What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

Players I'd be happy Jazz got:
KAT, Russell, Porz, Hez, Johnson, Oubre, Turner, Kaminsky, WCS, Looney.

I'd be ok with but slightly less happy about:
Portis, Booker, Lyles.


That's 13 players and I didn't include Okafor, Mudiay, or Winslow - who are all expected to go before the Jazz pick = 16 players.
 
Can't wait.

This is tough to predict what's going to happen. So many ways the Jazz can go. Same with the draft.

The draft is over rated... Check ball already! You can't hide after the draft is over

Crap, is that Rudy in the ring?
 
I think this is why I don't like Trey lyles.

Trey lyles
Trey Burke
Alec Burks

Just too much for my feeble brain.
 
Anyone else catch the podcast with Givony where he said the draft is rich in talent high, but that there have been lots of medical flags raised about top-10 picks recently? Wouldn't go into detail about who, except for the already known WCS. Could be a very interesting draft.

Rudy looking buff.
 
Daniel Leroux and Nate Duncan are discussing whether or not the Jazz should make a pitch for Cousins in their latest "Dunc'd on" podcast(the Utah part starts at about 33:30):

To summarize:
-Initial offer - Gobert+Exum+Burks... Leroux says no way Utah should do this. They love Rudy way too much. Utah should just let those guys grow. Duncan is not so sure... he thinks Hayward-Favors-Cousins front-court would be great and we can draft a PG or make a play for a Lawson type of PG and become instant contenders.
-Second offer - Gobert+Burks - Leroux says he'd take that for Utah, because it in effect becomes a question - will Gobert be better than Cousins?
