That is a shame. It looked like if he stayed in that he could rise up and go top 9 which in-turn could push a guy down to us who we might not have expected to have a shot at.

Whew. Thank God. Thought we'd end up drafting him.

Now if Olynyk and Gobert would pull out, so I didn't have to worry about us drafting them, that would be great (also not realistic)

Workouts: Lorenzo Brown (NCS), Rodney Williams (MIN), James Southerland (SYR), Colton Iverson (CSU), Tony Woods (UO) and Kenny Boynton (FLA)

No Pierre Jackson today, as was expected today.

That is disappointing. He is one of my favorite second round targets. Wonder why? Draft promise? Not likely.

James Southerland just went 17 for 25 from 3, and was almost perfect from the corners. Not too shabby.

Colton Iverson, 7-footer from Colo St, may have been a defensive force in the tourney but he was stroking corner 3s like Danny Green

Shabazz Muhammad met with the Jazz today but did not work out due to an injury

 

[santeesioux]

What ever happened to him working out here?

What ever happened to him working out here?

I tweeted Chris Haynes the other day about it and got no answer.

Steve Luhm ‏@sluhm 1m
Shabazz Muhammad in a boot for a sprained ankle, which is why he didn't work out today for the Jazz. Says he'll be O.K.

Makes wonder where that happened

10 days 21 minutes until the draft (as of this posting).

It can't come fast enough.

KUDOS to everyone here for not killing each other while we wait. Yet.

 

[illmatic99]

Just can't get excited about this draft. Just looking at last year, 10 days before the draft, we had 150 pages in the draft thread.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

With about a week left and they really haven't brought in many lotto guys. Outside these four they've mainly brought in late 1st/second rounders.

Cody Zeller
Caldwell-Pope
Alex len
Olynyk

They brought in McCollum on the 10th. Other than that you are right.
Hopefully this week they will have Shabazz in (If he is out of his boot) Anyone else supposed to drop to our vicinity?

LOL, just shows how bad this draft is with so little to fight about - sorta sad

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Hearing that C Alex Len, who visited with #Pelicans on Friday, is now the likely choice for #Cavs at No. 1 spot in next week's draft. -- @ jimmysmith504

Lame ass draft.......can't wait til next years!

Godamn this draft is pathetic lol.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

should we do a thread on the tier thingy with bpa and whatever? (remember something like that from last year

as in if a player from tier one falls, we take him regardless of position, but when choosing in a tier, you take the best fit

tier one?
len
noel
oladipo
mclemore
porter
bennett
burke

 

[handiman]

Good luck coming up with a consensus on more than one tier. While #1 might be better than #20, there will be huge disagreement on where the cutoffs are in between.

imo tier one is pretty clearly defined, maybe lose burke

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

According to Haynes (via Courtside) Adams and Gobert will be in town this week.

'Tone loves Adams.

 

[handiman]

In addition to Burke, you've got Len who is either #1 or still available at #10, so I disagree. And the order to most of the top 10 is more or less random from one mock to the next.

No way Len is there at pick 10. If you want him then you would have to trade up to get him.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

guess i have interpreted the mocks to, in general, have those 6-7 guys higher than the rest

Tier 1 is Len, and only Len.

You want me to start posting?

1 year, 10 days, 21 minutes to go to the next one!

Lame ass draft.......can't wait til next years!

When we have no pick. Olshey got us bad subs so we'd be in the bottom 12 this season, not next. Thanks Olshey!
