Sort of worked out for Orlando as well, they were more leaning towards Burke or McLemore while the Cavs are going to be looking at Noel

Poor Charlotte. Screwed again.

Cavs should trade the pick for a proven player.

Scary to think how good OKC could get if they got lucky and got a decent big

Never trade the #1 pick unless you get an amazing deal

This is the weakest draft maybe ever. There are no sure things. The entire lottery could wind up as busts. I'd be trading.

If the draft is that weak then your not going to get many teams trading much for draft picks. Id rather just take the 'gamble' of using the draft pick.

You get the first pick of all the best college players so even in a weak draft you could still get a good player.

It wouldn't look good saying you traded the first pick for just a good player. Would need to be someone who is a fringe all star at the very least.

I give up..... At least we will be the Charlotte Hornets again, so that's a huge win..

Not a bad draft to get screwed over. No consensus number 1 and no superstar names floating around. If Nerlens is the best of the crop, it's a very very average crop.

Am I the only one who thinks Noel is an athletic Shawn Bradley who can only block and not much else.
