His athleticism, scoring and feel for the game put him above many others. He'll be a lottery pick for sure and likely a good player in the NBA. He does remind me of a Pau Gasol.

Irving/Livingston
Waiters/Ellington/Miles
Porter/Gee/Miles
Thompson/Varejao
Zeller/Olynyk

That's a young core that can really grow together, and is not an unrealistic draft/offseason by any means.


If you want to waste his talent behind Zeller, you guys don't deserve it. Additionally, drafting Zeller instead of a stud like Mo Harkless goes to show that the Cavs will probably draft a scrub.

Pfft whatever, I made a simple mistake. Either way drafting any UNC role players that year was a mistake. Why would you draft waiters when you could have Drummond or Harkless. Anyways, Olynyk will be a way better player than Cody Zeller, and tragically he won't get drafted as high.

Waiters was a consensus better player among the NBA draftniks and apparently GMs. Your hindsight is 20/20 though, congrats!

Please, I thought Harkless was a stud, but there is no way to prove that to you so whatever.
