You really think Porter would go ahead of any of McDermott, Lavine, Hairston, Hood or Early in this draft? Let's not act like he set the world on fire at Georgetown, he averaged like 16 points a game. That was one of the worst draft classes ever last year. All of those players have more potential than Porter IMO and those are all guys around the same size and position as him.

Mark Price is gonna work on the hitch this summer. He didn't want to change too much at one time last year and cause the kid to have confidence issues.

If he can get a solid 18 footer it'll change his game completely. Will let him attack more which is where he thrives like game 2 against Miami

Umm, Otto Porter was the best player in the country last year. He scored 16 ppg in a slowed down princeton offense. He was much better than McDermott.
I still fully believe Bennett and Porter will turn into fine players.

Don't agree with Porter being better than Dougie at all.

Otto had a ridiculous SO year and this past reflected that. Defensively, especially.
He'll be fine. Too smart, works too hard to fail. As explained prior, his health and situation (Ariza, desperate coach) did him no favors.

I was high on Otto Porter last year, as I felt that he was the most NBA ready prospect, he was the hometown kid (Georgetown in Washington DC), and he would have been the perfect compliment 3rd to the Wall-Beal tandem, for the next 10+ years (i.e like the Westbrook, Durant, Jeff Green trio early on). Although I understand he had injuries, it was VERY alarming that when healthy he didn't take all of Martell Webster's minutes, and didn't push Trevor Ariza, who got hot late into the season and playoffs, for more minutes. Also when he was on the floor he looked lost and stiff, and struggled shooting. Anthony Bennett was a work in progress and EVERYONE knew that when he was drafted, but for someone like Porter who looked like could be effective from Day One, it's kinda more worrisome.

If Otto Porter was in any conversation for best player in the nation last year I think we know why that draft class was so terrible

The fact Anthony Bennett & Otto Porter were Cleveland's only 2 choices at #1, speaks volumesIf Otto Porter was in any conversation for best player in the nation last year I think we know why that draft class was so terrible

He shoots on the way down 
Stop trying to learn how to shoot and just get a go to move or 2 so you can get to the basket more often.
