Still waiting for the 18th pick to see if a trade with Washington is annouced. With Singleton, Leonard, and Marcus Morris still there, would love any one of them.

Long shot but 3 for the 6/18 is still possible.

I would rather have Kanter that Vesely and Singleton.

Not sure what to think with the picks. I think the Jazz did well in drafting in the BPA realm, but not sure how the team needs are met. What do you guys think the depth chart looks like now.

PG Harris, Watson (Resign)
SG Heyward, Raja
SF Miles (team option), Burks
PF Favors, Millsap, Evans
C Jefferson, OKur, Kanter

I think this draft means the Jazz don't resign AK, Elson, Fes. They may resign Price as a 3rd PG but not sure they can't pick up someone else. Overall, this lineup seems quite boring to me and I'm not sure where the points will come from. While Heyward is a decent outside threat, he isn't going to scare anyone from double teaming the post. This starting lineup is not a contending lineup, and I'm not sure if it's even a playoff caliber lineup in a strong western conference.

Hayward, Burks, Favors, Millsap, and AL will all be able to score. I'm more worried about defense. Not a single legitimate defender on this roster outside of Millsap.

Burka is a SG/PG. This probably means that the Jazz see Hayward at the 3 for the future.

I would think that the Jazz will re-sign Kirilenko at SF.

I don't want to prejudge Burk's, but I'm not so sure that the BPA concept is a winning strategy for the Jazz:

#1 There is a reason they are falling, and it is usually because of major flaws exposed during workouts, against their peers
#2 Singleton would have filled a bigger hole (i.e., perimeter defense), than Burks is going to fill
#3 How many more (Almond, Brewer, Koufos) types do we need before we call in a bad approach

In Brewer's defense he was a pretty solid pick.

Sacramento Kings: Tyreke Evans, Marcus Thornton, DeMarcus Cousins, Jimmer Fredette

Only One Basketball

That should be fun.

Maybe that will be enough to shoot themselves out of Sacramento and on to Anaheim.
