    I hope Olshey doesn't overthink this. Go BPA with someone like Bennett.

    I think he has great talents but between the oddness of this draft, being undersized for his position, being from a smaller conference, injuries and other things I think teams will trick themselves out of his talent.

    There will also be deals contingent on player being available when trade partner picks. If player isn't there then the deal could be off.

    We seem poised in a good position to hit a good prospect sliding. I'd take him and run. What if Bennett and McCollum were both there at 10????

    Yea lol. But having Aldridge still on board does hurt those chances as well. If we want to go in full tank mode next years draft is the draft to do it and we need to unload Aldridge soon. Otherwise will be in the late lotto again especially if we get help on our bench.

    I don't have access to these. Is he simply ranking the players, or predicting where they will get drafted based on the teams too?

    After two workouts, N.C. State forward CJ Leslie shut it down w/ teams. He's expected to be selected in 30's. One of draft's top athletes.

    RealGM source: Sergey Karasev left meetings in Russia not just hopeful of top 15 selection in NBA draft, but top 10. tinyurl.com/nmddr4a

    Top 10? That would be a surprise...

    The Cavs have not moved the No. 1 pick but not for lack of trying - and one source says they haven't yet given up doing so.
