Is Irvin The Weakest Number 1 Pick Ever??

[jjgold]

He has to be

[onacloud]

couldn't agree more this draft is pathetic

[InTheDrink]

Joke post jj

Pervis Ellison will never be outdone.

[Powderguy]

Irving is...not sure who Irvin is

[VegasInsider]

Tough to tell considering we've only see him play 11 games.

I think he'll end up being a Derrick Rose type. Cleveland should be able to build a franchise around him

[thejrichshow85]

not even close



the candy man was the weakest

[sneak-a-peak]

ya im certainly not impressed

[starfire]

Irvin is Weak

[VegasInsider]

Wasn't Kwame Brown a number one pick too?

[yisman]

Cleveland drafted Michael Irvin!!!?!!??!?!?!

Now that's a real bombshell. Was this what firedawg was talking about?

[G's pks]

he is no Lebron...but that might be a good thing...they do not need another backstabbing loser...

[onlooker]

Derrick Williams will be ROY. Cavs fuked up.

yeah i was gonna say kwame brown by a mile.

kyrie irving is good just very unproven and as far as him being like derrick rose- i dont think hes strong enough. hopefully he can stay healthy so we can get a look at him...mosta his highlight videos are him against highschool kids.

[neverstoppers23]

I wouldn't go that far, he is going to be a great player his value is high. In any draft he would be a top pick to act like he is such a terrible is wrong. He has a nice smooth jump shoot, a pure point guard. I think it has a lot to do with him being injured and no one being able to watch him.
I still like Derek Williams too, but it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Irving being an all star in yearss to come . And scoring 18-25 point range his rookie year.

Touché. Kwame wins.

And actually ive seen irving and Chris Paul play in college and was more impressed with Irving. Kids lightning and has skills.

[thejrichshow85]

K.brown was and still is pretty bad but i still think hes better than
Michael Olowokandi was.

[Monitor-Tan]

With picks 1 and 4, and plenty of guards in the draft, knowing you need a forward or a center.. Why not pick derek williams as ur first pick and then pick a guard with ur 4th...

Hes not as fast or athletic as rose , but he has a much better jump shot. And he is a pure point guard, he knows when to shoot, hes not a westbrook type point guard(not that's a bad thing)

Kwame Brown.

Obviously they believe Irving is in a class all to himself in the guards

[Monitor-Tan]

I think taking Derek Williams as #1, and then taking Kemba or Jimmer at 4, would suit them better as they will have GO TO GUY. They have no potential player that can take over a game.. they need one real bad.. With those 2 picks you have potentially 2...

[starfire]

Booooooo!
Jan Vesley?????
3rd Euro player drafted...
I'm sick of these Europeans

[zam77]

goldbond how can you just assume he isn't going to be a stud? Guy has the potential to be all star caliber... Isn't that all you can ask for in this draft?

[wiffle]

6 of the first 7 are foreigners

[jjgold]

I never heard of most of these guys

Mainly foreign born

[Monitor-Tan]

I'm going to be REAL disappointed if the Denver Thuggets, don't pick some thugged up college kid with off court troubles..

[onlooker]

Mainly foreign born

Shows how weak this draft is.

Foreign players dominating top part of the draft. Like the Wiz and Bobcats pick... And of course the T-Wolves taking the homie Derrick Williams from 'Zona....

the mistake was not the cavs giving irving a chance, it was not taking williams 1. there are plety of point guards in the league and in the draft. huge mistake. lebrons probably laughing at them.

williams does everything. and well.

[nosniboR11]

and you wonder why the nba will be locked out

what do you expect from clev tho, stupid

[AMBlai01]

he will be only an average NBA player...at best.

[king]

I guess some people are happy they are not draft pick 1. Who wants to play for Cleveland they aint going no where next season. Also Kyle doesn't have enough stats to prove he is really number 1. Kemba Walker on the other hand does and is the better guard. I also feel that Nolan Smith was better then him and should of been top 10.

[Grits n' Gravy]

You get the feeling a lot of teams draft a guy just because they have to pick somebody. When the draft dorks are comparing top 10 picks to being a Kirelenko type of player you know they are screwed.
