If I am Gilbert, I am taking a shot at getting both guys in this star-driven NBA.  Do whatever you can to pull off the trades to land both in Cleveland.  There needs to be a “fire sale” on the Cleveland roster, everyone is expendable.

@ Itsme,

I totally agree with taking Williams #1.  He may have a little Blake Griffin in him.  If Cleveland takes Williams at 1 they still can get another PG in either Knight or Walker at 4.  I really do think Kntner will be a good pro.  I’ve seen him in a virtually every Youtube video imaginable(there are only 3) and have seen him look and play better than any other bigs at the Combine.  He even seems to have more mobility than I thought.  If you think about it, there’s not many near 7 footers that can both bang down low and shoot a high percentage from behind the arc.  Of the top of my head – Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, and Zach Randolph to anme a few.  As far as Walker’s game translating to the next level, he fared really well at the Combine.  Surprisingly measured 6’1 and had the fastest times out of any PG.  As far as the pounding goes when taking it to the rim is another story.  He’s no Derrick Rose but could surprise a few people.  Defending the bigger PG’s may be his issue.

But then again, I haven’t seen Kyrie play much. 
You are really all about this Enes Kantner guy, aren’t you? 
I really don’t know if Kemba’s game will transfer too well to the pro game.
