Dyin' for Zion
-
He’s been looking like the next lebron since he was 16. The CAVS would be very fortunate to win the lottery.
Barrett is a good looking player too.
The Cavs would be kind of relevant next year if they could land either of those two.
-
But can he dunk?
-
Zion looks like the real deal. Hopefully Lebron wins a chip in L.A. then comes back for his last couple of years with Zion to win one more for cleveland.
-
LeBron is in semi-retirement. Dumping JR and now Korver shows that the Cavs are going for the #1 pick.

There is nothing else to play for. They should try for the 1st pick.

That too. I wonder who they will get to coach this team next year?
Gilbert isn’t the greatest owner to work for as a head coach

Barrett or Zion....?
-
I don't watch much NCCA basketball, but is zion much of a shooter? Seems to me he's a different kind of player than LeBron...not that long stretch 3 nigga but more a legit 4 like Blake Griffin, but with better dribbles than Blake.
-
you draft zion IF you can put an elite PG behind him, who can also score, and a legit center that can take the heavy lifting off him. If you draft him only to make him do ALL the paint work...it isn't going to work. I would wait to see where the Cavs will pick, and if they get the 1...trade Kevin for those pieces you can put around zion.

Zion’s working on his jumper, it has potential for sure, but isn’t polished. He’s like Lebron from a physical aspect. But a more tankier left handed version of LBJ. Beast in the paint.

Collin Sexton is starting to look like the PG of the future. He’s only 20 and is having a solid rookie campaign. The other night I was able to watch them play the Heat(shot 11-17 with 27 points 6 assists). His floater was beautiful. He hit about 5 of them in a row over shot blockers. He was flashing some range, knocking down some 3s as well.
Cam Reddish is really growing on me, a 6’8” small forward who can shoot and get to the basket and score...
-
It is hilarious watching the talking heads on TV who are slobbering all over themselves thinking that Zion would be going to the Knicks or Lakers, or ever the Hawks......and not one mention being made of the fact that the Cavs are one of 3 teams that have the best chance to get the #1 pick for the rights to draft Zion.
I would love it to happen so that these shitheads would have to eat their turds.
Of course, the question may be: what underhanded shenanigans do you think the NBA could pull to insure that one of the "big market" teams gets that first pick.
-
And shenanigans occurred we got 5th. New Orleans with Zion and Anthony Davis now. Scary. Of course they could still trade AD
-
Pelicans #1, Memphis #2, Knicks #3, Lakers #4, Cavs #5.
When I saw that both the Knicks and the Lakers were going to be in the Top 4.....I really thought that the conspiracy could have been in.
I am just glad that the "small markets" New Orleans and Memphis got the Top 2 if the Cavs could not have gotten one of them. And at #5...they can still get a damned good player. Maybe that guy from Virginia. All he did was lead his team to a national Championship, which not even Zion could do.
And I believe that it could happen that Anthony Davis could now stay in N.O. I think he would be stupid not to want to......unless, like LeBron, he has non-basketball reasons to want to go to LA. (But AD is a butt ugly dude with no personality...just game. He would have no business wanting the "Hollywood" lifestyle.

Here is there current roster...or at least the one from this past season. (some are out...some will be out):
Here is the Cavaliers’ current roster, with position, age, height/weight and college in parentheses.
Deng Adel, SF, age 22, 6-7/200 (Louisville)
Jaron Blossomgame, SF, age 25, 6-8/220 (Clemson)
Marquese Chriss, PF, age 21, 6-10/240 (Washington)
Jordan Clarkson, PG, age 26, 6-5/194 (Missouri)
Matthew Dellavedova, PG, age 28, 6-4/200 (Saint Mary's)
Channing Frye, PF, age 35, 7-0/255 (Arizona) (I believe he has retired, no?)
John Henson, F, age 28, 6-11/219 (North Carolina)
Brandon Knight, PG, age 27, 6-3/195 (Kentucky)
Kevin Love, PF, age 30, 6-10/251 (UCLA)
Larry Nance Jr., PF, age 26, 6-9/230 (Wyoming)
David Nwaba, SG, age 26, 6-4/219 (Cal Poly)
Cedi Osman, SF, age 24, 6-8/215 (None)
Collin Sexton, PG, age 20, 6-2/190 (Alabama)
J.R. Smith, SG, age 33, 6-6/225 (None) did not play at all last year...unlikely to this year either
Nik Stauskas, SG, age 25, 6-6/205 (Michigan)
Tristan Thompson, C, age 28, 6-10/238 (Texas)
Ante Zizic, C, age 22, 6-11/254 (None)
To me...a Small Forward could be in order. Barrett likely gone, so Reddish or Hunter?
-
Cam Reddish! He can shoot and has good athleticism! Although a Center isn't out of the question.
-
So what about the Cavs draft?
