its still a lottery, so they arent guarantee'd. But i tihnk they have Golden state's pick as well in this draft, not sure. they only get it if golden state don't get a top 15 pick or something like that. which at this rate, is probably going to happen.

im not sure what they would do. Favors and Kanter and doing their first season as starters. u gotta remember, even though this is his 4th NBA season, he is only 22. and his offensive game is still developing. Defensively he is a beast, but ironically, its probably very lean in terms of good PF's in the NBA at the moment. There are not too many offensively good PF's in NBA at the moment, except for say, Anthony Davis, Blake griffin....
but this season will be the telling season. he has big raps on him. kanter is pretty good. still young as well.

i think a lot of the scoring/offensive problems the jazz have at th emoment is because they don't have a back-court. id prefer hayward at SF personally, so that leaves a hole at SG and PG. Trey Burks is apparently the PG saviour, but hasn't seen any court time, so the jury is out on him.
so yer. either way. i reckon they will trade for a top level PG. they will have salary cap room and a a good team to attract a good PG.

their bench at the moment is reaaly bad as well.

I'm also very surprised ad has been allowed to make the leap this year. Who would have known all of his teammates could share?

Jennings/backboard/Drummond, been too long since a backboard has gotten the assist I say

I thought you were talking about Jennings chucking ability and Drummond's rebounding numbers! Then I saw the play. Shoulda win-milled it.

they shoulda played defense so that they would have won the game.

or maybe they should've played kung fu for the win.

Hahahahaha wow that is actually awesome... But insane

Poor Rosé, bulls to miss the playoffs

The Bulls will still make the playoffs cos the East is so bad.
Brooklyn and New York are struggling to make the playoffs, two of the most expensive teams in the NBA.

yer NY are... well...just full of bad decisions in the past 10 years.

HOWEVER - i think they doing something sneaky - They are resting Stoudemire such that he either:
a) Gets so frustrated that he asks to be traded
or
b) they are saving him such that after the trade deadline, they will start playing him, his production will go up and he will basically have the mentality that he is playing for a future contract next season somewhere else.

I think his contract expires this year? not sure. pretty sure it does. so they can let him go or try and get something for him before trade deadline, whihc i think won't be much because his contract is so big.

He'd be basically untradeable I would have thought

According to the link below, he has this and next season on his contract:
