Assuming we don't land in the top 3 picks...
....what is the best course of action with the pick as a potential trade asset? Would Indiana consider trading it for Roy Hibbert? Minnesota for Kevin Love? Minny in particular may be interested in trading Love for another pick, and he'd fit in gorgeously here if Boozer leaves. Any other thoughts - even veterans that could be acquired in a bundle with a pick and existing players?

Not Roy Hibbert...
There are a ton of variables. It depends if somebody jumps us in the draft so we slide from 9 to 10 or even possibly 12.

the knicks didnt make the playoffs this year. their pick is in the lottery. every team who doesnt make the playoffs is in the lottery. the jazz own the knicks pick, therefore, the jazz will land in the lottery.

I wouldn't be opposed to trading it, though I'd probably try to package it with Memo or somebody and get an all-star big.

I think trading the pick is a great option if we get a higher pick than expected(10 or higher).

I would love to bring Hibbert to Utah. Dunno about Love...he would be a great fit but there has always been health issues with him. Depends on where the pick ends up and what kind of options are available.

Hibbert is garbage. One of the worst rebounders in the league. I'd much prefer Love to Hibbert.
