They are doing a good job. They swung for the fences with Bynum and struck out but hey it's more Bynum's fault than theirs. They gave him a chance and he blew it.

Other than that, they have a decent young team and are acquiring pieces to go with Kyrie Irving. Oh wait Bennet is a bust. Getting two #1 overall picks and being still bad is kind of tough to do. Maybe they earn a C for effort, this draft was tough to guess. A whole lot of teams passed on likley ROY winner MCW.

Instead of trying to get all cute and draft Bennett, they should have drafted a sure thing in Otto Porter who would've gave you a good starting SF.

Ha, like his 2.3 scoring average is gonna help this team. I would venture to say Bennett will be a better pro than Otto, and the small forward the Cavs pick up in a trade this year or sign in the off season will be miles above what Porter can do.

I've watched all but two cavs games this season, and I'll say this: Kyrie is sweet (duh), and we'll have him locked up til 2020; he's not a superstar, but he'll get there soon. Dion will get better too, he has flashes of brilliance out there on the court, just makes boneheaded decisions (much like Kyrie has this season). Bynum's done/gone, Andy's old and can only get boards now, Bennett just whoa but he'll be a decent player at some point in his career (maybe like 12 and 7 one season?), Zeller is eh but his development has been stifled by the rotation up to this point. Everyone else on the team sucks, Jack is poop and this team needs to clear cap space for next summer. It's sad that this team can't talk about their future without the thought of LeBron looming in the background, and as a result of his decision, everyone worrying about Kyrie leaving. This season has been abysmal, the Cavs looked really good on paper, and are still sweet in 2k. The conference is **** though so hopefully they can pull something together

Pretty sure he just came back from his injury; he hasn't even played a full season but ok hahaha. And to say Bennett will be a better pro is weird considering Bennett is averaging 2.5 PPG and has played more games than Porter but ok :lol:

People understood Anthony Bennett was a gamble based on potential. Pre-draft, he looked like a heavier, raw Carmelo Anthony. I'm not sure if he's mentally NBA ready or ever will be. Sometimes gambles work out, and other times people get Ed Curry's. I would have made the same bet though.
