Dan gilbert acting like he won something..

You can have the first ten picks and your not cracking top 10 teams in nba

rm18 · 05-17-11, 08:00 PM

Irving is not impressive Eric Bledsoe will have a better career

Yeah. Winning the 1st and 4th pick in the draft is something to be sad about. What a loser.

jgray · 05-17-11, 08:08 PM

It helps. It's not a HR, but it helps. Let's them focus on the future rather than Lebron.

Awilliamson19 · 05-17-11, 08:12 PM

Trade the 1 , 4 , and baron davis to Minnesota for Rubio , Love and the number 2. Then you got something cooookin.

I mean , this is Minnesota and Cleveland we are talking about. ANYTHING is possible.

how can you have the top 10 picks in this draft and not be a top 10 team. that is ridiculous, just irving and/or williams would make any team a lot better. i'll be happy with either tristan thompson or jordan hamilton down at #10 for milwaukee. kemba walker, etc etc there's a lot of potential all-stars in the top 10.

2006 was probably the weakest you still get

They will take Irving, and then Kwai Leonard from SDSU, they will improve a ton next year i say to about 25-30 games, and remember that Indiana only won 37 games, and made the playoffs.

doublej95 · 05-17-11, 09:01 PM

As a Duke fan I feel sorry Irving might end up in Cleveland

Fieldysnuts44 · 05-17-11, 09:07 PM

yeah trade for Ricky Rubio,what a ******* joke

Rubio ain't much.

Awilliamson19 · 05-18-11, 01:24 AM

Where exactly are you basing that statement from? His play in Spain? JJ Barea wasnt much either.. Rubio might not be a star in the league but he would produce at a good rate.. Especially on a team with Kevin Love and a Kemba Walker type player..

Im sure the trade I said will never happen.. It was mostly a joke.. but saying "rubio aint much" is opening a whole new can of worms.. That kid is solid and IF he ever comes to America to play , I think he'll be very productive.. why would he though? Why play for Minnesota? Why not stay in Spain , at home , and make tax free money? Cant blame the kid..

daimoshokage · 05-18-11, 02:06 AM

dan gilbert is racist and without class.. fukk him and the cavs..

fury · 05-18-11, 02:11 AM

Yeah this draft blows and so do the Cavs.

shady610 · 05-18-11, 02:17 AM

Walker and Williams gives them solid talent and people who want to compete. It will also give the fans exciting people to go watch.

They could also make trades now if they have anybody coming off the books

Glitch · 05-18-11, 02:34 AM

you guys are way off- kemba walker and derrick williams and you have a new team instantly. hope they dont grab jimmer. that was huge for them what happened tonight. they will be competitive immediately, especially amongst the weak members of the east.

the draft does blow but some of these guys at the top of it are the real deal; and they get two of them.

daimoshokage · 05-18-11, 02:39 AM

cavs should use their no.1 pick to jimmer..

StraitShooter · 05-18-11, 02:43 AM

all the guys leaving early the past few drafts has watered this one down

Art Vandelay · 05-18-11, 02:49 AM

Give Gilbert a break - he was happy for his disabled kid who brought him the good luck. Not much good fortune with this franchise lately - a nice moment for his family.

icancount2one · 05-18-11, 03:14 AM

Gilbert irks the hell out of me. His team is a joke and it will continue to be for some time. He seems totally unaware that the Cavaliers will only be known as "that team LeBron used to play for" for the next decade or so.

sweethook · 05-18-11, 04:11 AM

just another dreamer

Dirty Sanchez · 05-18-11, 04:49 AM

I think having his child up there with the nervous disorder, and the kid actually pulling down the 1st pick, all considered it was just a great night for the guy

sweethook · 05-18-11, 07:53 AM

he got zero

Now that I totally think is good

As far as any draft pick changing a team?? NO WAY

Dan gilbert is a joke those draft picks won't do much of anything

dumb post. gilbert is a rich man who catered to lequits every last need and did everything he possibly could to bring cleveland a championship while he was here. lequit is the reason they couldn't do it. You don't have the best record in the league and blame the other guys for not winning the championship... you blame the leader. Gilbert may irk you, but he has a greater mission and bigger checkbook than he ever has before and has a lot of things that will be falling into place in the coming year. lequit doesn't get sympothy from players for what gilbert did... because he is a quitter and the league as well as majority of its' players know it.

to say that most people will think of the cavs as the "team lebron used to played for" for is a minority statement at best... it's more like this "the team lebron used to quit for"

moses millsap · 05-18-11, 11:40 AM

this is one of the weakest drafts in a long time, not sure who they'll select at this point
