Yeah, I mean they were pretty much saying neither Irving nor Williams is good compared to prior number 1 picks. That is some awkward stuff.

I think it's hilarious.

Damn, i was hoping they would pick Kanter to REALLY shake up the draft!!!!

dwill as expected

i expect a trade tho with one of the other wings

i am interested to see who the cavs pick at #4

19 reps at 185, every person in the NFL is just loosing their sh*t right now laughing at that.

draft determined by utah here at #3

ever since van gundy got the glasses, he stopped looking like a sad puppy

Does Utah draft Kanter or Knight? Damn the Cavs could end up with Kanter and Irving...they shouldn't pick that Jonas guy....i think he'll be a BUST.

WOW...they took Kanter!!! Looks like they'll hold onto Devin Harris now...man this is boring so far...i thought they would gamble on Knight! This means Cavs are going to take Valanciunas FOR SURE now, and Toronto will take Brandan Knight....man this is a boring draft so far!!!

great pick by the jazz

Come on Cavs do something crazy with this pick.

jazz could still pick up kemba at 12

jonas is too early at 4
they should trade down
unless they want vesely

This means ONE of their bigs is on their way out...Jefferson or Millsap that is...need to make room for Favors and Kanter as their future front court...Jazz suddenly looking really good...do you think they try and trade Devin Harris for the 5th pick and take Brandan Knight to go along with Hayward, Kanter and Favors?

OH i totally fogot they have ANOTHER PICK!!! Nevermind on that trade then...they can probably trade Devin Harris and Millsap for a Small Forward then...Maybe somebody like...LAMAR ODOM? lol. Most likely they can nab a Rudy Gay/Granger/Iguodala type player for those 2 players....

Yea i agree this Valanciunas guy at 4 is WAYYY too early...i hope the Cavs shake it up a bit!!!

WTF? tristan thompson 4th? WOOOOOOOOW

AND THE CAVS SHOCK THE WORLD!!!! TRISTAN THOMPSON!!! WHAT A GREAT CHOICE!!!! LOL WHAT THE HELL?!?!

ANy chance they're trading this pick?! Wow the draft just got shook up!!! I bet the Bobcats are PISSED now!!!!

I think that is a solid pick slightly early, but they got a future PG & PF combo.

Hickson, Jamison, Thompson...........somebody is on the outs in Cleveland.

harris/millsap on the block so i expect them to get moved

I think Valanciunas is going to fall out of the top 10 now...Raptors HAVE to take Brandon Knight...this is who they wanted!

wtf? valanciunas and bargani? twin towers field day

WOW and the Raptors are officially idiots. This just made the draft REALLY interesting though1!!!

Well apparently the Raptors thought differently.

Yea, he may not even be eligible to play next season because of his contract oversea.
