I'd be ok with the latest mock from DraftExpress:
MKG
Nicholson (I'd be alright with White or Q Miller here as well)
Barton (rather see Lamb with this pick)
Plumlee

Royce White impressed me both on and off the court at the combine today.

Yeah, he said he has it under control with the help of his mom, doctor, and most importantly the love of his son.
He was very well spoken

Nice. If that's the case if take a serious look at him at 24. His skillset is fantastic.ohiobucks1;1207429 wrote:Yeah, he said he has it under control with the help of his mom, doctor, and most importantly the love of his son.

Saw that Robinson worked Drummond during their Cavs workout the other day. Hopefully this means the Cavs stay away from Drummond at 4.
There is a rumor that the Cavs are in talk with GSW about the 7th pick

T-Rob is gonna be a beast in the NBA. His style is more suited for the NBA than college, and he tore up college.

No because I don't think T-Rob will be a great pro.

I saw something on a friend's twitter, not anything credible, that the Cavs might be looking at giving Varajeo to Sac for their pick and Dallas' pick somehow. I dont know if he pulled it out of his ass or what, because I havent heard anything about that.

Mainly because I think he will get beat consistently on defense. I don't think he has good enough feet in the post. I like him as a player in college but I don't think he's going to be a great pro.

Def agree about his defense..he's not a good post defender, at all. For how quick he is, he gets beaten quite a bit in the post. Just luckily had Withey behind him most of the time to cover that up.
And I'm not saying I want the Cavs to take him..becuase we have a 4. Just saying he's going to be really good wherever he goes.

He VERY well could be. It's just my opinion and I'm def no talent evaluator.

I had a huge argument today w/ some Chicago fans
I said I'd take Kyrie Irving over Derrick Rose on my team right now...they're ready to check me into a mental institute
Am I that crazy to think that?

Irving is 20 and Rose is 23 so Irving has a bit more youth on his side. Now I know that Kyrie has been banged up a bit but Rose, at least to me, seems like an "old" 23. Seems like he's constantly injured. Not really sure what his NBA shelf life will be.SportsAndLady;1209485 wrote:I had a huge argument today w/ some Chicago fans

I dont know if id currently take Kyrie over D Rose. I mean D Rose did just win an MVP. But, I would most certainly take the type of PG Kyrie is over D Rose any day of the week(like a steve nash)

Kyrie is a true PG IMO. Rose is a tweener.BR1986FB;1209495 wrote:Irving is 20 and Rose is 23 so Irving has a bit more youth on his side.

Are you saying you would take D Rose over Irving if you had to win a title THIS year? Because I said I'd take D Rose over Irving if I had one year to win something.Rotinaj;1209510 wrote:I dont know if id currently take Kyrie over D Rose.
My point was if I could swap Irving for D rose, I wouldn't.

Irving is a better ballhandler, shooter, floor general, and smarter player. Rose is the better jumper and athlete... Both are super fast, but Rose is a bit quicker/explosive.
I'd take Kyrie over Rose... I'd also take CP3 and DWill over Rose.

Obviously at this point you have to take Rose. If Kyrie progresses the way he looks like he will, then in 2-3 years the answer could be very different.
