i have been messing around with the nba draft mock lottery on espn and every 4 or 5 times the jazz move up from the 6th pick. what if we can get derrick williams and then draft jimmer fredette at 12? https://espn.go.com/nba/lottery2011/mockdraft
Could this be our team when the league resumes play:
Al jefferson
paul millsap
derrick favors
mehmet okur
ante tomic
cj miles
gordon hayward
derrick williams
raja bell
jimmer fredette
devin harris
deron williams
ronnie price

I love how some people think that there is a chance Deron could come back.

Read the post. He said Derrick, not Derron. I think his Derron in the roster listing was inadvertent.

BTW, I hate the ESPN mock lottery. Just builds your hopes/dreams for something that isn't going to happen. But I had one hit where the Jazz's pick jumped to #1. And the NJ pick came in at #7. Jazz drafted Irving and Barnes (this was before Barnes stock shot up).
 
I think that 5-6 players should be better than Fredette for us....
Jimmer is an exciting player...but he is a very bad defender...he's short...he's not a play...
I prefer Knight...Walker...Barnes...maybe Burks...

Me too. If somehow all those guys are gone, which is possible in this weak draft, then we should probably get Jimmer.
Like you, I want those other players more.

Just hit up the draft machine and got this:

Jazz No. 6 pick: Jonas Valanciunas
Jazz No. 12 pick: Jimmer Fredette

Wonder if the machine has a built in "Jazz will only draft white guys" code...
 
Couldn't we also add Gerald Wallace and Josh Smith? I don't understand why you didn't include this in the OP...

Funny how that is. Also pretty annoying.

Well... I dunno... Imagine this line up.. it would be pretty cool..

C: Jonas Valanciunas
PF: Ante Tomic
SF: Andre Kirilenko
SG: Gordon Hayward
PG: Jimmer Fredette

Coach: Hornacek

Don't laugh.. it could happen..
 
I eff'd with the draft machine thing the other day and twice had us getting the first and second picks. Should have screen shot it. Out of 20 times (yes..........I'm a loser, what of it?) I did it twice was the 1/2 and 3-4 times we had the 2nd or 3rd pick.

Since we are rehashing draft talk here, I'll say again as a huge Jimmer/BYU fan, I'd take Knight and Walker before him. Kids a beast in college but it simply won't translate to the NBA. I still think he's a solid threat off a contenders bench if he gets in the right situation but that's it.

Ideally/somewhat realistically I'd love a combo of DwillII, Knight, Walker, Enes and Barnes (still not fully sold...).

Fredette won't go #12.

Time and time again I get Jazz selecting Jimmer at #12 - dunno why.. here's what it said about Jimmer:

"Fredette may not be the tallest or most athletic player in the draft. He may not be a great defender or a pure point guard. But he is the best scorer in college basketball. Fredette has ridiculous range on his jumper, plays with a big heart and finds a way to impact games. The comparisons to Stephen Curry are uncanny."

Don't forget Stephen Curry went 7th overall and that was widely considered a steal...

You need to get to Vegas quick. Do you have any idea what the odds are against the Jazz getting the first two picks? They're worse than 1 in 2000. The odds of having that happen twice in only twenty tries are ridiculous.
