It be tempting, time to move on though

Yeah, that would never happen and it isn't like we won a championship with him anyhow.

The Heat wouldn't accept that offer. Assume Irving and Kanter for LeBron? No thanks.

Damn...I was happy when Sully decided to stay. Now that the ping pong balls popped our way, I wish he'd have declared. Irving and Sully would make a great pair.

Since we're assuming, can we also assume the 45 million hard cap for next year?

To answer the question, no, I would not take him back. He's the best player in the league, but he's an epic douche.

Sully is an interesting one. He seems undersized for where he plays... so i don't know how he translates to the nba game.

Agreed. He plays like a freakin' man though, so who knows. I think he'll probably be pretty good, won't be the dominator he is on the college level though.

Yeah, a lot of people did, that's just normal "hometown" hype. Same that's going on with Diebler, though not to the same extent.

And about Sully...

Let's be honest, the Cavs will probably be in the lottery again next season. So the possibility is still there. Plus Barnes will be available, Henson, Zeller, and whoever(they don't matter) else will be out there.

I wasnt sure what to think of Cook. I dont know what his season stats were but I'd be shocked if that guy averaged more than 5 pts a game, I expected a little more from him than that

Next years class is supposed to be stacked. Most of the top talent in that draft is still in high school

Should be a good draft next year, and don't forget, we could see high school players be allowed to make the jump again. I hear the '12 class is stacked with high school talent--especially big men.

Just my opinion, very similar in the way they use positioning and their bodies. Also, most people don't know that Jared has a great face up game and a nice stroke, he can post up but he could also pick and pop at the next level which is critical since almost every team runs nothing but pick and roll.

He's definitely talented. I think his ceiling is higher than Love's, so I wouldn't be shocked if you're right.

Sully wouldn't be a center in the NBA. In fact, he'll be moving to his natural position, PF, this year for the Bucks.

He does have a very nice face up game, but he never really needed to use it last season.

I think he'll be a very good player in the NBA because he works hard and uses his size to get great position.. I'm thinking a 17/10 type player once he hits his ceiling.

I agree with you analysis but who said he would be a center? lol
