Cavs select Danny Green with 46th pick in 2nd Round 

Post#1 » by Nirvana » Fri Jun 26, 2009 3:26 am

Danny Green 6' 6" 210 pound senior from UNC. He's a guard forward who is probably one of the best perimeter defenders in the draft. He's a pretty good set shooter and has a 6' 10" wingspan.

I am hoping they'll announce a trade where the Cavs land Dejuan Summers for a future second round pick and some cash. Green is a nice start. With the Cavs limited depth, it is important they not waste draft picks as they have been.

Hate UNC, like this pick though. Love his energy and how he plays D.

Only thing that caught my attention was that he's a dancer or something. Would be a great compliment to the team since we do have LeBron and Shaq.
