    I posted this on the Blue Board. This really sucks for this kid. I mean, he stays an extra year in school, and loses millions.

    I hope it works out for him.

    My feeling is that if he came out last year, he would have dropped also. They would have said he is too heavy and needs conditioning. Its possible that he is losing out on millions, but if he gets drafted how many millions do you really need?

    True. I really like what the Cavs can possibly do this year. Heard a little bit of the Cavs trading Andy and ending up getting another lottery pic for this year. I like Andy, but I would do that in a heartbeat.

  • Cavs, or any NBA team, would be wise to take a chance on Sullinger. He's a steal in the late 1st round or early second.

    Not for us.........................KYRIE.............................TRISTAN (beast in the making). I have faith in Dan Gilbert. He is the best Cleveland owner in my lifetime(37). I have not had time to pay attention to much of the Draft Rumors, but I cant wait for tomorrow.

    Andy's stock will never be higher than it is right now. The guy is what he is, because of effort and desire. Now is the best time to deal him. Its too bad that things went the way they have, because he is the perfect fit for a team that is in the hunt.

    I don't see the Cavs taking a chance. He cancelled the Cavs workout. There will be other solid options out there for the Cavs.

    sullinger proves again in sports: when you're projected as a top 5 pick, LEAVE! there's two results that happen when you return: you move up maybe one or two spots, or you drop like a rock. sullinger would have been picked last year between 3-5. this year he'll be picked between 17-30. that's a lot of money that he will never have back

    Final Fours are priceless. He doesn't have kids, poor parents, a wife, or really any reason to need millions of dollars. I'm sure he'd love to be a top-5 guy, but just because his draft stock dropped doesn't mean he made a huge mistake. Money isn't everything, and even if he goes in the late first or second round, he will make a good living playing basketball.

    I've said it before, but I really have difficulty seeing how Sully's game translates to the NBA. At 6'9, he will be a forward. He will need to be a jump shooter, slasher, and limited ball handler. I haven't seen him display any of these skills in college. In college, he plays with his back to the basket as a low post.

    I love Sully, and hope he succeeds, but I have my doubts.

    He has shown a pretty good shot. Doubt he will ever be a slasher, just not quick or explosive enough. I think he has also shown he can handle the ball some, I didn't think his passing was great this year but he was a really good passer his freshman year. I really think if he stays healthy he will be a very productive player, mostly because he is a great rebounder and will be pretty good at it in the NBA even with his physical limits. If he gets 48 mpg, even with his athletic ability he should get around 15 ppg/10rpg. Cut the minutes in half and 8 ppg/5 rpg is a solid role player. If BJ Mullens can start, so can Sully.

    He is going to get blocked alot. He is going to have to change his game offensively or work on getting a vertical. He got blocked so much in college, the NBA is a totally different animal.

    One Future MVP possible candidate, starters and roll players. Not too bad.

    You can't tell for five years anyway. I really likes the pg detroit got from Kentucky, he's another starter with all star potential.

    Also that valcuinius kid the raptors got looked pretty good overseas.
