WOW Okoro to the Cavs. Thought they'd go for a big for sure. Went for the best defender instead. Good for them.

I wish I could give you a million and1’s for this comment

Issac Okoro could be good for Cleveland.

I really liked PatWill in the 8-10 range. He has prototypical SF size. Smart kid. If he turns out to be a star it doesn't matter if they pick him at 4 or 20.
I like the Okoro pick too for the Cavs.

Don’t think he’s a reach?


He's a reach if you're factoring all the mocks, but teams knew he could go anywhere after the third pick. A lot of the teams that were trying to trade up wanted him.

It's on a delay. He actually did want to go to the Cavs.

I think there was a delay. Melo had headphones on, so maybe he heard before everyone else. Because nobody reacted until a few seconds after Melo started smiling.


After seeing the reaction of Okoro's family, that's clearly what's going on. There's a delay and the family doesn't know why the player gets up, which is a bit awkward.

Cavs stay trash at drafting

Why do they such adversity to following convention.

Toppin AND avdija both where available.

If you're Detroit and the Knicks you feel good about getting either Halliburton or Hayes.

He is awful defensively and his movement is very stiff.

After seeing 7, the Knicks got a couple good options to look at!

Just looking at the kid's frame makes me think he would turn into a f#%ing MONSTER in Miami. I hope Chicago's new FO can do the same.
