2012 - CB draft board "Let's get it on!"

[indeedproceed]

When does free agency begin?

And when is the Trade Deadline?

FA started at midnight last year, but I think this year its starting during the day. Since we're done today, I'd expect it to start tomorrow at 10am.

For 13.20 Cleveland select Jimmy Butler

On behalf of fellow West-Coasters, can we maybe push that to 11 AM at the earliest?

Orlando rounds out their draft by picking another shotblocker....Larry Sanders.

For 13.20 Cleveland select Jimmy Butler

Wow Yoki that's an awesome pick! Completely coincidentally, I was just reading about Jimmy Butler. Here is what John Hollinger said about him last season:

'11-'12   .405   .768   12.1   6.2   1.6   52.6   10.6   10.6   13.9   8.7   12.48


+ Big, overachieving wing who can play tough defense. Smart, great attitude.

+ Middling outside shooter and not a great athlete. May struggle to score.

+ Solid rebounder. Drew fouls in college. Amazing backstory.

Butler's life story is fascinating -- think "The Blind Side," but for basketball -- as our Chad Ford detailed this spring. His career may be less so. A good defender who will probably be confined to a spot-up shooting role as a pro, Butler shapes up as a modern-day version of his namesake Rasual Butler. He can rebound and appears to have a decent feel for scoring around the bucket, so perhaps he'll surpass that projection; either way, he may have a long career simply because coaches love having guys like this around.

But then, he kind of dominated this summer league, posting totals of 21 points, 7 boards, and 2 assists per game, and managed to draw enough fouls to manage an eye-popping 9.8 free throws per 36 minutes, and shot 89% from the line! What a fantastic 13th round choice!
