NBA Draft Big Winners!
The Cavs may not have won much during the season, but they just stole the show, at the draft, when they walked away with both the #1 and #4 picks. Maybe this is karma?

no, it was Nick Gilbert
yeah, pretty odd that they had BOTH of their picks beat the odds.....the #1 'shoulda' been #2...the #4 'shoulda' been #6 ........and the Wolves can't even win a ping pong contest Now, that said...the Cavs would be BIGGER winners...if this were a stronger draft. However, with 3 solid PG prospects in Irving, Knight, and Walker, they could strategically take their favorite of Derrick Williams or that Turkish center #1, knowing at least one of the 3 PGs would be there at 4....or...take their choice of the PGs at 1 (more likely) knowing that 1 of Williams or Kanter will be there at 4...or that kid from San Diego State

U may be better off getting Derek Williams from AZ. He is a dominant big guy. Him and Love will own paint. Reminds me of when I saw Durant not go #1. That was a shame. Durant may be the best player I saw come out in a decade or more. Sooo fun to watch. Silky smooth. Long and lean with a great jumper. Westbrook could be a Derek Rose if not for Durant. I love my boy Harden from ASU. Love the beard.

I agree, it's not a "strong draft", but they could probably try to package a trade and try to bring someone like Chris Paul or Dwight Howard to Cleveland. Do I think it's possible? Probably not, but it at least gives them some pieces to work with. |

I don't see Cleveland doing anything but using those picks...they're not looking at making a playoff run next year, they're looking at building a team for several playoff runs

Smart move would be take D Will and get a dominant forward who can be you stud then take Knight or Walker at #4. Guarantees 2 needs and giant pieces in rebuilding. If you take Irving then you may have guards available or take a big Euro at #4. Minny wants to trade for vets. Maybe swap w CLE 2 to 4 and CLE can get both Irving and Will. WOW!
