Hello- I am a very long time Jazz Fan......and went to the Draft party at the old Delta Center when Stockton was drafted. I have been following this board closely for a long time.....realgm is great.

#12?

I like Marcus Morris a lot. He is an excellent 3 point shooter, can dribble, fake , blocks shots, dunks....a great all around player.

Other choices at 12 include......
T. Jones
K Leonard
Kemba.

I think we can get a ver y good player at 12.

Cheers

First time poster as well so go easy on me...

I am thinking depending on where EXACTLY we have our picks at we should take a long look at Donatas Motiejunas. This kid is tall, athletic, and can shoot beyond the arc. I think he would bring some much needed attitude as I would think he would pair up greatly with either Millsap or Jefferson. As for the second pick I REALLY like Terrence Jones. He is very explosive, and again can score from anywhere on the court. Of course PG is a need, but I believe that Harris has enough talent and leadership to take us to the next level.

Let me know what you think

My fear of Motiejunas is that if what is being reported his true, he just doesn't have a fire for the game which would explain his horrific defense and rebounding numbers. But who knows, it's always hard to determine what a players drive is, Favors had questions about his drive also, and he's just fine.

My guess though, if we stay at 6 is that Motiejunas is likely gone. His size, his skill set, and his athleticism imo give him the highest potential in the draft, so I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him go 1-5.

I agree that he will probably be gone before 6, im just saying that if we get an earlier pick or for some reason he falls, should we take him? I also see on most MDs that we take Jan Vesely. Havent seen a lot from him but ive heard he is the next Andrei Kirilenko, which scares me. If Donatas is gone i say we take Knight and TJones at 12. I would love to see the Wildcat tandem work out.
