Heytvelt first round?
My over / under for Heytvelt as a first-rounder is 12%. The first poster covered his strengths pretty well. There is better European talent at the tail end of the 1st round (Jerebko/Claver), so it may allow the chance for American-based players to be drafted earlier than anticipated (since Euro players prefer to be taken in the 2nd round).
I actually have the Cavs taking Gibson there for that reason. Gibson is a better defender and has a stronger interior game.
who's heytvelt, dun dun dun
get this man a biscuit!
take me off the hosueeeeeeeeeeeee yeee yee take of the hosueeeeeeeeeee yeee ye
tbpark that's rite
ok but seriously who's Heytvelt, never heard of him. I kno who Gibson is though, don't like him much 4 the Cavs, i like a JJ hickson breakout.
The Cleveland Cavs have a need for bigs and are expected to go big with the 30th pick, last in the first round. Many mocks I have seen have them selecting players such as Taj Gibson, Jeff Pendergraph, or Derrick Brown. I was wondering if anyone thinks Josh Heytvelt has a chance to go number 30 to Cleveland. Of the 4 players, Heytvelt is the biggest. He is highly athletic and quick for his size. He has a solid shot and is great at the pick and pop (ran often in the Mark Few system at Gonzaga). I can see him developing into a solid big man in the league, and may be the big man that gives Lebron his best opportunity at a championship. Does anyone else agree with me??
