Also, you do realize the guy is 6'8 right?jordo212000;806933 wrote:I don't see the sense. Never said he couldn't shoot. Thought he had things to work on and I think he might struggle against taller defenders who are just as athletic
6'8 is very short for a PF. The guys covering him will be 2-3 inches tallerI see what jordo is saying.

Williams is 6'8. How much taller are these guys defending him?
Very short? You do realize most centers are 6'10/6'11? PF is slightly smaller, 6'8 is about where a PF should be.jordo212000;807089 wrote:6'8 is very short for a PF. The guys covering him will be 2-3 inches taller

hoops23;807176 wrote:Wait, what? That's NOT what he's saying. In fact, it's not even close. He said DWill needs to develop a jumpshot, period. There was no gray area in his inital post. He didn't say anything about shooting over taller guys or creating his own shot until he got called out and proven wrong about his initial statement.
Just look at this:
Please, don't let the spin doctor fool you.
Also, he's 6'9'' and very athletic, I doubt he's going to have trouble creating a shot.
Saying Irving is like Paul is very valid. Irving is not like Rose or Westbrook where they are superb athletes and jumping out of the gym. Irving is more of a pure point guard like Paul but with more height and still a great athlete.sportswizuhrd;807216 wrote:Caller on ABAO says the Cavs should take Irving and Alec Burks from Colorado at 1 and 4. He says Irving is just like Chris Paul. Not agreeing with this at all.

Where are you reading this?KR1245;807409 wrote:This. I know that there are quite a few people who seem to think he will be the best Euro big in the draft. I know that he has an interesting contract situation
Anyways, looks like the Cavs are starting to open up the Rudy Gay talks again
According to Amico the Cavs have also talked to the Hawks about Josh Smith
Alot of rumors out there right now, Thursday should be interesting
