Wrong. If I'm Irving, I'm tripping over my own feet at every turn to avoid being drafted by the Cavs, and falling to the Jazz. LOL

How is this wrong? Do you think their "professional" advising agents are giving them crappy advice? I'm as right as they get, dude and it doesn't even hurt this time.

This says $900,000 from 3rd to 1st, but if he shows how slow he is and drops to 12 through 20th it's a whole lot more. Also, paying 50% taxes on $4 million for three years leaves you with $6 million. Do the same with a $1 million contract and you don't have a huge golden parachute.

I wouldn't work out if I were Kanter, knowing I'm all bark and no bite.

*Slow clap*
 
looks like the wolves will pick kanter... (gottlieb on espn). it doesn't make sense for the wolves to take williams, they already have beasley and other similar players. kanter can still come from the bench and get his 30 minutes. expect him to send milicic to the bench short after the season starts. kanter and love might not be the best defending duo, but arguably the best rebounding frontcourt in the nba.

I predict Gottlieb is wrong.
 
most realistic scenario:

1 - irving
2 - kanter
3 - williams
4 - vesely
5 - valanciunas

the only possibility of b. knight in the top five is the jazz picking him. this means kanter goes as the 4th pick to the cavs and the fifth pick will be valanciunas to the raptors. i think vesely is the second best international player in this draft after kanter.

Without it, he can easily be a 3 pick. With it, he could drop from the top 10.

Only way this happens is if during drills the weak ligaments in his knees buckle under the sheer weight of his massive noggin, while simultaneously pooping himself.
 
Kanter looked good in the brief drills they showed. I was really impressed with Marshon Brooks. He can dunk so easily with no effort and his jumper looked like butter. Faried showed good energy, but I wouldn't want to see him shoot outside of 10'. He put up some major league bricks. Jimmer didn't look excited to be there and looked like was slacking. Chris Singleton had the best block of the combine when they did three on three drills. He would be a steal at 12. I don't understand why they showed the announcers more than the players. I can't wait to see what Kantner measures at tomorrow.
 
No to Tyler anywhere. Drafting Brooks anywhere outside of the 2nd round is a nutty reach.
