if for some reason dwight would extend in cleveland, what would you guys think of this package?


Orlando in
Tristan Thompson (had a really good rookie season and many expect big things from him)
Tyler Zeller (some say he is the most NBA ready player out of this draft)
Cleveland's own 2013 pick
Cleveland 2013 pick (fromLAL)
cleveland 2013 2nd
cleveland 2015 1st
cleveland 2015 2nd

5 pick over the next 3 years and the center piece here is Thompson last year's #4 selection.

Lol, it really does tho.

Either way, I think it all ends soon. The rumors are floating around heavier than ever on a Sunday in the middle of July. Makes me think there is some heavy activity happening.

My guess is that he plans on turning some of those bigs into wings.

Because he's a top 10 center who would actually want to play for us. Would still hate to end up with him though.

Zeller is more than likely a backup center at best.

Agree to disagree. A center averaging 6 boards a game on a near max deal? It's one thing if he's a guard averaging 20 a night. But dude can't even rebound.


I watched alot of Lopez living in the tristate area. Dont let the numbers fool you, his ppg numbers were inflated by being on some very bad teams. He has good midrange game and is athletic enough to finish on fast breaks but doesnt even have decent post game . He is also a terrible rebounder for a 7 footer and is also soft on defense. He will put you in mediocrity for the next 5+ years where you wont be bad enough to get a franchise player, but wont be good enough to get out of the first round.

Brooks has talent, but his numbers last year were also inflated by being on a bad team.

so is that no? I thought it is a very good project. you are reported to be looking for draft picks/cap relief. you're getting 3 first round picks, and 5 picks overall along with Tristan Thompson who was the best rookie big last year along with tyler zeller.

Really? A Jrue and Turner back court would be great. Both play great Defense and have a lot of room to grow. Then add in Thad Young that's probably our best offer besides Bynum... And if it's true he doesn't want to be here that PHI deal is without question our best offer
