    Watched Russia play a "friendly" vs Lithuania and Jonas Valanciunas. For the Cleveland Cavs' sake, Tristan Thompson better be real good!
    Honestly....hometown bias aside......

    He's played awesome in the fiba under 19 tourney (won the gold & won MVP) and he's also playing really well in the eurobasket 11 exhibition games as well. He was just beasting against the czech republic a couple of days ago. He also went up against spain & held his own against Ibaka (espically in the 4th quarter).

    Hopefully he continues to play well and is able to transfer it over to the NBA game next season.

              Dagger John-

              My dad has a doctorate degree in education from a pretty good school.

              My brother holds a masters degree and a jurist doctorate degree.

              Both are fans of NBA basketball....

              Dagger John, maybe they are slightly ******** for enjoying NBA basketball, but you should understand, not everybody is perfect like you are.

                    I believe Irving will be an average PG in the NBA. No way is he in "Paul, Rose, Westbrook, Rondo, Williams" class.

                    I want Cleveland to take Derrick Williams and Knight/Kemba.

                    I think I might be the only person in the world that actually believes Kemba has just as much as upside (and more explosiveness) as Irving.
                    Haha clown good thing your not a GM.

                    Anyway I went through and read a couple of people post. Alot of guys were actually spot on on their predictions. The only thing though was to much credit was given to Derrick Williams and Jimmer Freddette.

                      I can't say it's been fair for Derrick Williams. I thought he would of had a spot with the Kings. But then the Rudy Gay trade messed up everything again. Didn't he drop like 31 in his second game before the trade.

                          The Derrick Williams vs Kyrie Irving debates were so stupid. Irving was, without a doubt, a better prospect yet people were going gaga over Williams for some unknown reason.

                          Undoubtedly, though, the Cavaliers managed to come out of this draft with success for the most part. Probably should have taken Klay over Thompson, but TT is a solid NBA'er, which is more than I can say for the majority of this draft.

                            I think the fact that Irving only played 11 games at Duke had something to do with it. Williams had a nice tournament run too. I think there was some banter because there always has to be at least a little but in the end Kyrie was the obvious #1 pick.
