Assuming this pick is for us - it cements my opinion that EG is a better second round drafter than first round drafter.

Well, at least we can laugh at Charlotte. Not a great trade Micheal Jordan!

Funny, for a team that needs defense, EG goes out and select's the worst defender of all the draftable players in this year's draft.


Somebody pinch me......is this REAL????.....did we just draft McGee??? OMG!! We SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's from Nevada he's 7 foot tall and skinny hopefully he will be traded before the draft is over.

Don't forget about Etan!

That's right, folks - another year of running the Big Three into the ground and getting bounced in the first round. Don't you just love it!

There was no one that would have helped this year! No SF would have played over Mcguire and any PG would have been the 5th guard! Arthur is a 215lb PF = NOT READY, plus he would have been about 4th string PF. I'm officially starting the Javale Mcgee fan club. Members = 1.

I want to wait and see the logic on this one. On one hand, we are trying to become a better playoff team, but on the other hand are we playing for 3-4 years down the road when our window will be closed? EG needs to explain this one. I'm baffled just like I was with Pech, but I didn't know much about him. JavMac seemed like a late first.

I'd rather have stinkin' Mario Chalmers to be our 3rd PG for the next decade than this bum, McGee.

There goes Hickson. Why would we need a bruiser? Oh, I forgot, Etan is coming back.

Add to that he's nowhere near as good as Nick Fazekas, who the Clippers scooped up from the D-League on a 10-day contract.

This draft sucked balls royally.

Cavs front court gets bigger and stronger again. We get a skinny stiff. Maybe there was some way Abe saved money on this pick... I dunno, maybe Mcgee offered to work at a Verizon concession stand during all the home games that he isn't actually playing.
