2014 Draft Discussion

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

Wow. 4, 12, Oladipo and Affalo? That's near robbery, then again, Wiggins and Jabari only come along once in a while.

Seems to be either/or, not both.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

I hope the Cavs take Wiggins with the first. If they trade down, I'd love to see them take Emiid, even with it not being a "results right now" option.

[WTF]

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

If the Cavs are smart, I still say they stay the course with Wiggins. Of course, that all depends on what else they could get for 4 & 12. Oladipo is a nice young piece, but he's going to end up being a Ben Gordon/Kemba Walker type with better defense. Undersized 2 guard is not exactly what Cleveland needs with Kyrie at the 1.

@WojYahooNBA
Cleveland and Orlando nowhere on a possible deal for the No. 1 pick, team sources tell Yahoo Sports. "Total bull****," one executive says.

Thank God, some of the rumors were starting to get scary with the Cavs shopping 4 and 12. I was afraid the Cavs were going to end up with, like, Afflalo and some ****ty roleplayer.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

If Charlotte walks away from tonight with Stauskas or McDermott I'll be happy. If we go with Harris, Payton, or Young I won't be pleased at all.

I'd rather have Stauskas than McDermott to be honest. I hope we trade up from the 24 spot to get in the 14-18 slot.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

if orlando gives up 4, 12 and oladipo just to get wiggins or parker im going to just give up any sort of hope that team makes it back to something close to a top seed.

@ tmac, trade you 17 for 24 and reke :P

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

I hope the Cavs hold on to the pick and get wiggins. Hopefully Exum not coming out to work out was the final nail in the coffin. Teams need stars to win championships, not a bunch of solid players.

I really think both are going to be good players. McDermott can flat out score. He is going to be a guy that gives you instant offense is the bench.
Stauskus is just a great player and is a sharpshooter as well. I don't know why any gm would want Gary Harris over him

It is Gilbert and Cleveland. Anything is possible. This draft has the possibility to be the craziest in recent memory. We might see the record broken for amount of trades in one night.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

hypothetically speaking here...if the kings trade isaiah and mclemore with the #8 for rondo... i would like to see (if available) embiid/vonleh @ 6, mcbuckets @ 8, and kj mcdaniels @ 17.

of course id rather have rondo, but id be excited to watch an isaiah-mclemore-green-sully-embiid/vonleh starting 5 with mcbuckets and kj off the bench

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

well if orlando gets #1 its with oladipo

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA · 4m Orlando has agreed to send Arron Afflalo to Denver for Evan Fournier and 56th pick in 2014 Draft, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.


--im guessing they will go hard after exum/smart now, to start/play along side oladipo since it appears they are stick him back at SG and giving up on the PG experiment

also, chad ford now has the hawks taking napier lol...what they gonna do play 4 PG's at the same time?

If we were to get him or Lavine in the 17 or 18 range (if we were to trade up) I wouldn't be mad. I don't like hearing about McGray getting a promise at 24

Isaiah Thomas is an unrestricted free agent I believe. He can't be offered in a trade.

Hawks are rumored to be aggressively trying to trade Jeff Teague, and it sounds like they've already given up on Schroder as well.
