FYI: Cavs fully aware of Kevin Love report. Interestingly, Wolves' Flip Saunders big Andrew Wiggins fan. Does it mean anything? We shall see

Cam, what are your thoughts on Patric Young? We have two legit PF's on the team, Cunningham and Love, could he play PF in the NBA?

Cunningham won't be returning.

I like Young on defense a lot. Good feet, build like a brick shithouse. Very athletic for a man of his size. Would be a great energy guy off the bench that would be fine at PF. Don't expect much, if any, offense from him tho. Lobs, cleanups, free throws and P&R.

I'd be really happy with him on the team though. Actually reminds me of a more athletic Turiaf.

I was thinking the same. He would add athleticism and strength down low. Kid is a beast. But oh well, didnt address much need in this draft IMO

I wonder if any other teams sold their 2nd rounders in this draft. Or are we the only ones that look like cheapskates?

[60WinTim]

Ahh... I see Washington sold a 2nd rounder...

Wolfson: Robinson III 26th or 27th on #Twolves board, per Flip.

I don't understand Flip's big board. LaVine at 7? GRIII at 26? Seem too high. I hope I'm wrong.

[slimcalhoun27 [enjin:6640095]]

I don't understand why they didnt truly address need. We are shallow on SG and PF. Lavine will be a good player, but not sure. Plus I dont see Barea, Bud, Cunningham or at this point....Love. That leaves us with players who truly dont play positions (Brewer, Shabazz, Shved, LRM)

Sad...I like the Bucks, Celtics, Orlando right now.

Draft Express had GRIII at 27...

Flip really valued LaVine's athleticism, explaining the #7 ranking. I like what Flip did. Now we have to wait to see how it all pans out over the next year or two...

Anybody read Ric Bucher's twitter tonight?

[slimcalhoun27 [enjin:6640095]]

If you are talking about his Rumor of Lowry trade, why would Toronto help the Heat out, and then want a future 1st which coul easily be a 28-30 pick. Bosh leaving, and wade still a big three? Plus Melo to join? lol....Sounds a bit Pipe Dreamy!

[Lipoli390]

Get a grip guys... Who cares if we traded a mid 2nd pick for cash? We don't want 4 rookies on the team, and this is no different than trading for a future 2nd, being that you can always buy a 2nd round pick in the future just as easily. (Glen's just earning interest in the meantime)

I think we (people pissed over selling the pick) would have rather taken a Euro stash instead of simply giving it away.

Yes. There is no downside to taking a Euro stash. Selling a pick given the NBA price cap on picks makes absolutely no sense.
