Best Case 2012-13 Cavs Team

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Best case... U get lucky and acquire the 1st pick Anthony Davis. Take the best point guard available with the Lakers pick 26th C J McCollum. Draymond Green falls to the 33rd pick. Take Alex Young 34th pick. This summer acquire Eric Gordon.

sf Alonzo Gee/ Draymond Green
pf TristenThompson/ Antawn Jamison
c Andy Varejao/ Anthony Davis
sg Eric Gordon/ Alex Young
pg Kyrie Irving/ Lester Hudson/ C J McCollum

That's all good except switch Davis and Varejao
 
Best case:

Kyrie/Hudson
J.Lamb/D. Lamb
Gee/Casspi
TT/Sam sam
Davis/Fab Melo
 
Best case:

Kyrie/Hudson
J.Lamb/D. Lamb
Gee/Casspi
TT/Sam sam
Davis/Fab Melo

I think us getting Anthony Davis, Jeremy Lamb, Doron Lamb, and Fab Melo is much better than the best case scenario. I think that would be impossible. Even if we win the lottery and get Davis, we would have to trade up with our other picks in order to reach Jeremy Lamb.
 
PG-Kyrie/Goran Dragic
SG-Eric Gordon/Lester Hudson
SF-Harrison Barnes/Alonzo Gee
PF-TT/Samordo Samuels
C-AV/Fab Melo


Realistic and at least 7-8 seed AT LEAST
 
Irving/Hinrich/Sloan
Beal/Jenkins/Hudson
Harkless/Gee/Casspi
Thompson/Nicholson/Samuels
Lopez/Varejao/
 
Irving/Sloan/Gibson
Ross (LAL + 2nd rounder)/Hudson/AP
Barnes/Gee (6th man candidate. Loggining minutes at SG and SF)/Casspi
Thompson/Jamison ;)/ Walton (cant get rid of him)/Harangody
Varejao/Ezeli

Id like one of the RFA C, but both teams will retain them. No way NJ lets Lopez walk.


Low Budget Ballin'
 
Best case scenario might be close to what actually happens.

PG - Irving / Sloan
SG - Gordon / Hudson
SF - Kidd-Gilchrist (a little luck needed - probably 3-4 in lottery.)/Gee/Caspi
PF - Andy / TT / Walton
C - T. Zeller / Erden

If Zeller gone, I'd be OK with Fab Melo (he could speak Portuguese to Andy). We do need somebody that can play significant minutes at C, with Andy at PF. That would maximize Andy's value. Then next trade deadline let's see the offers we get.

the team above makes playoffs. Maybe even contends for home court.

Very creative, but that team is weak on the front line, and probably starts Andy and TT. I dont see any future that includes Semih, he just hasn't shown any reason to believe he will take advantage of the opportunity. Tyler Zeller is not enough to bring it up to handling Tyson chandler and amare for example, or the nets if they land Howard. It is well confugured to take on the heat eventually, but it will take awhile for mkg to even slow down James
 
Irving-Sloan
Beal-Rush-Jenkins
Batum-Gee-Harkless
TT-Samuels
AV-Asik-Mahinmi
 
Lets not Forget Andy is a natural 4!!! back in the days with z he was a much better pf!

If we get the first pick we would obviously draft davis which makes sense.

with the 24 i would like to see a solid 2. Maybe even trade up the 24th and 34th pick for Minnesota's 17th and draft rivers.

With this draft we would be full of an athletic roster, still hurting in the center position. This would be best in developing a team mixing styles of okc and the timber-wolves. sets up perfectly with the fast paced game that coach scott wants to play.

Best case scenario:

Irving/Sloan
Rivers/Gibson
Gee/Caspi
Davis/Thompson/Sam/Varijao
Semi

Like i said this would basically be having 4 athletic PF/C crossovers. you just have to see who fits the best. I believe Davis will end up starting center with 7'1'' wingspan. then in seccond rotation move him to PF and put andy at C.
