Closer Look: Otto Porter

[Lee]

Setting that bar high Lee. :chuckles:

Not setting the bar low, but using realism. Getting a top 10 player from a draft at the 17th slot is value. Expecting that player to be an all star as a rookie is unrealistic.

 

[Kouki]

Regarding LeBron and Porter, LeBron can play a decent amount of minutes at the 4, and Porter could play spot minutes there, too, depending on the matchup and if he gains a bit of mass. Hell LeBron can play four positions. Non-issue that probably isn't going to be an issue to begin with...

 

[NarlCavs]

Cavs are not good enough and don't yet have enough talent to draft based primarily on need. If players are rated very closely than position should be more of deciding a factor but other than that they should still look to go best player available.

Porter could very well be BPA when it comes time to pick. I go back and forth on it but right now I'd prefer Len.

 

[red.]

Fuck LeBron.

The bitch is not coming back here! Let's build a team that can compete for years to come, instead of hoping for his return.

Porter for me. Once he bulks up, I think he can be our Paul George.

 

[mds]

Amen.

lol sorry turning this into a LeBron thread... and I wasn't really saying anyone really in this forum. I just feel that from talking to some people on here, around the city, etc... they don't want Otto for that reason. I was just stating a point out there how stupid that idea is. Especially since we made moves for LeBron last time and we got burned... as the wise Einstein once said "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

What is really insane is Einstein never said that. Rita Mea Brown said it a book in 1983, well after Einstein's death.

I don't like Porter. I'd be much more willing to accept us drafting him if he just wasn't so trashy looking lol. Why can't he look cleaner or preppier. Like Harrison Barnes

Hoepfully he can become more of an athlete, as surely there is room to improve.

Yeah i remember reading that somewhere, but so many damn people have linked it more to Einstein. So I'm at a toss up. I blame the internet.
