Wayne has been solid for us thus far. I'd love to keep him here.

If Noel is there when we pick, we take him. We need an interior defensive presence when the pick and roll D is so horrid.

No.

We need defense all over the court, though. The perimeter D is just as pathetic.

Dion was awesome. He didnt back down from Wade, he went right at him.

If you are worried about him coming back from injury and being the same, I think he will be fine.
If you are worried about him being an injury prone player, I dont think you need to worry. Its not like he was cutting and tore his ACL; he smacked it off of the damn basket support.

It just seems like a risk that the Cavs cant afford to take right now

I'll take NN with our 2nd 1st rounder. Other than that, no injury prone players.

Kyrie also didn't rip his ACL.

I was, but I haven't seen him play in a couple months. He looked real good to start the year, though.

Haven't seen much of him but what I have was impressive. Guys on RCF follow him more and blast the guards at Maryland for not knowing how to play with a true 7 footer. Think that if teams go purely on stats he could drop in the draft because of his non-dominant performance. But with guys like Kyrie/Dion he could thrive.

I'm torn on Noel even before the injury. He fits a definite defensive need but is so raw (more than Anthony Davis) on offense. And how will he play with Tristan on offense? We've seeen Tristan blossom with a center who has to be guarded away from the basket because he can hit a jump shot. With Noel on offense the center can cheat off him and double team Tristan therefore taking away another option.

I probably sound like a broken record by now but I'd take Otto Porter with our pick and look at Isaiah Austin with our second pick. Dude is rail thin but atheltic and a shot blocking presence. I saw somewhere that said Austin has wingspan of 7'4". Even if he gets backed down his leaping/blocking ability would make people think twice shooting over him.

Dion with another great game. 25 points on 10-16 shooting as the Cavs beat the Bulls without Kyrie.

Dion's shooting 52.3% in February and now over 40% for the full year. Just shows how poorly he started the season. Can't wait to see what an offseason of refining his game will do. His jumper is much improved from the beginning of the year and he has gotten so much better at deciding where to take his shots.
