if we looked at Bennet as more of the 6th or 7th pick he should have been things would be different. He is being eternally punished because the Cavs are morons

He just got drafted by a poorly managed team and then got traded to a team full of young players so he never really got a shot. When he did get a chance he produced well, he's just inconsistent at times which a lot of young players struggle with. When he plays with confidence he's fun to watch, as we saw this past week.

He is due to make $7m in year 4 - they have to make that decision before the start of year 3.
Very possible they decline due to Dieng and now Towns.
I wouldn't give up assets for him and I wonder if he wasn't canadian would he be desired trade target.Last edited by mcHAPPY; Sun Jul 26, 2015, 06:31 AM.

i doubt people would be defending his bust status as well. we can take it to the extreme and say kwame brown wasn't a bust just drafted 30+ spots to early

Doubt Minnesota accepts the deal tho, and he likely isn't worth the asking price. Minnesota isn't tied to him as a number 1 the way Cleveland was though. Might be willing to take less to get out of his contract (which is obviously #1 pick status) but I suspect that he would be available to the Raps as soon as he's a UFA.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

Kwame has a full career worth of evidence to judge him on. Bennett has 2 years, the first was hampered by injury. Considering he was the top pick in what was expected to be a weak class and was more of a potential vs productivity pick, too early to say what Bennett will be. He will always fail when compared to other #1 picks, but that doesn't mean he can't be a productive player.Heir, Prince of Cambridge

Bennett is a PF, and if you trade a salary (ies) totaling $3.85 million per annum, you can make the trade. My question are you trading Scola (dont believe you can trade him before Dec.) plus a 900,000 salary slot , at least you are opening playing time for Bennett.
Just dont understand the logic of these supposed trades!
Are you trading Scola + TRoss +1st Round pick for Faried, or Patterson +1st round pick for Morris or are you praying for Al Horford for a sign and trade next year giving them PPat within our own conference.

I don't normally go to the if drafted lower card. But even at the time of the draft this was seen as a reach by every single person covering the draft.
I'm not looking at him like he is #1 pick is all I'm saying. I don't have that expectation. My bar is set at lottery pick. Which means I would like to see him as a consistent starter by the time his first extension comes due.
I think he is capable... I do not think it is a sure thingFor still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar
