. I'd have to go K/J over K/M ... but it's close.

 

[mellow]

I have to go Knight/ Monti, but only because you don't have a Jonas V. & Monti option. I have an affinity (or is it proclivity?) for European Basketball. I find it and its players much more entertaining than Mr. Sterns spectacle and the arrogance of the American players.

I would love to seethe Jazz run that staggered pick and roll that dallas runs with Jonas V., Monti and Hayward. Hayward dribbles into the double pick, Jonas rolls hard to the basket and Monti either steps back for a three or recieves a pass and makes a quick pass to Jonas or to Favours who is cutting from the opposite baseline.

Or Hayward keeps the ball attacks the basket for a dunk a dump off to the far corner for Jimmer or Shelvin Mack for three!!!

This. Hamilton can shoot the ball and has the athleticism for substantial upside. Tighten up his dribble and TEACH him to defend and he can become a very good pro. I think the other two simply have more limited ceilings ... and don't shoot it as well, right now.

Just like CJ Miles. It's as easy as 1, 2, 3. Just teach, and he will do!

Hamilton is definitely a better pure shooter than Miles is.

Did the Jazz workout Tristan Thompson at all?

Hopefully not, he is the last guy I want at 12.

 

[Hantlers]

I can't believe how much I've been agreeing with you lately. Tristan doesn't fit what we need/want in any way or form.

 

[Stifle Tower]

Did the Jazz workout Tristan Thompson at all?

Maybe that means he's the guy. KOC trying to throw everyone off by working out Singleton, etc.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Hopefully not, he is the last guy I want at 12.

This.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Has any news dropped from todays workouts? Today seemed like a lot of players who are projected to be their at 12 for us.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Does news leak, on Sundays, in Utah?

Well people are working to work them out, so Im sure a couple of reporters showed up.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Can someone please post a video of Kanter playing compelling defense at any level ??

Apparently Kawhi Leonard was a no show

Former San Diego State forward Kawhi Leonard was originally scheduled to work out Sunday for the Jazz. But Leonard's session fell through, and he was not listed by the team for Monday's session, which is expected to be the final workout the Jazz will hold before the 2011 NBA Draft on Thursday in Newark, N.J.

Well then if he falls to 12 you can book it and I would be very happy with Leonard at 12.
