I'd rather keep Millsap and gamble the 12th pick on Fredette learning how to run an offense, rather than give up Millsap and gamble the 6th or 7th pick on Knight.

Knight might not even last that long anyway, and the 6th or 7th pick I'd wanna roll the dice on Biyombo instead. Especially when in the 2012 draft Kendall Marshall is projected at the top of the second round.

Don't spend a top 10 pick on a PG unless he's going to be a stud. Knight will only be pretty good. 2nd round pick Kendall Marshall might be better.
 
But the hole at PG is huge? Brandon Knight won't fill it at least for a couple years. And it's not like PGs are that rare. Guys that are 6' 11" 260 lbs. on the other hand...

Dude please stop this pg are not that rare nonsense. I mean jesus that is just stupid. B knight is a great player. Proven. Kanter is not. He is as rare as kosta and robert swift.

I am now convinced you have seen no more than 4 uk games last year. Let me guess all of them in march? Marshall better than knight?????? You my friend are the only person in the world thinking that. Its evident you hate knight for no reason other than you have this delusion that pg dont win championships. OGreat players with a supporting cast win championships. No one thinks knight will be the best player on the team, but he certainly can be 2 nd or 3 rd option.

Guess that's why we had such great ones as McLeod, Palacio, Hart and Brevin Knight. Both Kanter and Brandon Knight are huge risks. That's also the case with Williams (a tweener?) and even Irving (only played 11 games). Last season there seemed to be 5 "cant-miss" prospects (and even Cousind had some red flags). Not the case this draft.

At least it seems Knight and Kanter are both high-character guys. I don't see problems with any of them fitting in with the culture of the team.
 
Extremely unlikely Williams will be there at #3. I'd take Leonard at #3 in a heartbeat. Very coachable and great work ethic to go with that amazing wingspan. Maybe the next Dr. J... I wouldn't go for any of the big men at #3; too early. Every indication we get from KOC and Coach Ty is they are looking for that #3 to step right in and PLAY. None of the bigs, IMO, appear ready for much NBA-level court time this season.
At #12, I expect Vucevic to still be there, not so with Kanter. Vucevic is also very coachable, nice wingspan and work ethic, although still a bit of a project. No big man could help us in year 1 anyway; I expect to see Favors and Jefferson starting...
 
Yeah, if we could trade UP from the #12, that'd be great. Maybe Kirilenko in a package; who knows. If I'm KOC, I'm looking at any kinda offer if someone wants to trade down for that #12...
 
Not trying to troll your thread but what about Burks at #12 who I've seen in a few mocks that low?

Personally, I'd love Singleton, Biyombo or Burks at 12. Oddly enough, I'm not as hung up on who we get at #3, whether it's Kanter, Williams or Knight, and weirdest of all, for some reason I do not trust Williams and how his defense and first step will translate at this level.

I think I might be leaning towards Marshon Brooks over Burks.
