    The young PG talent in the league right now is incredible.

    WoW. Solid pick. I hope Thompson gets better and justifies his pick too. In the meantime Jamison and Varejao are playing solid. They have 5 wins on the roadd.

    I've been saying this. Kyrie Irving is a franchise player now. Blake Griffin not so much.

    A post player is cannot be the primary franchise player unless he can entirely dominate the defensive end (the way Howard WAS a year or 2 ago). Offensive-leaning "franchise" big men will always at most be a 2nd tier star.

    How do you say his name? Kee-ree? Kaiy-ree? Kee-Riyay?

    Anyway, I like his spin moves. His handles are better than Jordan Hill's.

    Maybe they could trade down in the draft for a solid bench scorer and draft Jeremy Lamb.

    I still can't believe they drafted Tristan Thompson over Jonas Valanciunas. A big, young 3 of Irving, Lamb, and Valanciunas would be nice to build around.

    I pretty mute all basketball mixes now. I haven't been keeping track but I'd imagine requiem for a dream and anything with YOUNG MONAYYYY shouted repeatedly have been used extensively.

    Maybe they can throw huge money at James Harden.

    Well IMHO draftng TT so high really hurt Cleveland's chances. If only they took the BPA and got Valanciunas they would be set next year with essentially 2 lottery picks.

    The good news for them si Irving seems to be in the Dirk/TD/Rose mode of becoming a superstar rather than Lebron/CP3/DHoward. Rather than wanting to go to a big market/contender, Irving seems to really want to make the Cavs successful. Props to him for not falling to superstar-itis desease that seems so prevalent these days.

    Cleveland is putting all their focus on crowning Irving King and tell themselves, "LeBron who?"
