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

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

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

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.

Looks like it applies to lower ends/corners, and upper baseline.

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.

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

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.

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.
