Re: Draft talk?
assumin williams is still around at 25 it would dumb to pick dudley considering hest not as good. the jazz also dont need him...hes 6-7 SF he wont be playin over millsap. they need an athletic defensive center and thats what sean williams is, hes the best shot blocker they can get. i watch a lot of college basketball (more than the NBA) and dudley does not impress me. ive seen sean williams play and hes gonna make a lot of teams regret passin on him i feel. yes he has question marks but hes a lottery type talent and if i were KOC id gamble on him.
i like the trade w/boston for #5 and ratliff however....i would wonder who to pick though. corey brewer i think is overhyped, joakim noah i cant stand and he'll be a bum in the NBA, horford i like but utah already has boozer, yi jianlian no thanks, green and wright dont fit. i would probably rather stay put and draft morris almond at 25. the one player id trade up for is nick young but hes still not the pure shooter almond is and this team needs outside shootin.
as much as people want AK47 traded the weakside defense is going to suffer if hes gone and the jazz cant get someone in the draft or FA who can defend. AK is not the biggest problem on the jazz.....starting derek fisher at SG is. id love the deal w/boston but i dont think ainge is going to do that. the only player id really wanna trade AK for is gerald wallace but thats out of the question as he costs too much.
i wonder if thaddeus young could possibly slip to 25. doubt it but most of the mocks have him going in the 18-20 range. again hes a SF but i really feel like this guy is going to be a star. if the jazz could somehow trade up a few picks to get him (dump giricek, collins, #25) it would be a steal. hes going to have a better career than brandan wright IMO....and im a tarheel fan.
a guy i forgot to mention late in the draft is herbert hill from providence, i like his game.
