Waiters has the best ability to get to the basket out of anyone in this draft. His offensive game is prolific, and if he works on his jump shot, he could be a superstar scorer in this league. Pairing him next to [I]Kyrie Irving[/I] was a smart move, and one they made after they couldn’t obtain [I]Bradley Beal[/I]. I would not be surprised at all to see Waiters be the starting shooting guard on [I]Opening Night[/I] for the Cleveland Cavaliers.[/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=#000080][I]Fab Melo[/I], [I][URL='http://www.rantsports.com/boston-celtics/'][U][COLOR=#0066cc]Boston Celtics[/COLOR][/U][/URL][/I], [I][URL='http://www.rantsports.com/big-east-basketball/'][U][COLOR=#0066cc]Syracuse[/COLOR][/U][/URL][/I]: Excellent choice here. Melo was one of the few late first round picks that I mocked correctly. The Orange big man will now go green and join the Celtics. Melo brings great shot blocking ability to the table and alters shots as well. His presence in the paint is a defensive tool of its own. However, he does have to work on being physical and scoring the ball. So who better to teach him than [I]Kevin Garnett[/I]? KG should groom the young Melo to become a top NBA center in the future. For now, he’ll come off the bench.[/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=#000080][I]Kris Joseph[/I], [I][URL='http://www.rantsports.com/boston-celtics/'][U][COLOR=#0066cc]Boston Celtics[/COLOR][/U][/URL][/I], [I][URL='http://www.rantsports.com/big-east-basketball/'][U][COLOR=#0066cc]Syracuse[/COLOR][/U][/URL][/I]: Joining his Syracuse teammate Fab Melo, Joseph heads to Boston with the hopes of winning a title early on in his career. He is a classic swingman, although his offensive skills need some work. However, they show promise. Joseph’s wingspan will help him on defense, something the Celtics are known very well for. The older [I]Paul Pierce[/I] gets, the more help he’ll need. I could see Joseph taking some minutes at small forward next season[/COLOR][/B] [URL='http://www.rantsports.com/big-east-basketball/2012/06/30/outlook-for-big-east-prospects-in-the-nba-draft/'][B][COLOR=#000080][U]RS[/U][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [URL='http://www.google.com/url?sa=X&q=http://boston.sbnation.com/boston-celtics/2012/6/30/3127357/nba-draft-2012-results-fab-melo-boston-celtics&ct=ga&cad=CAEQAhgAIAAoATACOAJAiMi7_wRIAVAAWABiAmVu&cd=AUOZM2LMIoQ&usg=AFQjCNGk9UUdWJp2Isv607W15iv3UhdNaw'][COLOR=#1111cc][B][COLOR=#000080][U]NBA Draft 2012: What The Boston Celtics Are Getting In Fab Melo[/U][/COLOR][/B][/COLOR][/URL] [URL='http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=newssearch&cd=9&ved=0CEgQqQIwCA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.waitingfornextyear.com%2F2012%2F06%2Ftalking-myself-into-dion-waiters%2F&ei=0UbvT5K-OML10gHl0JX7Ag&usg=AFQjCNE1OwPj-cXJBzav9hICflGCKV23ew&sig2=F8oUIwgk4Zr36cHVGX54Fw'][B][COLOR=#000080][U]Talking Myself into Dion Waiters[/U][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [URL='http://insidetheloudhouse.com/2012/06/30/dion-waiters-introduced-as-a-cavalier-whether-cleveland-fans-like-it-or-not/'][B][COLOR=#000080][U]Dion Waiters Introduced As A Cavalier Whether Cleveland Fans Like It Or Not‎[/U][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [URL='http://www.google.com/url?sa=X&q=http://www.waitingfornextyear.com/2012/06/cleveland-cavaliers-not-on-flynns-list-of-preferred-destinations/&ct=ga&cad=CAcQAhgAIAAoATABOAFA6pG5_wRIAVAAWABiAmVu&cd=SEF0fMLwXWA&usg=AFQjCNHYaTW7nnsLMNCHQ4H0d60Us7nJjA'][COLOR=#1111cc][B][COLOR=#000080][U]Cleveland Cavaliers not on Flynn's list of preferred destinations[/U][/COLOR][/B][/COLOR][/URL] [URL='http://www.google.com/url?sa=X&q=http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1238930-syracuse-basketball-6-must-win-games-on-syracuses-2012-13-schedule&ct=ga&cad=CAEQAhgAIAAoATAEOARA3oO5_wRIAVAAWABiAmVu&cd=6OrBOsfMoQ8&usg=AFQjCNEK40NFA3C9KV1bWVCKSmVghyyYMA'][COLOR=#1111cc][B][COLOR=#000080][U]Syracuse Basketball: 6 Must-Win Games on Syracuse's 2012-13 Schedule[/U][/COLOR][/B][/COLOR][/URL] [URL='http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=newssearch&cd=1&ved=0CDIQqQIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fboston.sbnation.com%2Fboston-celtics%2F2012%2F7%2F1%2F3129278%2Fnba-draft-2012-results-kris-joseph-boston-celtics&ei=VdTvT63xJ-S26wHZr62UBg&usg=AFQjCNG-MvY4oJgyCLszZmBs0vb27si_ug&sig2=XEn7di1aCkuMF31CHhN_RA'][B][COLOR=#000080][U]NBA Draft 2012: What The Boston Celtics Are Getting In Kris Joseph[/U][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [/QUOTE]
