As horrid as last season was, there were glimpses that the talent level was not that far away: The beatdown of the Blazers in Portland and a couple of wins in Florida are examples. Of. course multiple contusions and illnesses ravaged the team soon thereafter
Here are the pieces we would need: A journeyman point guard, a two guard in the role of Malik Beasley, and a swiss army knife like a healthy Jared Vanderbilt.
The previous owners' formula for being profitable was to stay out of the luxury tax and have two playoff series. Perhaps Ryan's outside investments are not faring well and he wants to see less red ink on the books.
From my limited knowledge of this draft Creighton, Michigan, Clemson, South Dakota State and Stanford all hade usable centers in addition to Yang and the giant Aussie that one of our second round picks could be used for.
I saw an article on Hoopsrumors that KJ Martin's contract is non-guaranteed and also for eight million dollars. That seems like an easy decision to move on from.
He is the pride of Willamette University in Salem Oregon a Division III school that does not give athletic scholarships. He is so obscure that he's in the Homey Hall of Fame.
Look how Pop's and Sloan's teams played during their good years. Guys that didn't play defense rode pine. I believe Jimmer had a brief stop in San Antonio and was told you don't play defense we have to part ways.
In one of the mock drafts, it has the Jazz taking in the second round a 7 foot Russian center from U of Michigan who apparently has some skills. He sounds like he could be a great addition to Kessler. Regardless the Jazz need to get four talented guys in this draft as part of the blueprint...
Last Spring my red flags went up when Cody was outplayed in an NCAA tournament game by a guy from Boise State who is a good college player but will not be drafted as he was not invited to both the GLeague combine and the NBA draft combine.
I think Locke is rright. Lauri held off signing his deal and is not eligible to be traded until the next basketball year in the CBA which is well after the draft.
