nbadraft.net says HB and RW to Cleveland

**klamath632** · 06-25-2012, 06:04 AM

How would that make you feel, Cyclones, if the same team drafted both Harrison Barnes and Royce White? nbadraft.net's mock draft has Cleveland taking both.

I agree. I'm okay with Royce going anywhere he can get a chance to play a ton of minutes.

All I know is RW would be a fan favorite versus Perry Ellis at Boston. RW has a lot more off court value than most of these other players.

**klamath632** · 06-25-2012, 08:07 AM

I was actually talking about the fact that one team would be drafting the son that abandoned Ames (HB) as well as Ames' adopted son (RW). I'd feel a little conflicted if they both ended up on the same team.

And yes, I know, I should clean the sand out, but HB still irks me.

WTH does it matter if they are on the same team in the NBA?

If Cleveland did that, they would have a very young core of players on their team. It would be interesting to watch.

**ianoconnor** · 06-25-2012, 08:25 AM

I think drafting HB is a mistake.

**ISUCubswin** · 06-25-2012, 08:39 AM

I love the Iowa State fans that are still bitter about him going out of Ames. Seriously, what 5 star would want to play for McDoormat? And I can just about guarantee if things were the way they are now, he would've come here. He wanted to be with a team that had national championship potential, not fighting for the last spot in the Big 12 standings.

will HB's brand have room for RW

**ISUCubswin** · 06-25-2012, 08:49 AM

And for those upset about how he announced by inviting Gary Thompson and other personnel, he grew friendships with them. McDoormat already knew he wasn't going to Iowa State so I'm sure other people close to the program knew as well.

Let me ask you this. If you had a good relationship with the nations best basketball player, and knew he wouldn't come to your school, would you still go to his announcement?

Plus, every top player does an announcement on ESPN. If ESPN came to you and asked you to announce where you are going on live tv, would you really say no?

The kid was thinking of himself.

ISU =/= Ames

HB didn't abandon Ames. He just chose to go to school in a different state. Tons of Ames High grads do it every year.

edit: I'm not saying that I think McD worked out well here, just that Craig played for him.

You're right, but in ISUCubsWin's defense, Craig committed before he'd ever seen Gmac coach a game at ISU. I doubt he would have committed to us after he'd witnessed a couple years of Gmac Bball.

...not to mention that the guy who was primarily responsible for bringing Craig here,(TJ) is still here.
