They also have the 24th pick, and two very early 2nd round picks and there will be several good guards that will be available with those picks. They don't have to draft Beal with the 4th pick. With the 4th pick they need to pick whoever is available between TRob, MKG, and Drummond.

Why doesn't anyone think the Cavs should pick Andre Drummond at center? And why do they need another guard in this draft? They're not going to be competing next season no matter who they draft and guards are way easier to find than centers, especially with Drummond's upside. Varejao isn't the long term solution for them.



They weren't that far off from the 8th seed for awhile... then realized they wouldn't get it.

The East division is weak as heck. They can compete in 2 years for an 8th seed spot.

Rivers isn't going that high. If they do that they are stupid. My bet is still on Beal. He's young, athletic, and a great scorer. I still doubt they with take Kidd-Gilchrist because he is a F and they need a G. :P


I completely agree. That's just what the rumors been. Course in honesty, heard that back when Rivers still was "just out of the lottery", as a 24th for them...

But they need scoring bad. I'll comment on the Gibson debateable here.

Gibson... the only person in the world that thinks Gibson can play beside himself is LeBron, and thats why Gibson is still in NBA.

Yes and I agree they'll be competing 2 years from now, but 2 years from now isn't next season.

Also as a Cavs fan, what's your opinion on Manny Harris? I heard he has some potential.

For some reason (i don't know why) I have a feeling that Sullinger will fall to the 15th or so pick........maybe the Rockets will have a chance.....they say that cause of how he performed at the NBA Comebine. He had too much body fat I think-and a sore back maybe. So he may be the faller. Rokcets shuld either get him or Zeller cause they need a Big Man badly-----they never had a good Center these days since Yao and McGrady were gone. Still don't know why McGrady left Houston.......but anyways...........my draft pics (1-5

Hornets-Anthony Davis
Bobcats-Thomas Robinson
Wizards-Bradley Beal
Cavs-MKG
Kings-Drummond


I'll give the others later, 1 thing for sure, I'm exactly 100% sure that Lillard will be a Raptor. and Barnes will be a GS Warrior.

I was not impressed... I think he got overhyped a la Steve Novak.

Cavs, we got Irving money, dude's HOF material
Tristan Thompson will be an all-star some day, and Gee and varejo are worth holding onto... Jamison needs to go, Gibson needs to go.

The rest... are embarrassing, like... Charlotte Bobcats embarrassing.

They need 2 guys that can come in from their 1st round picks and drop double digits on a nightly basis, as well as play some defense.

You're "100% sure" that Lillard will be a Raptor and Barnes will be a GS Warrior? I'm not "100% sure" Anthony Davis will be a Hornet. Maybe the Hornets trade their #1 overall pick? (Not likely but who knows?) Maybe Anthony Davis has a career threatening injury just days before the draft. You can never be "100% sure" of basically anything when it comes to the NBA.

He had back spasms and injuries ever since '05, I believe, and ever since '07, he hasn't been the T-Mac of old. Then we decided to trade him to the Knicks, who later on traded him to the Hawks.

All of you have the Bobcats taking Robinson, however they just recently worked out Beal and loved him. Every NBA team is actually in love with Beal and many are trying to trade up to # 2 to get him. So honestly, I would not be surprised to see Beal go #2 with Robinson going to him hometown team, the Wizards.

think they need Robinson more than Beal, I have beal going to Stupid Wizards Logo. I've heard Rumors that the Rockets are about to try to trade up for a top 10 caliber pick. I also heard that they may try to get Gasol, killing their chances of any draft prospect......IDK what going on, any other Houstonian know?
