  • If they were to move DeRozan I wonder what he and the two second rounders in a package could get us. Perhaps a team like Utah whom don't have a need for yet another rookie might show interest. Say DD and the two second rounders for their second first rounder?

      I don't think they'd be interested. They drafted Burks last year and have Hayward as well.

            Yeah Burks is supposed to be a big time scorer, but hasn't yet shown it as yet. I thought Hayward was a 3 but I suppose he has the skill set to play SG when the Jazz go with a bigger line up. I would hate to part with DD, but if Beal is still there when the Raptors pick it would be hard to pass on him.

              If Beal was there I'd take him and figure the rest out later.

              • True, but I would try to take advantage of the surplus of starting quality of SG's we have in this years draft. As many chances of hitting the jackpot in the draft can only be a good thing right?

                • picking 5th wouldn't be bad. I feel like in any scenario either MKG or Beal would fall to us

                    Today was the deadline for underclassmen to declare if they planned to return to their NCAA team. Of course in the grand scheme of things, that means d!ck all. Players can still declare before April 29th. Really the only player not declared who should be is Andre Drummond. If his university declaration is any indication, wait for a last minute answer on April 29th. Given he is not on scholarship, UCONN is not eligible for the tournament next year, and Calhoun is a candidate for retirement, it seems like it is just a matter of time before declaration.

                    Anyways, in celebration of this meaningless day, here is the top mocks latest mocks:

                        Yea me too, but if Cleveland selects before us again there's NO WAY they're letting us get our man again. No chance they pass on MKG. Why would they want another PF? I don't think there's any way Sullinger will be a C in the NBA, aside from spot situations possibly.

                          i figured cleveland would take a wing or a center with their pick. i don't think drummond will get past them if they choose after 1 and if he isn't on the board i think they are in the mkg/beal dilemma we are in as well.

                          in unrelated news, i just found out that dilemma is not spelled dilemna. the more you know.

                          as a side, for cleveland i think that sullinger needs to be paired with a player like tristan or jv or davis. i think that if he is the main option in your front court your team is going to have problems. i have also said i would not want sullinger because fo his legs being two different sizes.

                              • Wing is a pressing need for the Cavs and they will have a dilemna if both Drummond and Barnes are still on the board when it's their turn to draft. They need a wing, but the chance to choose a potential superstar in Drummond is too hard to pass up.
