    Tony Snell is looking like he could go in the first.
    I like Ledo out that group. Or Erick Green if he falls that far.

    offer Lin, TROB and donuts for a top five pick and draft trey burke. I don't care what analytics say the dude is a future superstar. He has the it factor and that is all that matters. Boom! plus we would then gave cap to offer Dwight max.

    p.s. serious question mark on Lin having any value

    I think Trey Broke will be a great player, ie Bardon Davis ish level, but I think he is completely the wrong type of PG for our system, especially if we sign Dwight.

    I'd like to see snell slip to us, that's likely my first choice, followed by jamall Franklin.

    Id like to trade t.rob to Cleveland for either #31, #33 or both, possibly even dumping whites salary. They have two firsts and doubt they use all for picks.

    We could offer say... T.rob/white/2.1 mill cash for picks #31\#33...

    We would end up with enough cap space to sign Dwight (after declining alot of options) and fill out our bench with three picks to start out the second.

    I think that deal would be worth the 19th and 31st pick. Either way would be fine by me. I just want the chance to get at least one 1st rounder.

    1st priority is getting salary cap space. Getting 1st round pick(s) is counterproductive as a team is at mercy of player to sign letter stating they will not sign NBA contract during 2013-2014 NBA season.

    Meh. I just want a shot at Ledo at #19. I'll settle for E. Green at #31.;)

    Like Joe Joe said, cap space us much more important. Also i think the talent at 19 is.comparable to 31 but much more cap friendly.

    I'd much rather have two very early second instead of a late first early second. The benefit of these picks much better suit what we need and are looking for.

    I'm also not so sure that ledo wouldn't slip to the second.

    Linos Chrysikopoulos, who would have just finished his sophomore year if he was playing in the NCAA........

    measured at 6'10" in shoes, 218 pounds, with a 7'1" wingspan. That's outstanding size for a player his age (he grew from his measurement last year) and for a guy that plays at the SG/SF positions.

    This guy is a huge prospect to watch. His level of skills and mobility at his size are just freakish.

    I like it a lot...good work. It's a wonderful deal for Cleveland. The promise of T.Rob plus White/cash (this is the only way we could move him - maybe a new start for him OR paid for expiring contract and he never makes camp - win / win)

    G. Rice Jr is my first choice (he will not slip to us though, but fingers crossed)

    A signing with smaller trades here and there; we will be set for years to come.

    Would love to see us trade TRob for Clevelands second rounders and us nab Ledo, Wolters and Jaiteh. Sheds the salary for a dwight offer and they all seem like good value in the second round of a weak draft.

    That's when the brain is supposed to use manual correct.
