What's new

What would you give up for a top 3 pick?

If we trade our picks + Millsap and wait till 2013 to get our PG, here's what our team could look like

PG - (Harden, Curry, CP3, Lawson)
SG - Burks, Hayward
SF - (Barnes, MKG, Brittney Griner), Hayward
PF - Favors
C - Kanter, (Pekovic)

CP3 is never going to be a Jazzman. I'd love MKG is we got some shooters. Also that is an awefully young team.
 
I'd rather have any of our bigs than anyone in this draft besides Davis. I am not high on MKG. The incentive to get the 2nd or 3rd pick is not there for me. Probably the highest projected player I'd want is Barnes.

In agreement.
 
Me 3, and I wouldn't do Kanter and the 2 picks this year, like was suggested above. I think Kanter is underrated on this board.

I don't think there's anyway we can get Davis. Having said that, would people do Millsap + the 2 picks for #3?

Questions of his explosions are legitimate, but I also feel people forget what an impressive feel for scoring and acumen that he has for being so insanely young.

I also think he's the best big we have on the defensive end. Favors has the best physical profile, but Kanter - somehow - moves his feet better than anyone when forced to guard ballhandlers. I'm impressed every single time. I don't know why Favors doesn't do that better (maybe because in the back of his mind he knows/thinks his length compensates or that being behind on the play actually makes it easier to block shots, I really don't know), but Kanter's ability on this side of the floor has been the most surprising thing that's happened this season.

I think Kanter does a better job at times because he doesn't try to block shots, so he just uses his body to plant in front of the rim, but I think Favors is miles ahead of him on the defensive end and always will be.
