Idk what people are freaking out about, not a single player from this draft class is playing very well except MCW and a grand total of 0 people thought he'd be that good.

...and the Cavs were never going to take a PG.
That was sort of my point, although mine was made in a long, rambling post as usual. The three guys who everyone thought were in the running for the top pick were Noel (out of the year with a bad knee injury), Len (done nothing) and McLemore (has been mediocre at best).
And, none of this is a surprise... Because it's way too early to judge these guys, too. For some reason, it's important to people that they label Bennett. It doesn't matter what the other guys are doing and that all of the guys in contention either haven't played or have struggled similarly.
The biggest difference between Bennett and these others is he's playing behind a guy who was picked 4th overall just a couple years ago and is having a breakout season. So, AB isn't getting the kind of minutes necessary to put up 8 points on 38% shooting.
Cleveland should have picked Harrison Barnes and Jonas Valanciunas. Should have went Oladipo this year. I think you take the best player every time, never draft on need (and wtf does Cleveland need a tweener?? Too slow to be a SF and too small to be a PF).

oladipo has looked like he will be a solid pick once he get's his turn overs down (he's learning a new position at point). Stephen Adams looks pretty good so far. Tim Hardaway looks like a good pick, Olynck looks solid, Wolters is contributing. Noone has looked like a super star yet but guys have shown they will be solid picks. Don't act like Bennet hasn't been far worse than the others so far

Bad timing to bump the thread bud.

It is never a bad time to bump this thread.
No matter what Bennett is a guy picked #1 overall that is already a NEGATIVE ASSET before the end of his rookie year. Guy sucks and will never be good.
No team would even give up an early 2nd round pick in 2014 for Anthony Bennet, a #1 pick overall. Nice job.

Nope, bad timing. Try again in a few months. Or better: never. Get back on your alt.

nice edit. i can only imagine how awkward you are in real life without the availability of the edit.
Anthony Bennett is by far the worst use of the #1 overall pick in nba history and nothing he has done has said otherwise. TonyMontana making this declaration before he played even a single game is just one example of my intellectual genius and superior genetics.
