    I like Bennett as a PF -- He's trying to become a "full time" SF though.

    Would happily give them 10 for Kanter. :)

    Cavs options at No. 1, I'm told by league source, are in order: Noel, Len or trade.

    my guess is that they want to move up higher, probably depends as much does who is there

    Based on the combination of my WARP projections and my own scouting, here's my subjective draft board: twitpic.com/cziqmx

    McCollum @5
    KCP @ #6
    Zeller @ #8
    Adams @ #11

    agreed, maybe targeting Burke, and need to get ahead of N.O. at 6, so would maybe include him for a top 5 pick. Really, if I am almost any team in the top 5, I'd do it. Orlando, 2 for Kanter? Charlotte, 4 for Kanter.

    If Oladipo is gone, Phoenix may look to move down a bit in hopes of picking up another asset and still getting their #2 target, Cody Zeller


    That would mean with POR, as it sure looks like Zeller would be the guy there at #10....

    There usually are a couple of trades in the 2 days preceding the draft. Nothing in this one. Maybe TNT (they still doing it?) have in their contract that the league office withholds any draft day news, letting TNT announce news at the start of the show (1 1/2 hours from now at predraft show or in 2 hours at draft).

    Cavs continuing to shop the 1st pick. No takers so far. Cleveland might have to lower the price to deal it. #NBADRAFT

    This has become obvious....

    Utah's interest in moving up, particularly for McCollum, seems to be vastly overstated, teams in the top-10 are telling me.

    Two comments on Kanter rumors. First, let the day play out before you react to rumors


    meaning? might be moved? no way he is being moved?

    If he's there, I bet Flip takes Trevor Mbakwe with that 52nd pick late in 2nd round

    Zeller also has a lot of fans in Charlotte's front office, but there's only one guy calling the shots there: MJ. Would he take him at #4?


    If POR wants KCP or McCollum to drop to them, then I think they need a team to take Zeller before them...or...a surprise "where the hell did that come from" pick...like Karasev.

    Anthony Bennett is your slider right now due to weight issues. That could be smoke. But there is concern. Can't see him past Detroit at 8.
