Milwaukee Bucks: Headed in the Right Direction
Posted on 29 Jun 2012 by Jarael Madyun.
Traditionally, the Milwaukee Bucks are competitive team in the Eastern Conference but typically tend to miss the playoffs by a small margin. Since 2004, the Bucks have only appeared in the playoffs 3 times (2004, 2006, 2010). In each of these appearances, they have failed to make it out of the first-round. This trend may have taken a different path due to recent transactions and the draft. ...

SOUND OFF: Cleveland Rocks! Bottom In NBA Draft
Posted on 24 Jun 2011 by Cal Lee.
The buzz surrounding the 2011 NBA Draft was never really about what the Cleveland Cavaliers should do rather than what they shouldn't do. The hype leading up to the top 2 prospects Kyrie Irving and Derrick Williams made me wonder whether Cleveland was clearly looking for one these guys to be their future or if they were being bullied to take someone because of the hype that comes with having ...

Kyrie Irving stars in the 2011 NBA Draft
Posted on 24 Jun 2011 by Warren Shaw.
The 2011 NBA Draft was not the hit the league had hoped but there was plenty of movement and trades that are sure to have fans shrugging their shoulders. The night belonged to Kyrie Irving who the Cleveland Cavaliers admitted was their number 1 choice all along. All the smoke and mirrors the Cavaliers put out came to an anticlimactic end as David Stern announced Irving's name without hesitati...

Posted on 13 Jun 2011 by Jonathan Wasserman.
7. Knicks, 2010: Jordan Hill over Brandon Jennings, Ty Lawson, Jrue Holiday, Jeff Teague, Eric Maynor, Darren Collison This would have been understandable had the Knicks not desperately needed a point guard. Donnie Walsh, myself and the rest of the Knick fan base felt the same kick in the junk when Golden State grabbed Stephen Curry at the 7th pick. Jordan Hill was drafted at 8, booed, and tra...

The Case for Enes Kanter as the Number 1 Pick
Posted on 12 Jun 2011 by Jonathan Wasserman.
Despite Kyrie Irving's promise as a point guard and Derrick William's productive college career, the mysterious Enes Kanter might pack the most reward as the number 1 pick. Kanter has willingly worked out against competition perceived as “inferior”, while many American prospects shy away from such situations with the fear of a bad day. Considering his infamous 34 and 13 game at the ...

Assessing Draft Needs: The Atlantic Division
Posted on 3 Jun 2011 by Warren Shaw.
Over the next couple weeks I will break down the draft needs of each team in the league grouped by their division in the NBA. I will not pretend to know who each team is targeting as most of that is all speculation anyway. Most teams have glaring needs but may not have the picks or money to fix everything right away. Keep in mind this year's crop of recruits is considered to be weaker than most...

NBA Draft Stock Watch: Who’s Falling
Posted on 31 May 2011 by Jonathan Wasserman.
Falling Kyrie Irving The Cavs are approaching one of the most important drafts in franchise history, and should feel pressure to make the right selection considering the rare position they are in. Does Cleveland really want to take this opportunity to choose a guard who decided to skip out on combine drills and athletic testing, after playing in only 11 college games? Maybe, but while Derrick W...

NBA Draft Stock Watch: Who’s Rising
Posted on 31 May 2011 by Jonathan Wasserman.
Rising Derrick Williams Could you imagine the backlash if the Cavs screw this one up? Cleveland will take no chances here, and should look to select the prospect with the highest ceiling and the least amount of uncertainty. Right now, Derrick Williams is that guy. He's given scouts a much larger sample size to evaluate from, showing a gradual increase in production from the start of his freshma...

NBA Draft Stock Watch
Posted on 21 Apr 2011 by Jonathan Wasserman.
Climbing Bismack Biyombo, 6'9, C, Congo A popular name over the past few weeks, Biyombo has shot up mock draft boards due to his game-changing potential on the defensive end. He's still years away from developing offensively, but with a 7'7 wingspan and an NBA body, his raw skill-set can be overlooked. Biyombo still has plenty of question marks, including his age, but with all the hype an...

Stock Watch
Posted on 10 Apr 2011 by Jonathan Wasserman.
Brandon Knight, G, Kentucky Knight improved his stock after quarterbacking his team to the Final Four as a freshman. He's shown the ability to shoot from the outside, take his man off the dribble, score in isolation and finish at the rim. Knight still has room to grow as a facilitator, but at 6'4 with a tight handle and a quick first step, his well-rounded skill set should make him an attractiv...
