Garland(who most of us probably never heard of due to injury last year) can shooooooot

Windler(a lefty shooter who was drawing Korver compariosons).

and Kevin Porter Jr. is being labeled a steal for the Cavs,a scorer who fell due to immaturity.

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?

So, supposedly Sexton is  PG...though I am not always sure he acts like one.    Who would be the pick out of this Top Dozen.

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.

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.

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

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.

@clevfan4life said:

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. 

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...

And getting the young guys experience.....Colin Sexton et al

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

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

LeBron is in semi-retirement.    Dumping JR and now Korver shows that the Cavs are going for the #1 pick.

Barrett is a good looking player too.

The Cavs would be kind of relevant next year if they could land either of those two.
