NBA DRAFT LOTTERY COULD DETERMINE THE PLAYER AND COACH FOR THE CAVS

Tuesday night’s NBA Draft lottery is important in so many ways for the Cavs. First they’ll find out where they’ll be picking. They have a 1.7% chance of getting the first overall pick out of the number #9 spot. It has happened once before when the Bulls entered the lottery in the 9th spot and ended up winning the lottery in 2008 and selected Derrick Rose first overall. The Cavs also have a 2% chance of landing the second pick and a 2.4% chance of getting the third pick in the draft. That’s a 6.1% chance of moving up into the top three picks to have a shot at Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker or Joel Embiid.

But don’t forget other teams could leap frog the Cavs and bump them back to 10th, 11th or 12th spot.  However in the history of the lottery, 81% of the time the team in the 9th spot has selected 9th. That’s what happens when you don’t have enough ping pong balls in the hopper.

The second reason Tuesday night’s draft lottery is so important is that potential coaching candidates will be watching to see where the Cavs end up picking in the lottery and that could have a major effect on whether or not a candidate would consider the Cavs. Remember the Lakers, Knicks, Jazz and Timberwolves all have coaching openings and are all in the lottery just like the Cavs.

The third reason the lottery is important to the Cavs is it will allow them to set up their first interviews with the coaching candidates on their list. My sources tell me that the Cavaliers have not interviewed any coaches yet, but will start in earnest post lottery. The front office, led by new general manager David Griffin, reportedly has been putting together a coaching list and the traits they’re looking for in their next head coach.

My first choice remains current Iowa St. head coach Fred Hoiberg. But sources tell me he may not want to leave the college ranks for the NBA just yet.  However, if I’m the Cavs I make that phone call and have him tell me no before you scratch him off your list.

The other names the Cavs could be considering are Adrian Griffin, Alvin Gentry, Mike D’Antoni, Coach K., Tom Izzo, John Calipari, Alex Jenson, Lionel Hollins, Nate McMillan, Mark Jackson, Vinnie Del Negro, George Karl, and David Fizdale. Leave no stone unturned. I may be missing a candidate or two, but you get the idea. Put a huge list together; see who has the traits you’re looking for in your next head coach and then make a phone call and see if they’re interested.

So the wheels will be put in motion once the draft lottery is decided. G.M. David Griffin will be representing the Cavs on stage Tuesday, not Nick Gilbert. Here’s hoping some of Nick’s luck rubs off on Griff so he can bring back one of the top three picks. If he does, that would make the Cavs job extremely desirable to all of the potential coaching candidates!

  12. 対応がとても早くて、驚きました。
    梱包がとても綺麗で新品を購入したとは思えませんでした。
    ★ルイヴィトン★モノグラム★ノエ★巾着型ショルダーバッグ★M42224(旧型)★
    とてもよい品でした。
    ジャンク品に近い品を、破格値で購入したいと思って探していたところ、見つけたのがこのバッグでした。
    誰が見ても一目でブランドバックだとわかる、ヴィトンのバッグでよれよれの使い古しを購入するのが私の望みでした。若い頃からずっと使っていると言えるし、雨の日でも濡れてももったいなくありません。
    正直、にせものであっても、この価格ならあきらめもつくと考えていました。
    (大きく商売をしている質屋さんでも、にせものを本物として高価買取をして、そのまま直営店で売っているケースもあります)
    届いた商品を見てびっくりしました。
    思っていたよりもずっと状態が良くて、自分で使うならまだまだ十分使えます。
    それに、何よりも、本物のヴィトンだったことが一番うれしかったです。
    刻印、製造番号他、自分で確かめたところ、すべてのチェックで合格でした。
    新品とはいえ、4200円で本物のヴィトンが手に入るとは、思っていませんでした。
    実質1315円での購入でした。
    とても満足しています。
    届いた日の翌日から使っています。毎日使っています。
    若いときからずっと使っているのでよれよれになっていると言って、自慢しています。
