Following potential 2013 draftees

[Thee Jazz Fan]

who are you to question his toughness?

u ever seen him in a fight or flight situation?

trey burke is a year older and has 25lbs on him, id bet the farm Schroder would absolutely kick the **** outa him, honestly..

Can you please explain this?

That there are..

I see Len or Noel, one, being the #1 taken. However, I do NOT think whoever is left on the board is a lock for #2. Pretty weird.

This is a weak *** draft, but is going to be fun to watch, as I have no idea where anyone is going to be drafted. I don't even have a clue who will go #1, and I'll be in SG for the draft. I don't care if the fam has plans. I'm watching this draft! Bad draft and I can't wait!

DX just updated their draft and we're back to....Mason Plumlee , but Schroeder at 21
Also Givony was the last holdout on removing Bazz from the lottery, this is no longer true, he has dropped him to 15.

Jazz hot for Withey.

 

[kabenac]

I've been a Withey fan for a while. For only weighing 235 he has a good inside presence.

I read that wrong at first and was about to report you for racialism.

I'm not sure why but the draft seems to be taking forever to get here.

I thought the off-season had been going by pretty fast. There was a lot to talk about with all the players the Jazz invited for workouts. But now, I agree with you, the last several days have just dragged on. I guess we're all talked out. Now it's just rehashing pros and cons and discussing if and why certain players are dropping or rising.

Yep.

Interesting stuff from Chad Ford ‏@chadfordinsider this morning:

Jamaal Franklin joining the Oladipo-McLemore-Porter workout in Cleveland on Wednesday. What a workout!!!

Working on my annual ranking draft prospects by tiers column. Never seen such an utter lack of consensus among teams so close to draft.

Kings could really shake-up the draft at 7. Heard they like both Tony Snell & Tim Hardaway Jr. a lot. Both in Sacramento today working out

Kings also like Muhammad, but he had to pull out of a 2nd workout w/ Kings today because of an injury …

Like I said, there's zero consensus in draft after 1st 6 guys - Noel, Oladipo, Porter, McLemore, Len & Bennett. Wide-open after that ...​

The Kings have the 7th and 36th picks. Snell & Hardaway would both be gone by 36. 7th is way earlier than anyone predicts for those guys. Now 21 would be a great place to pick Snell or Hardaway......

Muhammad is having a 2nd workout for the Kings? I think that means they're pretty sold on him at #7, no? This is good news for us, meaning McCollum and MCW, or even possibly Burke, might fall.

(unless you're a Bazz homer, yes you know who you are)

 

[The Midnight]

Wow.. if this is all Trey Burke can be, I'd rather take someone else...

Andrew Z. (Struthers, OH)

What are the best and worse case scenarios for Trey Burke?

Chad Ford (1:20 PM)

Mike Bibby as a ceiling. to Kemba Walker

 

[orangello]

Wow.. if this is all Trey Burke can be, I'd rather take someone else...

I've been in the anti-Burke bandwagon for a while. I just think that he'll be disappointing to the team that selects him, unless it's in the late teens or later.

More on Burke...

Vishal (Orlando)

Is there a chance that a team looking for point guard help drafts CJ McCollum before Michael Carter Williams and Trey Burke? I think the Magic would be a good fit.

Chad Ford (1:21 PM)

Maybe. I think the Suns like McCollum more than Burke or Williams. Ditto for the Blazers. Think the Kings prefer Carter-Williams. Pistons are neck-and-neck with Burke/Carter-Williams. Have heard the Magic and Pelicans both may prefer Carter-Williams.

I have a feeling teams will prefer upside over a safe pick on draft night... the NCAA finals are long gone in the distant memory... Also because Burke hasn't been competing in workouts, it's really hard to peg him above MCW.
