As solid of a defender and around the basket as Langford projects to transfer he did not do enough in Indiana to indicate he is remotely close to being a better option than several others that will be available even in a trade down to 8 situation. I could see Cavs having little interest in trading down to 8 & 10 even if the Hawks wanted somebody bad enough to move up 3 spots for, chances are that same player was high enough on the Cavs board to just take them at 5.Langford or Doumboya + Gogo is a really good outcome, only thing is its a really good outcome for the hawks too and well they have those picks...
Is there a reason folks keep mentioning trading #5 to the Hawks for #8 and 10?

Alot of us hoped it could happen earlier but there was an article a couple days ago that I posted that had alot of draft rumblings. It specifically said that if the Hawks landed at #2 that they would have taken a hard look at Culver. Which got some of our hopes up that the Hawks might fall in love with Culver and be willing to move up.
#5 for #8 and #10 really is about the Hawks hopefully falling in love with one guy that could land at #5.
I think ATL wants Hunter and Hayes and if they think they won't get either at 8 they would do 8 and 34 for 5 and the 2020 pick rights go back to Cavs to get one of them. But I would think Cavs would hang up the phone because they could get more for the 5th from Chicago if Garland is gone at 4 and the Bulls want WhiteThis is what I was looking for. A specific (enough) reason that the Hawks would *want* to move up, instead of relying on a hope that the Cavaliers could convince the Hawks to give up two mediocre spots for 1 slightly less mediocre spot. Thanks for the update.
Reddish is a big no from me. Would love to get 8 and 10 from Hawks and draft a wing + gogo but cant see hawks even contemplating a trade
I just hope we get someone with upside who can hit the 3 and is athletic enough to create his own shotWe should just take culver because he’s good and fits our team
Coby white please
