Cleveland with the weird picks
Tristan Thompson last year and now Waiters. Either they see something people don't or they just suck.

Re: Cleveland with the weird picks
i'm not sold on tristan thompson either. he reminded me of a tyrus thomas, and very raw/inconsistent. tyrus isn't too bad but i'd expect better at that pick. this pick is odd since i don't remember reading anyone having him there...

Example of why bad teams stay bad.

But a lot of people see something in Waiters so I don't know what to make of this thread. lol

Pretty sure they use alot of 'money ball' stuff.
TT was pretty solid last season though, and Waiters could be great.

Re: Cleveland with the weird picks
Dion can get to the rack at will unlike I've ever seen. I understand the Wade comparisons in the regard. It'll be interesting to see how he pairs with Kyrie in terms of penetration. You're gonna have to have a stellar back court D to stop them both.

Re: Cleveland with the weird picks
I don't f*cking know anymore man. I guess we'll see though. I like that we traded the rest of our picks for Zeller though. I think Zeller is going to be a very solid center in the league. Borderline all-star at times maybe.

Re: Cleveland with the weird picks
Did you guys even watch the games? Tristan ended up being a pretty good player. Varejao coaching him all year and he held his own as an undersized center (we had no choice but to play him there). Freaky athletic too. No way he ends up being Tyrus 2.0
