    I guess Kris Humpries will be great as a Jazz player...

    He will be, and I really hope Utah drafts him, and don't make the same mistaje they made with Carlos Boozer. They need a true PF bad. However he will need to get bigger before he's NBA ready. He'll proably be starting in his Rookie season, from the start or at a point in the season.

    This is too early to talk about the draft. First off, we have no idea where Utah will stand. They could and most likely will have a lottery pick. Kris Humphries is a great player, but he's only a Freshman. Who says he's one and done? Not many players leave after their first years unless their team wins the championship or they are unsatisfied with their school. You guys are just saying Humphries because you saw him predicted to go to the Jazz on nbadraft.net anyway. Have any of you actually watched the Golden Golphers this season? I believe he will stay. If the Jazz had around the thirteenth pick, then I'd take a look at Jaime Lloreda. I saw Lloreda live against Purdue in the NCAA tournament last season and I was very impressed. I felt he was better than both Ronald Dupree and Willie Dean. He's the bulky banger the Jazz need. I believe nbadraft.net has him low, but their word is worth two cents (forty bucks if you bought their premium package). Lloreda will make a jump in the draft like Troy Bell and Dahntay Jones did. You just wait and see. Knowing Utah, they'll probably draft Luke Jackson though. Teams in the northwest love hometown kids and white guys (not being racist, just look at the Jazz roster).

    ^^I've been following NBADraft.net's Utah first round pick for a while, and are convinced they do not know Utah. This is the first time they've had Kris Humphries as Utah's first round pick. Normally they have a SF, the last position Utah will look to improve on.
    Utah wont take Luke Jackson though(unless it's a late second round pick), even though seem to love white swingmen and SF's. They need a proper PF, because despite how well he can handle it, Andrei Kirilenko is not a PF. But I love the idea for Jamie Lloreda of LSU.

    It's hard to say who they will draft this far out, but any true PF that can contribute quickly is a good pick.

    No, Humphries will be great in Sloan Offense. That's just that. [​IMG]
