    I thought I saw it was only 7-10 days?

    Shut
    Him
    Down
    Sign Hollins and start him at PG
    Thanks.

    He has ROY wrapped up, nothing else to play for at this point.

    Cavs might lose out and it still wont be enough to catch Washington, NO and Charlotte. The 4 spot gives em a shot at a top 2

    He has no offensive ability at all, and I don't have any interest in taking a 5 year project.

    Who do you like? Just curious

    Phelps just said that Byron has discussed shutting Kyrie down

    Im wanting MKG or Beal.

    I know we need a wing, but I'd take Davis over anybody.

    I think I used these exact words about a week ago. Not sure what the hell they were thinking bringing him back.

    +1. Trade T^2 or Varejao for a wing.

    Is the order for non lottery round 1 picks based just on record or does playoff result have anything to do with it? Lakers are just ahead of many teams, if they struggle the Cavs could move up several spots with that pick.

    I thought it went by playoffs....then overall record was the second in determining

    Buy 1/Get 1 Free seats available through Midnight tonight for the 4/25 game against the Wizards (Fan appreciation night)
    Looks like it applies to lower ends/corners, and upper baseline.

    I know it's that way in the nfl but didn't the Cavs take Eyenga with the last pick in round 1? Unless they had that pick from a trade it was because they had the best record that year.

    Yeah...I am not sure at all

    I want a 2 and a 3 with the 2 first round picks. We need starters at both spots in my opinion. In the order I like them by position:

    SG: J-Lamb, Beal, Ross (pretty big drop off after him), Jenkins, D-Lamb
    SF: Barnes, MKG, T-Jones, Harkless, P-Jones

    My top 5 overall wish list would be Lamb, Anthony Davis, Beal, Barnes, Ross.
  • Mulva
    Toronto smacked Philly around tonight. Raptors have 20 wins now.
  • lhslep134
    To me a perfect first 3 picks (assuming we stay at 5, 26, 33), based on availability on DraftExpress.com's 2012 mock would be:

    5. Brad Beal
    26. Draymond Green
    33. CJ Leslie
  • dave
    I'm hoping for
    Beal
    Melo
    Doron Lamb
    Darius Miller

    Not sure about Miller, he could go either way. Either a sleeper playing behind so much talent every year or just the opposite. Curious to see how he grades out predraft.
  • hoops23
    NO wins tonight... They now have 14 wins to the Cavs 17...

    There may be a chance to catch those guys.
  • wes_mantooth

    Nice. Kyrie has taken over several 4th quarters so this doesn't really surprise me.

    Yeah, he has to out of necessity. More impressive is that OKC has two guys in the top 5. That makes them scary in the 4th quarter.

    Yep. Miami not so much. It's telling though, because Miami (for the most part) gets stale late in close games.

    Yeah, I don't miss that part of his game.
