If Irving goes #1 to Cleveland, my bet would be that Minnesota's going to pick Kanter #2. Why in the world would they draft another SF/PF right now? They already have Michael Beasley (the #2 overall pick in the 2008 draft) at SF and Kevin Love (the #5 overall pick in the 2008 draft) at PF. Both...

Please explain.

I realized that they are not really that much better than the Jazz. Oklahoma City in particular. They have absolutely no offensive strategy whatsoever. All they do is give the ball to Russell Westbrook, have him drive to the basket, and either try to score or pass it out to their shooters on the...

That's not what I was saying. Brandon Knight would be the future of the Cavs at PG. However, Knight probably is not ready right now to take over as the full-time starter. Until he is, Baron Davis would start. Davis is aging and Knight should be able to take over for him in a year or so.

I actually think that Cleveland would be getting a pretty good trade. They get a sure-thing in Paul Millsap to pair with J.J. Hickson at their SF/PF positions plus they Kanter to be their Center of the future and Knight to be their Point Guard of the future. Knight would eventually take over for...

How about this one? Paul Millsap and the #3 pick to Cleveland for the #1 pick and Anderson Varejao We then select Derrick Williams #1 overall and Cleveland gets #3 for Kanter and #4 for Brandon Knight. We then select Fredette at #12. Utah Depth Chart: PG: Devin Harris, Jimmer...

I would only want the #20 pick if it landed us the #2 pick, as in trading Minnesota #3 and #12 for #2 and #20.

If Cleveland takes Kanter #1, I guarantee you that Minnesota is going to draft Kyrie Irving. The Timberwolves' biggest need is at PG and Irving would fill a huge hole for them. That would leave US Derrick Williams. I actually think that Cleveland could go this way if they think that they can get...

It probably would have to be a trade that would land the Timberpups an allstar-quality player.

I watched part of the NBA Draft Combine today. Enes Kanter looks like great prospect at the C position. If the Timberwolves are happy with Michael Beasley at SF and Kevin Love at PF, they have a need at C and no need for Williams long-term. I seriously could see them taking Kanter to fill their...

Not because of Jimmer, but because of Derrick Williams.

Interesting.

Chad Ford has Kanter currently ranked as the #3 prospect in his Top 100 players and he lists him as a rising prospect. I hear that if Enes has been eligible to play for Kentucky this season that he would have been the clear #1 overall pick.

If Kanter is that good, I highly doubt that the Timberwolves will pass on him at #2. Especially beings that this will be Minnesota's highest draft pick EVER. They also have a need at Center while not really having one at Point Guard or at Small Forward. If the Timberwolves want to build their...

Why exactly would Williams not be happy in Utah? Is this the whole "Utah being boring and a bad place for Black people to live" stereotype coming out again? He would most certainly be happy if his team was a juggernaut that makes deep runs into the playoffs and consistently wins 50-plus games...

And Mehmet Okur coming back from injury plus Ante Tomic stashed overseas. Our "needs" are at Point Guard and Small Forward.

I would go for Fredette, namely because Leonard will likely be off the board by then. Kawhi would likely be stuck behind C.J., Millsap, and Jeremy Evans for playing time. Fredette could step right in and take over as the back up point guard. His outside shooting ability would be a perfect...

My dream would be to get Williams and start him at the 3. This would allow us to bring Millsap of the bench as the sixth man. Also, if Jimmer is there at the 12 spot, we would be stupid not to take him. One of the Jazz's biggest flaws this last season was the lack of outside shooting. That is...
