What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

Because I don't think the Jazz are going to make a big splash on FA and will also lose Hayward and Hill,they'll get back to draft and develop.I think they'll have to hold onto Burks and Favors as they haven't had time to show their 100% healthy and back on track.Jazz have them signed and won't dump them cheap.
Without Hayward and Hill,Jazz still have 7 players that are entering their 3rd year and plus together.(Gobert,Favors,Ingles,Hood,Exum,Lyles,Burks).These 7 will be too damn good to be a tank team !3 years playing in Snyder's system,going into their 4th year.

Jazz Draft:
#24) Ike Anigbogu (C)...... With his reach and power he'd be a great backup behind Gobert
#30) Semi Ojeleye (SF)..... Another physical force at SF,

If they can pick up Patrick Beverly to share PG duties with Exum,Jazz will be 2 deep everywhere in their lineup

(C) Gobert,Anigbogu
(PF) Favors,Lyles,Balomboy
(SF) Ingles,Ojeleye
(SG) Hood,Burks)
(PG) Exum,Beverley
 
Finding it really hard to fall in love with any prospects in our range, even after watching hours of stuff on them. I mostly just have a couple guys I don't want them to take since I have faith in DL and co to draft well late in the 1st. I'd like to see him move up since that would probably mean someone they realllly value fell further than expected. I just can't get a good handle on this class. I also wouldn't be surprised if we trade a pick for a 1st next year.
 
The SL Trib has us taking Bradley and German dude.

Yuck

I would walk to Utah and kick DL in the nuts and punch walt perrin in the throat... then I'd help the Hayward's pack up their Bailey's moving and storage trucks.
 
I'm updating my big board on the day of the draft. This will be my final update.Take the rankings in the second round with a grain of salt since I have watched extremely limited film of them(aka youtubing)

Solid... I think I'd have Josh Hart a tier higher and have some slight changes to the tiers, but that is pretty solid.

You love you some Bam... tell me why... I'm Bam agnostic but could be a believer.

To me Bam looks like a more skilled version of Biyombo/Jordan/Drummond... problem is... his measurables are a tier below those(I think with the league going smaller this won't be a big problem). He still has an NBA frame and body and insane athleticism at his size. I still think he can switch and defend on the perimeter and I think he can be a good(maybe not great) rim protector. From workout videos I've seen his shot looks much better than I expected. There is potential for him to be able to stretch the floor at some point. He has good hands catching the ball in traffic and on lobs and has some awesome power moves in the paint, his post moves are somewhat rudimentary but again - I think he's further ahead than most of the bigs of his type in the draft.

Honestly, is Lydon that much better than Nigel Hayes?

I want Hayes brought in on a 2-way contract. I think he's got good role player all over him. Can hit open shots, move the ball, work the post and had the length/quickness to play decent defense.
