Very happy with the Jazz' draft - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

They add a solid perimeter defender, athlete and passer in Ronnie Brewer. He can get to the hole. The Jazz needed his athleticism that he brings.

Dee Brown serves as a nice combo guard to back up Deron or play alongside him. You also have to think that Deron is stoked about the pick as well.

Finally, if you need a guy who is tough and a good rebounder, Milsap is a solid pick. I konw Gansey would have been nice, but if the Jazz really want to get CJ minutes this year, picking Gansey wouldn't really have been the best pick.

Great draft considering what fell to them. Very very happy.

So am I, I think they addressed the issue of athleticism at the wing and got a back up point who can play alongside Deron if needed.

Overall a great draft.

Love this lineup:

Deron
Ronnie
AK
Boozer
Okur

With as bad as Booz and Okur play defense, they rebound really well. AK can now pick up interior defense and be their 'shot-blocker' for short stretches, Ronnie can lock down people on the outside and Deron can play really good defense as well. I just hope that Sloan allows Brewer to play early and often and allows this team to gel, this could be a scary good team two years from now. I mean really good.

The biggest question will be whether or not Sloan will Burry him on the bench.
